About Me

I am a fourth-year aerospace engineering student, pursuing a minor in Computer Science. With over seven years of tutoring experience, I specialize in helping students excel on the ACT and SAT, as well as mastering high school and college-level math. My journey as a tutor began with one-on-one sessions and grew to include large classes. I taught my first 100-student session through Varsity Tutors. While it was initially daunting, it quickly became one of the most rewarding experiences of my tutoring career. My favorite subject to tutor is Algebra 2 because it forms the foundation for much of mathematics and is essential for success on standardized tests like the ACT and SAT. I believe the best way to learn is through practice, so I focus on guiding students through practice problems to build their confidence and deepen their understanding. This approach allows me to identify their individual needs and tailor my teaching to help them succeed. Outside of tutoring, I am passionate about astronomy and enjoy exploring the skies using my collection of four telescopes. Soccer is another significant part of my life; I enjoy playing and watching the game. By sharing my experiences and enthusiasm for learning, I aim to inspire my students to approach challenges with confidence and curiosity.
