I am a graduate of Georgetown University, holding a Master of Public Policy, a top 10 STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) program nationally. Originally from China, I am now based in the US and have worked with researchers, NGOs, and international organizations to solve real-world problems. My subjects include GRE Quantitative, GRE, Math, Coding and Programming, and Chinese. Due to my practical experience, I believe that the most effective way to study is "learning by doing." I will create real-world scenarios and help students understand how to leverage their skills, thereby gaining a sense of accomplishment. Games, debates, and other interactive activities are also important for students to like the subject and improve their grades. I am confident that I have the capability and patience to be an amazing tutor. My Master's degree is data-heavy, and I accepted the rigorous training in advanced data analytics, statistical modeling, and programming. I was also a tutor for middle school students in Science and Math, meaning I can not only understand the difficult jargon, but also explain it in plain language. While pursuing my degree, I was a Chinese teaching assistant for undergraduates. By designing the curriculum independently, I helped students understand Chinese society from the economy, diplomacy, and family transformation. I am looking forward to meeting you all!

I have spent my life teaching math, both as a classroom teacher and as a tutor, and I love it! My goal is always to make mathematics simple and understandable. I teach by asking questions, both to check for understanding and to allow the student to figure out the concept on his/her own. While my favorite topics are Statistics and Trigonometry, I love teaching all of Algebra too. I have taught both AP Statistics as well as IB SL. Nothing compares to seeing the look of understanding a math concept on a student's face! In addition, I have taught courses in, and tutored, SAT Prep for 35 years. While I do tutor both the math and Reading & Writing sections, I do believe that students can be helped more in the math section. Therefore, I choose to work with students who want to improve their math score more, but may still want some help with the Reading and Writing. Yes, the SAT has changed throughout the years but I have kept up with it and have seen more than 100 SAT tests. I am an expert in SAT test construction and offer many problem-solving strategies for success on the SAT test.

I am a lawyer in the Washington, D.C. area. I tutor in the test prep space - primarily for the SAT, ACT, and LSAT. I graduated from the University of Alabama in 2013, where I was a National Merit Scholar. I then spent one year in the Washington, D.C. area as a SAT/ACT instructor for a testing company, where I taught at four different area high schools and marketed company services to area high school students. I then attended the University of Virginia School of Law, where I was awarded a full tuition scholarship in part from my LSAT score. I also taught an SAT course for the same testing company during my time in law school. My teaching philosophy is simple: figure out what works for you and assisting you in achieving your best score. I'm pretty much always available to answer questions even outside of our tutoring time.

I am a recent graduate of Stony Brook University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Applied Math and Statistics. Currently, I am studying for the FM and P exams in Actuarial Sciences. Mathematics has always been my strongest and most favorite subject. I was on the Math team for several years and participated in various regional Math competitions. I also have years of experience tutoring in formal and informal settings in a myriad of math subjects ranging from Algebra to Calculus IV.

I have a bachelor's degree in linguistics at Wuhan University, a top-ten universities in China. I travel around the world to teach Chinese and make new friends. I have lived in Italy for a year and traveled around Europe. Now, after getting my master's degree at Johns Hopkins, I live in Washington DC. Teaching has always been my hobby and it's my top honor to use my Chinese skills to help learners all over the world! :)

Hi everyone! My name is Karthik Pittala. I'm a current second-year Diagnostic Radiology resident physician at the George Washington University in Washington, DC. Before here, I attended the University of South Florida Morsani College of Medicine in Tampa, Florida. Here, I excelled in academic and research endeavors, as evidenced by research awards and excellent STEP 1, 2, and 3 scores. I attended undergrad at the University of Michigan, where I graduated with honors in Biochemistry while also majoring in Anthropology and Biophysics. I have been an independent tutor through various platforms for approximately 5 years, teaching AP subjects, the ACT, SAT, PSAT, MCAT, USMLE/COMLEX, and providing admissions counseling for undergraduate, medical school, and most recently, residency programs. Through the years, I've honed in on techniques that work for students while also maintaining an individualized approach towards tutoring. With patience and efficiency, I have been able to help students achieve their goals through robust planning and high-yield content review.

I specialize in SAT preparation and enjoy helping students gain confidence with the test by breaking complex concepts into clear, manageable steps. I focus on both content mastery and test-taking strategy, tailoring sessions to each student's goals and learning style. My goal is to create a calm, supportive environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and steadily improving their skills.

I am currently a college student studying biology and Spanish. My teaching philosophy centers on building strong connections with students, encouraging their curiosity, and tailoring my approach to meet their individual needs. I believe that every student has the potential to excel, and by breaking down concepts to be more digestible, I can help them reach their academic goals.

I earned a bachelor's degree in psychology at the University of Maryland in May 2023. I would like to use my degree in a field that involves education, children, and studying child cognition. I have over 3 years of tutoring experience, and math has always been a passion of mine. Thus, I prefer to tutor children in math, but I am qualified to tutor in subjects such as Spanish, science, and English. I find it very rewarding to help students learn and overcome struggles they have in school. Their smiles alone make the work worthwhile to me. My past experience tutoring students includes working with children between the ages of 6 and 16. While tutoring, I try my best to keep the student engaged by including physical and virtual math games, physical learning tools, and other learning instruments designed to make learning more engaging for students. My tutoring style is pretty hands-on, but I also try to sit back and allow the student to think more deeply about the content and absorb the knowledge on their own. Outside of academia, I love to draw, especially with graphite, but I do occasionally use charcoal, colored pencils, and pens. I also love to exercise at the gym, but I especially enjoy hot yoga and pilates classes. I was also a gymnast all throughout my childhood and adolescence, and I was a gymnastics instructor at my hometown gym in college.

I'm not tutoring or buried in my textbooks, you will either find me rock climbing at the Triangle Rock Club, playing Ultimate Frisbee, working on my car, or enjoying the great outdoors (beaches, mountains, forests--you name it, I love it). On rainy weekends I enjoy tinkering with computers and old electronics, playing Pokemon, or picking at my guitar.

I am an interdisciplinary educator with an Ed.M. from the Harvard Graduate School of Education and a B.A. from Dartmouth College. My background is primarily in integrated arts learning and museum education and I specialize in visual arts, history and art history, and object-based learning. In all subjects, I take a creative, inquiry-based and learner-centered approach, designing opportunities for each unique individual to meet their learning goals.

I am a recent graduate from a masters program in biostatistics at Columbia University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in biological sciences, with a focus in neurobiology at Northwestern University. In August, I will be starting a doctoral program in biostatistics at NYU. I was a teaching assistant at Columbia University in my department and also have tutored graduate students and undergraduates privately as well. My primary areas of tutoring are math and statistics coursework in addition to math sections on standardized tests such as the GRE and GMAT. I am very passionate about helping students feel more confident and excited about math. In my spare time, I enjoy running, playing piano, and spending time with friends and family.
