Hello!

My name is Anna, and I am a graduate of Harvard University with a BA in neuroscience and a minor in education studies. I have been helping students raise their SAT/ACT scores for the last 8 years, and with hundreds of hours of experience and an enthusiastic passion for understanding how children learn, I've broken down the test into a step-by-step, easy to understand process of problem solving skills. Having taught students of every age from kindergarten to adults and running an education non-profit in my free time, I am not only an experienced tutor but a passionate advocate in education.

Throughout my time as a tutor, I've learned that the SAT is about improving comprehension, learning the skills, and building habits that allow students to master these skills. This doesn't just involve teaching a great session, but also being a source of motivation and support for your child, pushing them to excel and adapting to the saturated reality of high school. Getting students through the SAT, the college process, and the demands of high school takes team work, flexibility, and an individualized approach. I also have extensive experience working with kids with learning disabilities such as Dyslexia, ASD, and ADHD, and I am happy to take on students of any level.

Additionally, I've done college counseling at elite companies such as Empowerly, GrowthWise and Prestige for the last 5 years, and I have helped countless students get into top colleges and Ivy Leagues such as Harvard, Yale, Columbia, USC, Wharton, NYU, and most recently, Stanford! Feel free to reach out for references.

I graduated from Harvard University and got into 5 ivy leagues when I applied in 2017. I then worked at the Harvard Admissions Office for 1 year in 2018-2019. I've worked as a college essay reader and mentor for 5+ years, getting multiple kids into Harvard, one kid into Yale, 2 kids into Tufts, 1 kid into Carnegie Mellon, and multiple kids into local state and city colleges in the past. I've also written 7 recommendation letters in my teaching career.
Common Core

Common Core

When I started an education non-profit in 2018, I created an original curriculum that incorporated the National Common Core goals and targets. With this curriculum, I have tutored 30+ elementary and middle school students to achieve high scores on their standardized exams and ensure their graduation. I've also taught common core as a teacher in 2023.

I've been tutoring high school subjects in preparation for the Regents exam for more than 8 years with a specialization in Algebra 1&2, Geometry, US History, and English Language Arts.
