I'm currently a sophomore at Johns Hopkins University double majoring in Molecular/Cellular Biology and Public Health, while also minoring in Financial Economics. I am passionate about tutoring because it allows me to help others succeed and thrive, which means a lot to me. I have previously been in situations when I was confused about a subject, and I would love to help out and clear up any questions. Tutor STEM and the SA are of my favorite subjects to tutor because it allows me to guide students through complex problems, helping them develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Personally, seeing students' "aha" moments when they grasp a tough concept is incredibly rewarding and motivates me to continue tutoring.

I am a Bellingham MA Public High School graduate, where I was a French tutor for levels 2 through 5 Honors and Standard, as well as AP French, and led peer tutoring initiatives as an NHS officer, supporting classmates in AP Chemistry, AP Biology, AP Calculus, and PLTW. I am studying Biology and Neuroscience on the pre-med track at Columbia University, where I continue to nurture my passion for helping students succeed. My involvement in three research teams, including one on molecular biology that received international publication, has sharpened my ability to explain complex scientific concepts clearly. While I tutor various subjects, I find the greatest joy in teaching French and the sciences, aspects of foreign language studies joined with the complexity of STEM, being part of the rewarding moments when students grasp challenging ideas. Education is a powerful tool for personal growth, striving to create an environment that fosters confidence and curiosity.

I'm an incoming sophomore at Brown University studying Applied Mathematics-Economics, and math has always been one of the subjects I enjoy most. I scored a 790 on the SAT Math section, but what I'm most proud of is the work it took to get there. I had to learn how to slow down, spot patterns in my mistakes, and understand exactly why I was losing points. That process is a big part of how I tutor. Before college, I spent three years teaching at Kumon, where I worked with students from kindergarten through 12th grade in both math and English. That experience taught me how different every student is. Some students need help building confidence with the basics, while others are trying to push an already strong score even higher. Either way, I know how important it is to be patient, clear, and encouraging. My approach is simple. I meet students where they are, figure out what is actually causing the confusion, and build from there. I do not believe in rushing through problems or making students feel bad for not understanding something right away. My goal is to make SAT math feel less intimidating and more manageable by breaking questions down step by step. Whether you are trying to break 600, reach 700, or push toward a top score, I would love to help you get there. I genuinely enjoy teaching this material, and I will be fully invested in helping you reach your goal.

Hi! My name is Arianna Tabankin, and I am a pre-med senior at the University of Pennsylvania majoring in biology and minoring in chemistry and nutrition. I am graduating with honors (summa cum laude) and remaining at UPenn for a master's degree in public health. After two gap years I hope to continue on to med school. I have been a tutor for UPenn's Weingarten Academic Center for over three years and have hundreds of hours of experience tutoring biology. I also hold a mentorship position to help new tutors flourish in the program. I love to tailor tutoring sessions to best fit the needs of each individual student, whether that be more of a lecture format, doing practice problems, or creating a study plan together. Overall, I love learning about and teaching biology, so I find tutoring sessions to be a lot of fun!

I graduated from Dartmouth College with a double major, receiving a Bachelor of Arts in both Biochemistry/Molecular Biology and Music. I continued my education at Columbia University and received Master of Arts in Biology. Starting in middle school and continuing through my graduate career, I have tutored students in a wide variety of subjects, but I was most effective at tutoring math and science because of my lifelong love and aptitude for these subjects. Since I am also working towards a career in molecular biology, I use math and science every day, and I can explain real-world applications and uses for these subjects that may not seem obvious. By demonstrating the use of math and science in everyday life, I am able to help interact with the student and increase their interest in a subject in which they may experience difficulty. I also believe that as a tutor, it is my responsibility to engage with the student to help them achieve and even surpass their goals. In my spare time, I am heavily involved with music in New York City, being part of multiple choirs and continuing to play piano. I also enjoy exercising and exploring the city whenever I have the chance.

Hi - I'm Peter. I've always had a preference for math and science, which explains my undergrad choice in engineering. I graduated from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute with a degree in Mechanical Engineering. I received my MBA (Industrial Management) from the Wharton Graduate Division at U. of Pa. My primary work experience prior to teaching was in business planning and finance (more math). I started teaching because I enjoyed helping students at Baruch College prep for graduate school entrance exams (GMAT, LSAT, GRE). Later on, I aided community college students to break through their difficulties in basic math, algebra, quantitative literacy and statistics/probability (remedial math courses). Many of these students were the first in their families to attend college. I've been teaching math for 25+ years, both in a classroom setting and, more recently, on-line. I prefer to use a whiteboard and other visuals to present the problems and explain the methodology and steps that lead to the solution. If you are my student I would encourage you to first think through the problem and work it through on your own whenever possible, as it helps to foster self-confidence. Then I can step in and assist where I can to guide you to the correct solution. I like to put myself in my student's place in order to understand what hurdle(s) they need to overcome to solve the math question. I can explain approaches to the solution in several ways until it makes sense to you. I am available pretty much during the week or on weekends from late morning until early evenings and can make exceptions when necessary. I would be happy to hold an initial exploratory session at no charge just so we can get to know each other and agree on what we can accomplish together.

I am a graduate of Brown University who tutors high school students via Skype or in person in the SATs, PSATs, and/or the SAT Math 2 Subject Test. I had a wonderful tutor for the SATs and for the SAT Math 2 Tests, so I understand how the standardized test tutoring process can be productive, fun, and ultimately successful. I also understand the importance of tailoring the process to the students individual abilities and needs. In high school, I tutored elementary school students in math, reading, and writing, and I tutored my classmates at my school's math center. I am passionate about film and film production, and in my spare time I also enjoy reading and basketball.

I am a researcher who graduated with a Ph.D. in materials science and engineering from Penn State University and a B.S. in applied physics from Columbia University. I have found great passion in teaching and mentoring students in physics and materials science, whether through informal educational training activities at the Discovery Space, assisting in laboratory classrooms for undergraduates, or helping students with difficult problem sets for thermodynamics or quantum mechanics. I've seen the best success when students can interact with a complicated concept in multiple ways and pull on their own experiences as metaphors to the system in question - after all, this is part of how science is actually done! Currently in my spare time, I enjoy reading, strategy games, and learning Mandarin.

Hey! My name is Orne Akter and I am an undergraduate student at Harvard College under the majors of Neuroscience and Psychology! After 3 years of teaching Geometry and Algebra at my high school, I have picked up a passion for teaching students like myself! I can teach math (geometry, Algebra I/II, SAT math), English (SAT English, AP Lit/Lang, and general English courses). As I have just gotten through the college processes myself, I can also give deep insight into how the process works, strategies and tips I used to get into Harvard, and essay writing tips!

Hi! My name is Anagha, and I graduated from Princeton with a degree in Computer Science in 2023. I know how difficult applying for colleges can be while juggling difficult coursework, standardized testing, extracurriculars, etc. I'm here to help! I tutor for college essays, tests like the ACT and SAT, and subjects like math, science, literature, and computer science for K-12 and college courses.
