"I specialize in tutoring SAT and ACT Math, with a strong focus on helping students build confidence, improve accuracy, and develop efficient test-taking strategies. I earned a 790 on the SAT Math section and consistently excelled in advanced math coursework, which allows me to clearly explain both foundational concepts and higher-level topics such as algebra, geometry, and problem-solving under time pressure.

Through my experience tutoring with Mu Alpha Theta, I’ve worked one-on-one with students who felt completely stuck in math and unsure how to even begin a problem. I focus on breaking questions down into simple, repeatable steps so students understand why a solution works, not just how to get an answer. My approach emphasizes recognizing patterns, choosing efficient methods, and avoiding common mistakes—skills that are especially important on standardized tests like the SAT and ACT.

I aim to make math feel approachable and manageable, even for students who have struggled in the past. Sessions are structured, supportive, and tailored to each student’s needs, whether the goal is improving fundamentals, mastering test strategies, or gaining confidence. I communicate clearly, respond quickly, and welcome feedback to ensure students and parents feel comfortable and informed throughout the process. I’d be happy to answer any questions or help create a plan that fits your student’s goals." less...
