Hi, I'm Lilli. I'm an English Reading and SAT/ACT Tutor based out of Brookline, MA. I also have experience working with elementary-age kids in classroom settings.

I'm a former STEM high school teacher and advisor. Currently I support high school students prepare for what is next once they graduate. I believe in supporting students by getting to know about them both personally and professionally. I work to build confidence and foster a love for learning in subjects that the student may not enjoy.

I have experience tutoring at all levels, and one of my primary focus is to incorporate dialogic discourse into all of my tutoring sessions.
