At every stage of education–including test preparation–highly individualized instruction presents both benefits and tradeoffs compared to learning in large or small groups.  Amy and Mike invited educator Dominique Padurano to explore the pros and cons of small group classes vs 1-1 tutoring for SAT & ACT prep. What are five things you will learn in this episode? Are test prep classes or tutoring even necessary?  Which is better for test prep: classes or tutoring?  Which students should skip classes in favor of tutoring? What personality types work best for group instruction? Is test prep tutoring ever a worse option than a class? MEET OUR GUEST Dr. P. (Dominique Padurano, M.S., Ed., Ph.D.) founded Crimson Coaching in 2014 to address the educational and socio-emotional needs of students and families.  A solopreneur, Dr. P. herself provides academic tutoring in many high school subjects; prepares students to take tests like the SAT, ACT, and APs; and counsels students and families through the college application process. After teaching for ten years at New York high schools such as Horace Mann and Scarsdale and writing and scoring tests such as the SAT II in U.S. History and AP U.S. History, Dr. P. used her expertise in testing, deep understanding of how teens learn, and passion for a wide range of academic disciplines to serve students' individualized academic needs. Dr. P. earned her A.B., magna cum laude, from Harvard University and her Ph.D. from Rutgers University.  A native Long Islander, Dr. P. loves open water swimming in the summer, salsa dancing in New York City, and spending time with friends and family.

"Svaki dan, svaki sat" (Fraktura, 2012), 6., 9., 10. & 11. poglavlje Makarska, šezdesetih godina. Sve počinje novom novcatom torbom. Ima bijele i plave pruge te žutu ribu u sredini, a pripada Dori, koja upravo kreće u vrtić. Luka još nikad nije vidio ništa tako lijepo! Petogodišnjak je toliko očaran njome da zaboravi disati, te se onesvijesti. Dora ga poljupcem budi i oni postaju nerazdvojni – sve do jednoga rujanskog dana nekoliko godina poslije, kad se Dora s roditeljima odseli u Pariz. Nakon šesnaest godina iznova se susretnu, i to u gradu ljubavi. Dora, koja je ostvarila svoj san da postane kazališna glumica, odlazi s prijateljima na otvorenje izložbe. Umjetnik je Luka... Iako nema sumnje da mogu biti sretni samo zajedno, život kreće nepredviđenim tijekom. Prvijenac Nataše Dragnić, koja piše na njemačkome, odmah je po objavljivanju postigao izniman uspjeh, a prava za prijevod prodana su u čak 28 zemalja. Svaki dan, svaki sat bezvremena je i moderna ljubavna priča: bezvremena u svojem vjerovanju u predodređenost s kojom dvoje ljudi dijeli sudbinu, a moderna u svojoj spoznaji da je život mnogo kompleksniji. Ljubavni roman kakav bi trebao biti – nabijen emocijama, pun poezije i napetosti. https://fraktura.hr/svaki-dan-svaki-sat.html *O meni: Rođena sam u Splitu. Nakon studija germanistike i romanistike i magisterija iz književnosti u Zagrebu završila sam diplomatsku školu u Zagrebu i Berlinu. Od 1994. živim u Erlangenu i predajem njemački za strance, francuski, engleski i hrvatski. Moj prvijenac Svaki dan, svaki sat (Jeden Tag, jede Stunde, 2011., hrvatsko izdanje 2012.), kojeg vam ovdje predstavljam u siječnju, već je prije objavljivanja doživio velik uspjeh te su prava za prijevod prodana u 28 zemalja. U Frakturi je 2019 objavljen i moj treći romana Krivo je jugo (Der Wind war es, 2016.). U Njemačkoj su mi izdani romani Immer wieder das Meer (2013.) i Einatmen, Ausatmen (2017.) te brojne kratke priče. Dobitnica sam više njemačkih i talijanskih književnih nagrada. *Muzika: "Lullaby" (Album "Promises", 2014), izvođač: In My Blood
