"Hi! I’m Emma L., a recent graduate of Skidmore College, where I earned my degree Magna cum Laude in Biology with departmental honors and a minor in Chemistry. I’m passionate about making test prep and college admissions guidance accessible, personalized, and empowering.

I specialize in PSAT, SAT, ACT, and MCAT tutoring (521 score, 98th percentile), as well as academic support across core middle school, high school, and college-level STEM coursework. I also offer guidance on college applications, personal statements, scholarship strategy, and study skills. My approach draws from both personal success—including earning a full academic scholarship to Skidmore—and six years of teaching and mentoring across diverse settings, from peer-led chemistry groups to EMT training to adaptive dance instruction. My teaching philosophy is grounded in clarity, empathy, and strategy: meeting students where they are, building their confidence, and equipping them with tools that work for their learning style.

Whether you're aiming for a top score or laying strong academic foundations, I'm here to help you succeed—with support that's as rigorous as it is personal." less...
