Award-Winning ACT Writing Tutors serving New York City, NY

...students from many premiere NY and NJ high schools and universities. I continued tutoring even after joining a major private equity firm because of how much I enjoy working one-on-one with students.

Teaching English as a second language to adults or placing the skill of basic reading and writing...

...scholarship. I specialize in test prep, writing help, and middle/high school mathematics.

In the same way, I approach my students not as an authority figure, but rather as someone who has been in their proverbial shoes....

...refugees. I understand that teaching is about much more than relaying information. It's about non-judgement. It's about overcoming all possible barriers to success. It's about instilling confidence, independence, and resilience. It's about engaging the individual, and finding passion, excitement, and real motivation. If you are looking for more than somebody to simply relay information, if you are looking to truly enhance your learning journey, let's work together! (key words so you find me more easily)...

...South Carolina. For undergrad, I went to Ohio State where I studied English and Creative Writing. Reading is my absolute favorite thing, so tutoring English is my favorite subject!
