I am a graduate of Cornell University's College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, with a degree in Neurobiology and Behavior. I believe that tutoring not only enables me to help students, but it also provides me the opportunity to enhance my students' passion for lifelong learning. I will begin my studies in medical school in August 2014.As a previous tutor and teaching assistant for various courses at Cornell, I witnessed firsthand the positive effects of collaboration on student exam performance and retention on course material. The best route to improvement is being able to objectively identify which academic areas to strengthen. It is always possible to improve and succeed academically with proper organization, goals, and a guide. I have tutored clients in subjects ranging from the MCAT, physiology, biology, physics, chemistry, SATs, ACTs, Regents, and many more subjects.I took the MCAT and received a score of 34, 12 in Physical Sciences, 11 in Verbal Reasoning, and 11 in Biological Sciences, which placed me in the 93rd percentile of all test takers. I understand the struggles of preparing for medical school and can impart my past experiences and strategies to create a personalized plan with you in order to significantly increase your score. As long as you're ready to study smart with my guidance, the sky is the limit.With prior experience to teaching introductory and upper level basic science courses, I firmly believe you will be adequately prepared for your science classes. At Cornell, I was a teaching assistant for Comparative Physiology, where we were trained in learning strategies and principles of pedagogy. We were assigned to groups of students who showed difficulty in mastering the content for the course. Through using guides study sheets, spaced learning and electronic resources, my students were able to do 1 standard deviation higher compared to the class. Afterwards, I became a Senior Teaching assistant to help other Teaching Assistants in their group sessions. My other tasks included peer tutoring in the Office of Undergraduate Biology in all of the biology, chemistry and physics courses.Through my experience, I have recognized the importance in placing comprehension over memorization on my own grades and the students I have tutored so far. I have been able to help students in various high school and university level science courses and standardized tests to achieve the results they desire. The first part of that journey is to determine what learning style the student is in order to fully maximize their learning potential. Along with proper review at timed intervals using various resources, my students and clients have been able to achieve long-term memory retention and improved problem solving skills. I will ensure you will receive a professional service you deserve just as I intend to serve my future patients with the highest quality of care. As your mentor, I will work with you to fully comprehend the material and excel in your endeavors towards a better future.

After graduating from Cornell University with my Bachelors in Physics and German Studies, I am currently enrolled in the Materials Science and Engineering PhD program at the University of Michigan. I enjoy tutoring students because I was once on the other side of the table! While at Cornell, a physics graduate student provided me with supportive, concept-based, and empathetic tutoring that greatly increased my self-confidence and mastery of the course material. In my tutoring sessions, I use many techniques which I learned from him, and my #1 goal is to empathize with the student and make them feel valued despite their academic struggles. My tutoring sessions focus on helping the student understand the "why" -- "why is equation X appropriate and not equation Y?". From my own experience, this approach allows students to fully understand the course material and apply it in a variety of settings, from academia to careers and internships.I have completed over 500 hours of tutoring at 3 different companies, and have proofread cover letters and resumes for adults seeking new job opportunities. I continue to keep my German skills sharp by regularly watching German television and news, and have achieved CEFR Level C2 Proficiency (highest possible) in all areas of the German language (reading, writing, speaking, and listening).

Scientific curiosity is necessary to inspire the next generation of young scientists. I did not begin to see the possibilities of scientific curiosity until I was 13, and only through a short summer camp. I did not feel very engaged in my science classes until sophomore year of high school, when I found a love for chemistry. Without the encouragement of my scientifically inclined family, I might have lost interest in science long before that chemistry class. As a woman, I hope young girls will be inspired to follow a path similar to mine. While women are 50% of the population, they are significantly underrepresented in STEM fields. I believe that there are many more women out there who might have followed a similar path to mine, had they been given the encouragement and inspiration that I had.Since high school, I have had the opportunity to work in several teaching environments including classroom work, one-on-one tutoring, and group work. In high school, I worked as a teaching assistant in my synagogue’s Hebrew school, where I worked with 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders. My senior year of high school, I tutored three home-schooled children in Hebrew, designing all lesson plans, activities, and tests. Between high school and college, I spent a year in Israel, as I knew engineering would make a semester abroad difficult. For three months of my time there, I volunteered in a grade school English class and after-school program for teenage kids in an underprivileged neighborhood. In the grade school, I sat in the class with the children, and helped them follow the lesson plan to enhance their learning experience. In the after-school program, I worked one-on-one with the students, assisting them with their math and English homework.In college, I had two major teaching experiences. My senior year, I worked as a workshop coordinator for freshman chemistry students. The purpose of the workshop was to give students an extra hour of work per week to enhance their understanding of the subject. I also came up with example problems and challenge problems to complement their homework and better prepare them for exams. My senior year I was a TA for a junior level chemical engineering course. The work was similar to the workshop I taught, with the added responsibility of grading. In graduate school, I worked one-on-one with several undergraduate students. I designed a presentation on data analysis to help them understand the best ways to present different types of data. In my 4 years at Penn State, I mentored and trained 7 undergraduate students to help them complete their senior theses and independent studies. For one year, I collaborated with a 4th grade teacher at a nearby elementary school to create and implement an active science curriculum. I designed experiments, activities, and thought exercises for the class to help them better understand scientific concepts of their curriculum.I completed my BS in Chemical Engineering at Cornell University and my PhD in Materials Science and Engineering at Penn State University. I am prepared to tutor students in Math, Science, and Engineering at nearly all levels. I especially enjoy Algebra, Calculus and Chemistry.

