"I'm an MIT senior graduating with a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering, with three years of SAT tutoring and college prep experience. I scored a 790/800 Math SAT and earned a 7 in IB Higher Level Math, along with 6s in HL Physics and Chemistry. My love for engineering and math, combined with a desire to help students succeed makes tutoring personally fulfilling for me–and something I genuinely look forward to.
I specialize in working with students one-on-one, and my biggest strengths are my patience and approachability. I create an interactive, personalized learning environment where students feel comfortable voicing confusion and asking questions. My teaching philosophy is simple: knowledge builds upon itself, so I ensure students can walk me through concepts independently before advancing to more challenging problems.
In practice, this means breaking down complex problems into manageable, intuitive steps and having students explain their reasoning back to me—this immediately reveals exactly where confusion begins. I know firsthand how transformative the right strategies can be, having improved my own SAT Math score from 620 to 790 through disciplined preparation methods that I now share with students. If you're looking for a tutor who combines technical expertise with genuine care for student success, I'd love to help you achieve your academic goals." less...
