Experience
I am an experienced tutor with a decorated history of helping students achieve success. I am experienced in both classroom and one-on-one instruction. When a student and I work together, I like to discuss with them how they learn the best and then I structure our lessons to teach the material in a way that helps the student attain greatness. Some of my past success stories include helping students get accepted into prestigious gifted and talented programs, and helping a student gain acceptance into the Bronx High School of Science by helping the student pass the New York City SHSAT exam. This school is one of the most esteemed schools in the city and boasts 8 Nobel Prize winners as part of their alumni.I attended Swarthmore College and the University of Massachusetts-Amherst for my undergrad and graduate degrees. Some of my accomplishments include being nominated and becoming a finalist for the Distinguished Teaching Award at a competitive university. While attending graduate school, I worked as a TA for a junior-level engineering course. I also have spent time volunteering as both a mentor and tutor in a program for minority students and women at the University. As you can see, I have had tremendous success working with students to help them achieve their goals and be successful.In my spare time, I enjoy running and soccer.
