Meet a Durban GMAT Tutor: Shelly J.

Shelly J. was born and raised in Denver, Colorado, and never pictured herself living anywhere else. She describes herself as someone who "has always been good with numbers…they're a sort of universal language and much easier to understand than words, which can have different meanings." Shelly proudly obtained an undergraduate degree in finance from the University of Colorado and during her time there, she enjoyed working as a math tutor in the university's learning center, helping others who didn't find numbers quite as enjoyable as she did. "I was surprised at how much I enjoyed helping others learn," she explains, "and it was so exciting to help them prepare for an exam and then have them do well and be proud of themselves." Knowing she wanted a career in finance and international business, Shelly didn't want to leave anything to chance when it came to preparing for the GMAT. While she completed workbooks, she didn't feel prepared enough and enrolled in a classroom-style group course, certain professional test support would exert a positive impact on her preparation. Shelly prepared diligently for the GMAT, and her hard work and dedication were rewarded when she scored in the 99^th percentile of test-takers, earning countless offers of admission from leading business programs across the United States. 

While sad to leave her supportive family, Shelly ultimately chose to obtain her MBA at the Kenan-Flagler Business School at UNC Chapel Hill. During her graduate program, she took on part-time work as a tutor, "mostly because word got out that I was good with numbers and also good at explaining things," she laughs. Shelly graduated with distinction and was offered a variety of exciting positions with both local and international companies, but she accepted a position that allowed her to relocate to Durban, excited to live outside the United States and expand her professional and cultural horizons. Shelly enjoyed working in the finance division of a large biotech company for more than a decade, but after a while, she began to search for additional ways to make a difference in the world on a smaller, more personal, scale. She obtained a master's degree in education from the University of South Africa, determined to help others enjoy the success she had earned. When Manhattan Review opened an office in Durban, Shelly was one of the first to apply, and we enthusiastically welcomed her to the team. 

Shelly's GMAT prep courses fill up almost as fast as they're announced, and there is regularly a wait list to work with her. Clients routinely provide feedback stating how much they appreciate her impressive background, particularly her first-hand business experience as well as her ability to break down even the most challenging GMAT-related concepts. Shelly is especially proud of her ability to teach students time management skills, ensuring they are able to complete all sections of the GMAT due to proper pacing. Her students have gone on to achieve impressive careers in a variety of industries, and she loves when they reach out and share their personal and professional successes with her. When she isn't offering instruction on acing the GMAT, Shelly can be found enjoying craft brews in street pubs at Umhlanga Rocks, searching for the tastiest samosa with friends, and jogging along the beach with her boyfriend.
