I am a private tutor with over 5 years of teaching and tutoring experience in primarily STEM subjects—math, physics, chemistry, and computer science. Having achieved a perfect SAT score, I also specialize in SAT/ACT test prep. I graduated from Johns Hopkins University with a BS in Computer Science and tutor mainly high school and early college students.

Tutoring Style

I am a dedicated and passionate tutor who loves helping students reach their potential. I believe in taking a personalized approach, using diagnostic questions to pinpoint a student's problem areas and tailor my teaching to their needs. Whether a student needs extra practice with the fundamentals or help navigating more challenging material, I adapt my methods to guide them in grasping concepts and building confidence.

Success Story

Earlier this year, a student reached out to me before his upcoming SAT exam with a formidable challenge: raise their 1220 SAT score to at least 1300, with only 3 weeks to prepare. Recognizing the tight deadline, we crafted an intensive, focused plan. Using diagnostic tests, I identified his weaknesses, drilled in specific concepts, and reviewed them rigorously. On test day, he earned a 1380, a fantastic outcome that not only exceeded his goals but also showed the power of a strategic and dedicated approach.
