For ACT/SAT prep, I mix instruction in the basics with short, guided practice. (I do not use tutoring time to proctor full exam practice, which I believe is a waste of the parents' money. Students instead do long sections as homework that we review during sessions.) While I do "teach to the test" in the sense that I provide tips and tricks for the exams, I also use the lessons as general college academic preparation as well. Lessons are usually about half lecture, half-guided practice.
I am highly skilled at the English, reading, and science sections of the PSAT/SAT/ACT. (I am okay at the math, and I can help with the math as part of a general program, but I would recommend you pick a more math-specialized tutor if math is the student's main issue.)
For AP and college history tutoring, I have a full range of lectures and slides for all major subjects in both halves of the American and World History/Western Civilization surveys. I can tailor the program for a wide variety of students needs, including exam prep, essay help, research advice, and primary source analysis. Lesson plans will depend heavily on the student's specific needs but will include a combination of lecture and short writing practice.
