Hi! I am a math and science enthusiast first and foremost. Officially, I am a Harvard Biophysics graduate student. I enjoy problem-solving, discussing science, and sharing my expertise with others. I double majored in Applied Mathematics & Statistics and Biomedical Engineering. I love teaching Physics, and I have extensive experience tutoring Discrete Math and Real Analysis. I also served as a teaching fellow at Johns Hopkins University in Probability and Statistics, and later at Harvard University in Stochastic Processes. In addition, I completed a variety of foundational and applied computer science courses in college and applied these skills in various projects. I have been fluent in Java, and today I primarily use Python and R for my research projects. While most of my teaching experience is at the college level, I also enjoy working with high school students, whether in standard, honors, or AP- or IB-level courses.

I graduated with a B.A from Cornell University and majored in biology (premed) with a concentration in genetics. I am currently 2nd year medical student at DUCOM and am passionate about biology, biochemistry and English. I understand the struggle of memorising small details and struggling to understand the big picture conceptually. I look forward to working with students struggling with stem courses

Personal Statement Mathematics is a very challenging discipline. In addition to it being challenging and demanding, it is also intimidating. Anyone who has ever spent hours working on math problems has learned to respect this area of specialty. Academia, however, is seeing an influx of students who enter each course wondering if that particular course will turn out to be the one that will derail their career dreams. Students are fully aware of the difficult task that lies before them and despite their best efforts they are still not successful. As a result, educators have the daunting task of identifying student's abilities, diagnosing and treating fear, in addition to teaching them the new material. A major component of my teaching philosophy deals with the fear component. Let me contest that I do not believe that students are lazy or incompetent but rather they are disgruntled and misinformed; that they somehow strayed away due to constant failures in mathematics. Failure can be constructive as long as it is dealt with quickly and by someone who knows the path to success. The problem is that this usually doesn't happen. Students typically work independently and without guidance. Students typically underestimate the time needed to learn the concepts needed; take too many complex courses while juggling a career and a family; but the greatest cause, in my opinion, is fear and anxiety, fear of not knowing where to begin and fear that their best efforts in the study process will still cause them to fail. As a result, students tend to avoid the issue altogether. As I am nearing my twentieth year as an educator, I am still dealing with this obstacle. There is no simple solution and I certainly will not devalue a student's education. Instead, I have felt that I should simply be honest about the task at hand. We as educators should make it clear that persistence is the key here and that there will be few chances at instant gratification. Mathematics is one of those courses that require a lot of investment in one's time and energy before results are shown. My convictions on mathematics and education in general are that people will always fear what they do not understand. It is the responsibility of the instructor to reduce that fear by presenting the material in such a way that students can understand and ultimately build confidence. All of these things can be done without compromising the goals of the course. Awareness on the part of the student will help immensely in eliminating the fear of mathematics. It is with this charge that I took up a career in education. I wanted a career that would allow me to assist students in becoming exceptional communicators, logical thinkers, and independent learners. By collaborating with students in their own education, we together can bring about successful mathematics instruction and enlist in students a feeling of pride, enjoyment, and appreciation of mathematics.

I am a graduate of Yale University where I obtained my PhD in Neuroscience with a focus in computational analysis of psychiatric disease. Before graduate school I received dual bachelors degrees from The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in Chemistry and Psychology. I have enjoyed teaching and working 1:1 with students throughout my career, including middle/highschool math tutoring with the Boys and Girls Club of New Haven, graduate and college application review with Cientfico Latino, and teaching assistantships at the university level in general chemistry, and neurobiology.

I am a three-time graduate of the University of Notre Dame. I received my Bachelor of Arts in History, and received Master's Degrees in both Education and Educational Administration. I spent 17 years in secondary education, beginning my career as a social studies teacher and then transitioning to several administrative roles including dean of students, activities director, and principal. I currently tutor in English, Writing, and Essay Editing. I have spent time tutoring Vietnamese students applying to colleges and universities in the United States, assisting them with their application essays from concept to completion. I love to teach, whether that is how to swim, how to water ski, or how to write an excellent essay. In any teaching situation, what I enjoy most is watching the fear leave students' eyes as they realize that they can do something they didn't believe they could do. That's why tutoring in college application essays is my favorite. Essays can be intimidating, especially when admission to college is riding on them, but the barriers that cause fear can be easily broken down and every student can be empowered to write excellent essays. I've worked with students applying to nearly all of the top 25 universities in the United States. I take a very personal approach to tutoring, meeting students where they are and walking alongside them to get them where they want to be. When I'm not working, I enjoy doing anything with my dog and anything outside, especially if it involves being under, in, or on water.

