I’m a Stanford mechanical engineering student and experienced tutor with over five years of experience helping students from 1st through 12th grade.

My most popular subjects are mathematics, SAT/ACT prep, and college application support. I've also tutored AP Calculus, Precalculus, Geometry, U.S. History, and English, and have served as both an assistant teacher and academic mentor in school and summer enrichment programs.

My approach combines personalized instruction with guided practice to help students build both mastery and confidence. Whether you're looking for support in a challenging class, preparing for a standardized test, or navigating the college admissions process, I strive to make complex material approachable and engaging.

As my student, I care deeply about your success—not only in your grades, but in your confidence and long-term growth as a learner. Many of the students I’ve worked with still keep in touch years later, which I consider one of the best parts of the job. I’d love to have the opportunity to work with you next!