I am a creative whose ingenuity and nuanced insight is devoted to investigating the art of both expression and design. A professional with work experiences spanning scientific research, writing instruction/tutoring, and design in the field of technology, I have not only been able to witness the instrument of writing come into play distinctly for each specialty, but also realized exactly how to help the modern student tackling the ACT, SAT, and college admissions season in all of today's digital chaos. Hire me for a timeless, yet keen mentor who is dedicated to not only helping you get your foot in the door of your dream program(s) and school(s), but inspiring you to gain the type of confidence and understanding that will ultimately help propel you towards success in any and all of your future endeavors, since the art of expression in all of its various forms (for here, we will focus on writing) are oftentimes pivotal towards unlocking the doors you wouldn't have even known existed.

Hello! My name is Adrienne, I am a Cornell University alum, former 8th grade math and science teacher, and current youth worker.

Having trouble with or worried about physical science courses or mathematics? I can show you how to solve problems in ways that will increase your understanding AND will increase your ability to complete them successfully for homework and tests. I am certified to teach physics at the high school level. I taught high school physics for 17 years before going on to further graduate study. I also have experience teaching mathematics at the community college level. I can help you with chemistry, physics, statistics and/or calculus for high school, Advanced Placement or introductory college level. I can also help with standardized testing such as ACT, SAT or GRE.

I am currently a senior at Cornell University, pursuing a major in Industrial Labor Relations and minors in Philosophy as well as Italian. I've been fortunate enough to have teachers and professors throughout my life that were able to convey the importance of education while allowing students to discover their own passions within subjects. This is a method that I have carried with me, that has guided my experiences. While I tutor a variety of subjects, I am most passionate about economics, philosophy, and writing. Outside of the classroom, I do theatre as well as tennis. In my free time, I have an insatiable appetite for reading and writing (my favorite book is Tolstoy's War and Peace).

I received my undergraduate degree from Cornell University in 2004. After graduating, I moved to Madrid, Spain, where I worked for a non-profit organization for three years, and then enrolled in a full time Masters Degree program in International Relations at the Universidad Pontificia Comillas. All of my classes were given in Spanish.Having lived in Spain for a total of over five years, I achieved fluency in Spanish, and I have since tutored students of all ages in Spanish, and I have also worked as a Spanish to English translator for several large companies.I have studied Spanish since eighth grade, so I understand the challenges involved in learning a new language, and I love to see students begin to understand Spanish in ways they may have never thought possible. I am an effective Spanish tutor mainly because I have studied and have possibly even stumbled over the same concepts that my students are studying, so I understand how to explain these ideas in easy to understand ways.I think that it's very important to understand that Spanish is not just a subject in school to be passed, but a living, breathing language, and as the second most spoken language in the world, it will become more and more important to be bilingual in the future.Outside of tutoring, I enjoy playing guitar, reading, playing video game, skateboarding and snowboarding.