Princeton University senior and QuestBridge National College Match Finalist who helps students with college admissions strategy and essays, with a focus on clarity, authenticity, and strong personal narratives. I also tutor Algebra, Precalculus, and Geometry, breaking concepts into manageable steps to build real understanding rather than memorization. My approach is patient and structured, and I adapt to each student's goals, whether they are preparing for college applications or building confidence in math.

Hello there! I would love to work with your student! I was the valedictorian of my high school, earning my diploma with a 4.6328 GPA (the highest in the history of my school), and I recently graduated from Cornell University with a Bachelor's in Neurobiology and Behavior as I pursue God's calling for me to become a neurosurgeon. I was the captain of the Peer Tutoring Lab at my high school from 10th to 12th grade, so I have experience tutoring students from elementary to high school level. Because I understand the importance of fully grasping material and believe that students all approach content differently, I am a patient teacher willing to explain the same concept in different ways multiple times. I strive to create a warm, caring learning experience in my sessions because every student deserves a positive academic support system. I earned a score of 5 on both AP English Exams, a 1530 on the SAT, and won the National Merit Scholarship Competition in 2022. I'd love to work with you!

I am a rising junior at Johns Hopkins University double majoring in Molecular and Cellular Biology and the History of Science and Technology. It has always been a passion of mine to explore the details of science. Within these details, my curiosity engages me to pry and ask more questions. One of the ways I am able to do this is at my lab at Hopkins where I do research and design experiments on the neuronal membrane proteasome. Tutoring allows me to spread my passion for biology and chemistry, while also challenging my scientific knowledge. I encourage students to ask questions, will teach them how to apply their knowledge, and emphasize why an answer is correct. Getting the correct answer is not as important as understanding the fundamentals as to how someone arrives at that answer. I have previous experience teaching science through leading study groups at college and teaching high schoolers at my previous lab the fundamentals of biology, experimentation, and laboratory techniques. Outside of classwork, I have played saxophone for 11 years, enjoy running, and am a big New York sports fan.

As a current freshman at Rice University studying Biochemistry and Finance, I've developed the skills and knowledge needed to situate myself in our world today. From a young age, I've always wanted to learn more. My academic journey, however, had its challenges. The expectations at my competitive high school were often daunting, allowing me to learn to be persevering and self-motivated. Instead of allowing obstacles to deter me, I used them to grow and push myself further. This deepened my appreciation for education and its power to transform someone. My love for science is fueled by curiosity and my desire to understand "why" and "how." As I completed rigorous coursework in school and challenging extracurriculars outside of it, I developed a foundation in academics, problem-solving, and time management. These lessons were invaluable in my learning career; I want to share these lessons with my students. Growing up with a younger sister, I was often her guide. I taught her subjects I learned years prior and helped her navigate her hardships. I found joy as she overcame her academic hurdles and grew her confidence. I believe patience, encouragement, and personalized instruction facilitate an empowering learning environment. College admissions, in particular, were especially challenging. The uncertainty of the process was terrifying, but the accomplishment was satisfying. I want students to feel supported through their process and have a guide through this pivotal time. Every student should know that their dreams are attainable. I am committed to making a lasting impact as a tutor, inspiring students to embrace challenges and develop the resilience needed to succeed in their academic journey. Education is not just about learning but also about building character and confidence. I strive to bring this holistic approach to every tutoring session and help students shape their success stories.

I'm a junior at Cornell University majoring in Biomedical Engineering with a minor in Mechanical Engineering. My academic journey combines a strong foundation in biology, physics, and design, which has given me a problem-solving mindset that I bring into every tutoring session. I graduated from the Bronx High School of Science, where I first discovered my passion for helping others learn. Since then, I've been tutoring for over four years, working with students of all ages to improve their skills in reading, math, and SAT prep.
