My name is Jubilee Yu, and I am a freshman at UCLA majoring in Computational Biology. I graduated as the salutatorian of my high school and earned scores of 4s and 5s on all of my AP exams, which gives me a strong academic foundation across math, science, English, and history. I also earned a 1520 on the SAT and was a scholarship finalist, and I was accepted to all UC campuses as well as several top colleges. These experiences allow me to confidently support students not only with subject mastery, but also with academic planning, standardized testing, and the college application process.
I have prior tutoring experience in high school mathematics as well as elementary-level computer science. I have worked with students in both one-on-one and small-group settings, focusing on breaking down complex concepts into clear, manageable steps and checking frequently for understanding. My approach emphasizes building confidence alongside skills, since I have seen how quickly students improve once they feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. For computer science, I focus on logical thinking and problem-solving rather than rote memorization, helping younger students develop curiosity and persistence when learning to code.
In addition to subject tutoring, I can help students prepare for AP exams in math, science, English, and history by teaching content review strategies, practice question analysis, and effective study habits. I also offer essay writing and college admissions tutoring, drawing directly from my own successful application experience. I aim to tailor each session to the student’s age, goals, and learning style, whether that means structured lessons or flexible homework support. My goal is to make learning feel approachable and productive, while helping students reach measurable academic progress.
