I’m an enthusiastic student of liberal arts and am comfortable tutoring any high school course in math, science, English, and the social sciences. Math and the physical sciences are areas of particular expertise which I also tutor at the undergraduate level, but part of what I enjoy most about tutoring is the variety of topics I work on with students. I try to emphasize each topic’s relevance to a student’s life and suffuse all my teaching with the joy I get from learning.I have been tutoring the SAT and ACT since my senior year of high school and am extremely familiar with these exams. I have tutored for ten different AP exams; the majority of my clients have scored 5, and none have scored below 4. I also tutor the GRE for students pursuing graduate admissions. Standardized tests are not fun for anyone, so I endeavor to make the experience as painless and low stress as possible. I have advised about a dozen students over the past three admissions cycles on undergraduate applications and slightly fewer than that on graduate admissions. While I do not have a long track record, my mentees have enjoyed remarkable success, having earned admission to universities such as Columbia, UC Berkeley, UPenn, Cornell, NYU, and Duke.

I do most of my work remotely, but am open to meeting in person!