I am a student at Cornell University studying Chemical Engineering and Computer Science. I'm living in Tarrytown right now and can help your son or daughter in math, science, or SAT/ACT prep! Over the past 5 years, I've accumulated many hours of tutoring experience. Some of the subjects I tutor include:-HS / AP Chemistry-HS / AP Physics-All Math Levels (Algebra, Trig, Precalc, Calculus, etc)- SATII Math (Both levels)-SAT / ACT Math- ACT ScienceOne of my core teaching methods is getting the student to thoughtfully approach questions and logically approach problems. I believe strongly that a student should be guided through problems rather than simply told whether they are right or wrong (that's what an answer key is for!). A tutor should provide feedback on their thought processes as well as follow through all possible choices when given options such as multiple choice. This way, students can learn to identify the right answer. My age gives me an advantage in that I have been in the shoes of all of my students not too many years ago. Not only do I currently use the information/skills that I help students acquire, but I believe I can act as a role model to encourage students that working hard pays off, and it is in fact cool to succeed in math and science. There is a huge reward for diligence, hard work, and success, and I try to instill these in every person I assist.My coursework has included Differential Equations, Multivariable Calculus, Discrete Math, etc. as well as lots of Physics courses (Heat and Mass Transfer, Mechanics, E&M, Fluid Mechanics), so you can be sure Physics and Math are my thing.Please consider me in helping you or your child, and I will do just that, to the best of my abilities.

I am a junior Computer Science major in the College of Engineering at Cornell University. I have experience tutoring in the National Honor Society in high school, as well as on numerous occasions with acquaintances of mine who were struggling and needed a hand. I tutor high school computer science especially in java and python, as well as algebra (1 & 2) and calculus 1. I love tutoring the math subjects especially, because I feel very comfortable with the subjects and enjoy abstracting them in different ways to help any individual. I believe that success in education is key to building a great life for oneself, and that any person can succeed with the proper work ethic and support network. Even more, I love to see when people I have helped are successful, regardless of area of life. In my spare time, I love to follow college football and basketball and talk about games.

I am graduate of Cornell University with a B.S. in Hotel Administration. Currently, I am a Masters student at the University of Southern California at the Rossier School of Education. Since graduating from Cornell, I have worked as a tutor and teacher's assistant with a focus in English, Spanish, French, and Algebra 1. I have worked with students of all ages and backgrounds from elementary education to adults improving business writing or learning Spanish from scratch. I have a passion for language and enjoy sharing that passion with others. My favorite subject to tutor is Spanish because I know that learning a new language can be daunting, and I like helping students overcome that feeling. I hold my students to high standards and ensure that I work to give them the support and guidance they need to achieve those standards. I am patient and will employ a variety of strategies to ensure my students relate to and understand the material we are working on. When I am not tutoring, I love dancing, hiking with my dog, and exercising my creativity.

I earned my bachelor's degree in chemical engineering, then worked in the computer database software industry as a pre-sales engineer, consultant, trainer, and quality assurance engineer. Consulting in several industries gave me broad exposure to real-world problems and a work ethic that may serve as a role model. I learned to listen to problems and come up with creative and practical solutions. As a trainer and pre-sales engineer, I co-wrote a tutorial, created class materials, and made many technical presentations about "leading edge" software, and so became skilled at explaining complex concepts. My work in QA reinforced my obsession with quality and gave me a good eye for seeing and diagnosing errors, which applies to student errors and misunderstandings.I have tutored on and off since my college days, in math, science and ESL. I approach tutoring with a positive attitude, a good ear for listening, patience, respect, and humor. I have a bias toward deep understanding rather than rote memorization.

I am a dedicated student at Cornell University's Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management with a passion for equity in education. Outside of school, I have experience in quantum computing research at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory, business management research at the UPenn's Wharton School of Business, and genetic engineering research at the University of Maryland. I am happy to tutor students in math, English, and more! With a commitment to helping students excel through engaging, personalized instruction, I strive to make learning enjoyable and tailored to each student's unique needs and strengths. I'm willing to support students in any way they need!

I show students how math connects to what they already know. Students are often overwhelmed with the many different topics and symbols of mathematics. I break things down into bite-sized pieces and show how they all connect.

My name is Apoorva and I am a rising senior at Cornell University. I am majoring in Chemical Engineering and minoring in business. I have been teaching since high school and have been conducting my own 2 hour weekly supplemental course in math and chemistry for the past 2 years. I have TAed many Chemical Engineering courses such as introduction to chemical engineering, chemical engineering process and design, and reactor design& kinetics. I love helping people understand difficult concepts. I look forward to working with you!

