"I'm a graduate of University of Wisconsin-Madison with a B.S. in Mathematics.

Beyond my classroom experience at Charter Schools, I've had the pleasure of tutoring students of very different academic paths and abilities - from an elite Horace Mann AP student to Mathnasium low elementary school students. Since January 2021, I've focused on teaching Olympiad material to Elementary and Middle School students. I’ve been lucky to have used George Lenchner books (MOEMS and Creative Problem Solving) and Richard Rusczyk books. In addition to these books, I also enjoy creating my own curriculum.

As a result of years of experience, I’ve become very familiar with the subject matter. I’m aware of the misconceptions and hurdles that students run into and adjust the curriculum when I introduce topics to make sure it doesn't happen. What makes me a successful tutor is being able to find the appropriate pace and comfort for each student, including high-achieving students. My philosophy for each lesson is to ensure that after an engaging and enriching experience, the student becomes more curious about mathematics than prior to the lesson." less...
