"I’ve been a tutor/teaching assistant since 2009, working with students from pre-K through college on subjects including language, performing arts, college counseling/standardized test prep, and college-level coursework. In college I was a volunteer tutor/teaching assistant in community schools, a member of the tutoring staff for my student-athlete peers, an education fellowship winner, and a teaching assistant.

Currently, in addition, to private tutoring positions, I am a college consultant for Crimson Education, a content creator for an education-tech startup (for which I create videos explaining college-level math and science content), a per diem school counselor at McLean Hospital’s Pathways Academy (where I specialize in working with school-aged students with learning disabilities, anxieties, ADD/ADHD, and autism spectrum disorders), and an asthma educator at Boston Medical Center.

Prior to college, I participated in the math Olympiad, took honors math classes, and earned test scores on the math sections of standardized tests. In college, I earned honors grades in college-level precalculus, calculus 1, and statistics, as well as tutored for statistics. Most recently, I’ve workes as a content creator for an educational technology startup, for which I make videos explaining math concepts and solving problems. Finally, prior to college, math was not my best subject, and I came away from each class with an arsenal of strategies for success that I can pass on to students who need to boost their grades and or confidence in math.

I was a psychology major at Duke. I was inducted into the Psi Chi honors society and awarded a psychology teaching fellowship that allowed me to serve a teaching assistant for PSY 101. I also have tutored higher level" less...
