"I specialize in successfully prepping students for Math Olympiads such as MATHCOUNTS, MOEMS, Kangaroo Math, Math League, AMC 8, AMC 10, AMC 12, and AIME. And I am currently an instructor at the Art of Problem Solving online school (the leading school in olympiad prep.)

I love out-of-the-box thinking and olympiads, which helped me receive a GOLD medal from the International Mathematics Project Competition in 2005.

I have been finding pleasure in solving math problems from an early age. I want to help my students experience the joys of the "Aha" moments when they finally independently tackle a complicated math problem.

In terms of teaching, I have been tutoring for over ten years at Ekatutor, and I have an excellent success rate in improving my students' understanding of the subject. In addition, I have homeschooled my daughter for the past four years and believe that every child needs an individualized approach. That's why I continually develop a personalized plan for each of my students.

I am very observant during my tutoring sessions. For example, suppose I notice that my student struggles to understand a specific topic. In that case, I pride myself on finding creative ways to reintroduce the material over and over until the desired level of understanding is reached.

Education:

Bachelors in Math/Economics from American University in Bulgaria.

Masters in Math from Courant Institute of NYU.