I tutor because it is fun and rewarding. I love sharing my knowledge with others and help students get past learning hurdles. I have more than 5 years of tutoring experience and experience tutoring elementary students all the way up to college students.Currently I am a sophomore at Cornell University studying neuroscience as my major and math as my minor. Even at college I have continued tutoring. I am on the E-board for our tutoring club. I also lead a study section for college students currently taking Comparative Physiology.For Varsity Tutors I tutor in the following subjects: biology, psychology, algebra, geometry, calculus, Latin, statistics, test prep, essay editing, writing, and reading.

I am currently an undergraduate student at Cornell University studying Biological sciences. At school, I am involved in research regarding Veterinary Oncology to uncover more about treating lymphoma in dogs. I have also worked with MedLife, a medical brigade organization, to bring medical care and education to Lima, Peru. Outside of classes, I dance as a member of a Korean hip-hop dance group. Currently during the summer I am working as a clinic instructor for a learning center geared towards individuals with learning disabilities. I have a strong interest in working with children, and young adults, having tutored since middle school and spent a year as a teaching assistant for elementary reading and math.I have excelled in many standardized tests, including PSAT, SAT, SAT II, and AP tests, and I am happy to offer tutoring regarding both subject matter and test-taking strategies. I am also able to assist in test prep for the ISEE, HSPT, and SSAT tests. I especially have an interest in teaching subjects in math and science, including Biology, Psychology, Chemistry, and Physics. I also love helping students with essays and helping students structure their writing to convey their ideas in the best way possible. As an undergraduate college student, I am also happy to help high school students develop their personal statements and offer advice about the college application process.As an immigrant from South Korea, I received a lot of tutoring and extra classes to get my English skills up to the level of my peers. As such, I am a strong believer in passing on not only what I have learned, but also the dedication that others had when teaching me. When I teach, I dissect harder problems into simpler ones and emphasize learning the principles behind the problems. This way, I emphasize the essential concepts instead of encouraging the student to simply memorize facts. I believe that all students should have the same opportunities that I was given, and I am here to help them develop the tools that they can use to succeed!

With a B.S. in Developmental Psychology and preschool education training from Cornell University and a M.Ed in International Education from Harvard University, I became an elementary school teacher at the United Nations International School in New York City. I loved teaching here because of the multicultural atmosphere. I loved interacting with international students and learning about different cultures.I presently tutor at the elementary school level and I especially love teaching math because it's like puzzles to figure out. I use many visual aids and really believe in breaking down everything to the basics and my motto is review, review and review. I believe it's important to go over things because we all forget and that's ok.

Hi, I am currently studying Computer Science at Cornell University and would love to help anyone with STEM related fields and SAT/ACT Math test prep.

My teaching experience began in high school, when my dad was a teacher at a weekend Chinese school in Westchester County, New York. I substituted for him while he went to China for a few weeks. The students loved me even though I wasn't that much older than them (they were middle school students). After college I spent a year in Beijing and tutored adults in English and Chinese. In 2007 I taught a GRE class at Baruch College in Manhattan. In 2007 I began working on Wall Street while volunteering after work. Most recently from 2012-2014 I was a volunteer tutor at the Fresh Air Fund in midtown Manhattan, where I worked with inner city middle school students after school on a one-on-one basis (two hour sessions once to twice a week).I love tutoring and I am comfortable tutoring all subjects ranging from Math, English, Foreign Languages (beginner to advanced Mandarin or French, beginner Spanish), Social Studies, History, Science and test-preparation.

I graduated from Cornell University in 2016 with dual bachelor degrees in biological engineering and biological sciences. Within biology, I concentrated in computational biology with an additionally strong focus in ecology and ecological applications of computation. I am currently working on my doctorate in Environment and Resources at Wisconsin-Madison, studying tiger ecology and conservation with sub-field foci on predator ecology, and modeling population dynamics.My tutoring strategy is to tackle topics of highest combined difficulty and priority first, and to do so in a manner that accommodates both myself and my student. I've found in past teaching experiences that the most rewarding and meaningful results come from direct engagement with students, and so that is what I aim to do. I've had experience with several modes of teaching and learning, and I am confident that I can successfully adapt my style to any student's needs.

I am a current student at Cornell University with a 4.0 GPA. In High School, I was a National AP Scholar and a National Merit Finalist. I am passionate about helping students succeed, and I am patient and enjoy walking through multiple methods to help a student find what works best for them. I enjoy helping students reach their potential. While I tutor a range of subjects, I am most interested in and best equipped to tutor students in SAT prep (math, English, and test-taking strategies), history, economics, and statistics. In my spare time, I am likely watching baseball, playing basketball, or watching The Office.

