About Claire


Bio

I've been tutoring since 2020, when as a UCLA freshman starting remotely during the pandemic, I saw firsthand how many students were struggling to keep up. After graduating magna cum laude from UCLA — with my BA in Labor Studies and minors in Food Studies and Spanish — I trained at several of LA's leading tutoring companies before launching my own private practice.

I've been tutoring since 2020, when as a UCLA freshman starting remotely during the pandemic, I saw firsthand how many students were struggling to keep up. After graduating magna cum laude from UCLA — with my BA in Labor Studies and minors in Food Studies and Spanish — I trained at several of LA's leading tutoring companies before launching my own private practice.

I specialize in Executive Functioning (EF) coaching, French & Spanish (through AP/college level), and college essay writing, while also an experienced ISEE, SAT, Singapore math, and MS/HS core subject tutor. I've had the privilege of working closely with families and students from elementary through college level, at top LA public and private schools including Archer, Campbell Hall, Crossroads, Geffen Academy, Hamilton High School, Palisades Charter, Marlborough, Milken, New West Charter, UCLA Lab School, Westwood Charter, and Windward.

My approach, shaped by my years tutoring during COVID, is not just about content: it's about mindset. I continue to see how years of virtual schooling compromise not only test scores, but student motivation and accountability. Research-backed strategies for organization, focus, and self-advocacy have equipped my students with the skills to become not only successful, but independent learners.

Approved Subjects

Executive Functioning

Executive Functioning

As an Executive Functioning coach, I support 6th-12th grade as well as college students in time management, organization, planning, and more through regular goal-setting, along with tailored systems and strategies that promote structure and accountability. Approaches (ie. paper or digital) are personalized based on student needs. I have helped students with ADHD, autism, and dysgraphia. Middle schoolers develop the self-regulation skills to succeed in high school and beyond, while high school seniors break down their college application process into manageable chunks. College students learn to manage their time effectively and hold themselves accountable without the structure of home or school. Regardless of academic stage, all cultivate metacognitive awareness to understand why their habits work (or don't) and how to adjust dynamically on their own.
Personal Statements

Personal Statements

I have worked with juniors and seniors from high schools nationwide on crafting strong personal statements and supplemental essays. Our process is story-forward, using narrative strategies ("show don't tell," plotting, pacing, voice) to build compelling and highly personalized essays, regardless of word count. My students are consistently admitted to their top schools, whether highly selective (3-25% acceptance) like Colgate University or Macalester College, boasting standout professional programs like Ithaca College, or leading public research universities like Oregon State University.
