Teaching is truly one of my favorite things to do! I love breaking down complex ideas in clear, visual, and approachable ways, and I’m always excited to tailor my methods to fit each student’s learning style. Whether it’s creating step-by-step frameworks, using real-world examples, or developing creative study tricks, I aim to make learning both effective and enjoyable. My goal is for students to feel confident, supported, and empowered—not just prepared for their next test, but equipped with skills that last.

If you’re looking for a patient, upbeat tutor who’s invested in your success, I’d love to help!

I have taken Biology and Chemistry throughout high school and have earned top scores. I have continued taking Biology courses throughout college for my major in Molecular and Cellular Biology. I can tutor for general/honors/AP biology, college-level Biology, and SAT Biology subject tests. Biology is a balance between memorizing and understanding. I can help you achieve this balance by working to provide extra resources, diagrams, charts, and pneumonics to help you master Biology concepts.
Essay Writing

Essay Writing

I specialize in essay writing support, from personal statements to analytical and research-based assignments. With years of experience crafting strong academic essays, from literary analyses to STEM-focused research papers to journalistic pieces, I’m skilled at helping students shape clear, cohesive narratives with a confident voice. I focus on structure, clarity, and flow—making sure every paragraph builds toward a strong, compelling message. Whether you need help brainstorming, outlining, or polishing your final draft, I can guide you through the entire writing process.
Personal Statements

Having gone through the college admissions process myself and written multiple successful personal statements, I understand how to craft a compelling, cohesive story that highlights a student’s strengths. I’m skilled at helping students clarify their voice, refine their narrative, and polish their writing so it feels authentic and impactful. Whether you need big-picture guidance or detailed edits, I can help your writing shine.
Proofreading

Proofreading

I have always loved to write, but I am most comfortable with analytical papers and argumentative essays. I scored a perfect 36 on ACT English & Grammar sections, was a writer for UC Berkeley's "Public Health Advocate", have written an honors thesis, and currently compose scientific and analytical client-facing writing in my job. I can help brainstorm, edit, and proofread any writing assignment!
SAT Math

SAT Math

I have taken math classes from pre-algebra to college calculus. For me, math is about understanding and mastering why. For years, I myself struggled with math until I started understanding why things worked rather than memorizing rules and formulas. I am most comfortable tutoring algebra and SAT math level topics, but can also assist with college-level calculus. I can provide simple tips & tricks for you to master math topics and feel confident in your problem solving.