I am a junior at Cornell University studying Biology and Society. I've been interested in science and medicine for as long as I can remember, and I aspire to become a physician one day. Growing up, I always appreciated the value of education and what it opened up for me. I constantly had questions and was always eager to learn more. I've tutored for several years, and my favorite subjects to teach are definitely biology and math. As a tutor, I hope to answer students' questions, help them appreciate their academic interests even more than they already do, and learn more about myself and others.

Hi!My name is Abby and I am excited to work with you!A little about me, I recently graduated with my Masters of Public Health from Boston University. Before that, I completed my Bachelors from Cornell University.I have many years of experience as a tutor and I have worked with students and children of all ages. I have been a swimming instructor, a flute teacher, and an English tutor. In college, I tutored students in Organic Chemistry.I try to make learning fun and accessible for everyone I work with. For younger children, I create games and activities to help keep them engaged. Activities can include skits, using props to help explain concepts, acting out scenes in stories to make reading fun, or using art to help illustrate ideas. I think that hands on learning works best for many young children. For older students, I like to teach using practice problems, and by having the student teach me what they have learned. I have found that if you are able to teach what you learned back to me, it means you truly understand it. I am also happy to accommodate your learning style if you know what works for you! I will work with you individually to make sure that you get the most out of your sessions.I would love the opportunity to help you excel!~Abby

I am a undergraduate student at Cornell University. I am studying computer science in the College of Engineering. I have been tutoring in all subjects since 9th grade, mostly computer science and mathematics and SAT. My teaching philosophy is based on hands-on learning, and the motto of 'practice makes perfection'. The more you face the problem head on and break it into smaller pieces, the easier the problem becomes to solve. In my spare time, I like to go outside on runs and play basketball with my friends

As a recent graduate from Cornell University with a degree in biological sciences and someone who plans to attend medical school in the future, my passion and appreciation for the sciences and medicine is something I consider integral to my identity. My favorite subjects to tutor are biology and chemistry as those are the subjects in which I have past teaching experience in the classroom setting. In particular, my teaching style focuses on rephrasing and remodeling initially daunting concepts and information into bite-sized and digestible bits of information that any student can comprehend. I firmly believe that a lot of what slows students down in the learning process is their preconceived notions of course material. My passion for helping students stems from my experiences as an undergraduate where I can remember on countless occasions feeling lost in the material with little direction on how to approach the curriculum. I can think back to the many times I would have benefitted from having someone who could have guided me through stretches of daunting coursework which led me to become a tutor myself. As a teaching assistant, I discovered my passion for helping students manage their way through courses that many considered to be very difficult. Seeing how they reacted to my assistance reminded me why I applied for the position in the first place and motivates me to help students learn more every single day.

Hi! I'm Mason, a Cornell student who enjoys helping students feel more confident in school. I work best by breaking things down step by step, answering questions without judgment, and making sure students understand the "why" behind an answer instead of just memorizing it. Whether we are working through homework, reviewing for a test, or building stronger study habits, I aim to keep sessions encouraging, clear, and low-stress.

I have tutored and/or taught mathematics to elementary, middle, and high school students over 20 years. I enjoy teaching high school mathematics the most, i.e. Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II, Trigonometry, Precalculus, and Calculus. I am passionate about teaching mathematics because education is about students developing critical thinking and problem-solving skills by forming relationships with their peers and teachers. In my classroom, students learn best and develop those relationships in a safe, respectful, challenging environment that fosters inquiry, authentic experiences, collaboration, and provides appropriate support.

I just completed my undergraduate degree in mathematics at Cornell University, with a minor in computer science. I will be pursuing a Master of Science in computer science at Cornell for the next two years. Teaching has always been a passion of mine, as has mathematics - and I am always eager to share this excitement with others.

My name is Hongjin, and I'm a Biological engineering and Computer Engineering student at Cornell University with a strong background in mathematics, biology, and problem-solving. I enjoy breaking down complex ideas into clear, intuitive steps and helping students build confidence in subjects that can sometimes feel overwhelming.

I am a sophomore at Cornell University studying Computer Science.I enjoy working with students and for the past two years, I have privately tutored students for standardized tests and through the college application process. I believe that standardized testing is not a direct assessment of a student's academic abilities, but rather their specific abilities as a test-taker; my role as a tutor is to instill time-management skills and provide tips on effectively navigating through these exams in order to enable students to become better test-takers.In the realm of mathematics and computer science however, I believe in a proof-based education and truly understanding why theorems work as they do.

