"Hi! I’m Lilian. I hold an MSc in Demography and Health from the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine and a BA in Ethnicity and Race Studies from Columbia University. My background combines social science, public health, and quantitative research, and I’ve spent the past several years helping students strengthen their writing, analytical, and test-taking skills.

GRE Tutoring:

I focus on strategy, structure, and confidence-building. For the quantitative and verbal sections, I help students recognize patterns, simplify complex problems, and balance accuracy with speed. For writing, we work on clear reasoning and effective communication. I scored a 170 on the verbal section and feel especially confident in helping students reach their fullest potential in this domain. Every session is personalized to your goals and learning style!

Statistics & Programming Tutoring:

As a researcher and data analyst, I use Stata and R every day. I’ve trained students and colleagues in data management, analysis, and visualization, and love making statistical concepts feel intuitive and approachable. Whether you’re tackling your first stats class or applying methods in research, I’ll meet you where you are.

Essay Editing:

With experience in academic writing and publishing across multiple disciplines, I help students write essays that are clear, well-organized, and true to their voice. We’ll work on structure, flow, and clarity, so your ideas come through confidently and convincingly.

College & Graduate Admissions:

Having gone through the process myself and been admitted to top programs in the U.S. and U.K., I know how to turn a student's story into a compelling application. I guide students through choosing topics, structuring essays, and refining drafts to highlight their strengths, goals, and program fit.

Across all subjects, I aim to make learning collaborative, encouraging, and empowering, helping you build skills and confidence along the way." less...
