"I am a highly experienced tutor (15 years experience) and high school teacher (7 years experience) and former college instructor with a Master's degree in Mathematics from Cambridge University (UK, 2014) as well as a BA in English (Indiana University). I personally obtained ****perfect scores**** on the ACT composite, SAT Math, SAT English, GRE General Math and 11 perfect "5"s on Advanced Placement tests.

Currently, I work as a high school math teacher in Chicago as well as an instructor with Math Circles of Chicago. I previously worked as an adjunct instructor at a community college, teaching college algebra. I am state certified to teach Secondary Mathematics and Science: Physics.

I want every student to fulfill their potential and attain whatever goals they have. No matter if it's passing algebra, turning a good test score into an elite one, or becoming a better writer, I want to help you get there. At the university level, I have worked with students from pre-algebra through Calculus II and Discrete Math. My content knowledge is deep and comprehensive.

I won a major international scholarship, the ****Gates Cambridge Scholarship****, to study in the United Kingdom, as well as a full-ride to Indiana University, the Herman B Wells scholarship. I am a Knowles Senior fellow (about 10 math teachers/year awarded, then completed a 5 year teaching fellowship program).

I want to use the best available technological tools in teaching. I will work with individuals to provide supplemental content appropriate to their needs. Individual tutoring allows me to cater to a student's personal learning style and help them achieve their goals in an accelerated time frame.

*****Online students******: I have been tutoring online since before the pandemic, and now do a majority of my tutoring online. I am very comfortable working with students remotely.

*****NOTICE: I do not provide services resulting in my own work being submitted under a student's name" less...