I completed my PhD in English at Harvard University in 2016 and I have been working with students for over 10 years. I've always enjoyed introducing students to new ideas and helping them achieve their goals. In the following paragraphs I'll share my background, detail my experience and expertise, and discuss what motivates me as a teacher. I will also explain my approach to pedagogy.In 2004 I graduated summa cum laude from Cornell University. The following summer I earned a CELTA certification to teach English as a second language in London. I then worked internationally for four years in Prague, Rome, Brussels, and Milan, teaching students of all ages and backgrounds. I helped hundreds of students score highly on the TOEFL exam and gain admission to top American and British universities. I also helped many students excel on the SAT and GRE verbal exam by helping them extend their vocabulary and develop their analytical reasoning skills.I left Europe when I was accepted to Harvard University's PhD program in English, which I began in 2008. I received my master's degree from Harvard in 2010 and the following fall I began assisting professors with their courses in Harvard College as a doctoral student. I worked closely with some of the best professors in the world and I modeled my unique pedagogy after their example.As a scholar with a traditional background in the liberal arts, I share my mentors' staunch commitment to the humanities and the Socratic method as the best way for young minds to discover their potential and develop critical reasoning skills. There are so many dubious test prep and admissions gimmicks out there, but the fact remains that America's best universities look for a particular kind of candidate, a well-rounded student who can reason confidently and express his or her pattern-breaking ideas with clarity, conviction, and grace. No matter what subject I happen to be teaching, everything I do as an instructor brings students a step closer to this significant achievement, one which will truly help them stand out from the crowd.Last year I worked full time for a veterans' non-profit, helping hundreds of servicemen and women transition from the military and gain admission to competitive American universities. Recently, however, I relocated to the Houston area because my fiancee, who also has a PhD in English, now teaches at a major university here. While I continue my research and work towards publishing my dissertation, I will be accepting students for verbal section test prep for all major standardized tests (SAT, ACT, TOEFL, GRE, LSAT, GMAT, etc.). I am also available for lessons in any humanities related field, from history and literature to philosophy, psychology, cultural studies, and world civilization. My broad experience as a teacher qualifies me to work with students from middle school all the way to the PhD.I look forward to hearing about your personal vision of success and helping you accomplish it!

I will work with you and your child to develop the best plan of action. Thank you for your consideration.

Throughout my academic and professional careers, I have always enjoyed mentoring younger individuals through activities like tutoring and advising. During my undergraduate career at Cornell University, I served as an orientation leader and student adviser for classmates in my major. While pursuing my MBA at Columbia Business School, I participated in the Harlem Tutorial Program, where I worked across a range of subjects with elementary and middle school students. I enjoy finding new ways to help others through my own knowledge and experience, and always try to use methods that resonate most with the specific person I am working with.

I received a BA in Comparative Literature from Cornell University in 2013, and am currently working towards an MA in English at University of Connecticut. I have experience working with students K-12, as well as teaching First-Year Writing to undergraduates at UConn. I also worked for several years editing my college newspaper, and have additional experience in publishing. I specialize in teaching academic reading and essay writing, test prep and college readiness, and editing and verbal skills.I aim to understand each student's individual goals and approaches to learning, and gear my tutoring sessions to the student's particular needs. I find that we learn best when we understand the "why" behind the content, paired with practical and tangible methods. I have worked with students across ages and skill levels, and with a range of goals.

As a self learner, I understand different struggles that students like myself might come across. I have a great passion for math and would love to share the tips and tricks that I have discovered that are application to not only the liberal arts but also in non academic activities as well.

Hello! I'm a premedical student at Cornell University with extensive experience tutoring students, especially in chemistry at the high school and undergraduate level, writing at the high school and undergraduate level, and SAT/ACT prep.

I am a Cornell University student, and plan to major in Computer Science. Technology is my main passion. I've developed apps and websites, and have taught a programming class to elementary school students, and I plan to tutor computer science and programming.Besides tech, I also like reading, and have a particular knack for the English and Reading portions of the ACT and SAT. My philosophy for test taking success is to know the base material required to answer the questions, know the tactics to optimize approaches to questions, and to do practice problems and rigorously review mistakes. I aim to tutor students in the ACT and SAT using this philosophy, helping them approach it efficiently.Outside of these areas, I also enjoy playing soccer, playing tennis, and traveling.
