I’m an elite Math and SAT Test Prep tutor with 15+ years of experience, an MIT mathematics background, and previously math/science faculty at a private Los Angeles school. I work with motivated students who want top-tier results — efficiently.

Many of my students reach their target SAT scores in just a few sessions, often improving 150–200+ points, with several earning perfect sections. My approach combines high-level instruction with proven strategies for test anxiety, focus, and time management — so students perform under pressure and ultimately need less tutoring over time.

I also support families through competitive college admissions, helping students craft compelling application stories, essays, and strategies. My students have gone on to Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford, MIT, UCLA, Berkeley, and more.

I’ve worked with high-achieving athletes, advanced learners, and students rebuilding confidence across the U.S. and internationally. If you’re seeking personalized, premium preparation with measurable results, I’d be happy to discuss fit.

Finally Getting Somewhere Thanks to Chi!

Chi has had a few sessions with my daughter. I have seen progress and my daughter is feeling more confident! We have been through quite a few tutors, on and off over the past few years, though various platforms. Chi is the first one I can easily say I see a valuable return on my investment. Each child is different, as is each parent. I am not looking for perfection, but progress over perfection. My daughter said Chi has presented things in ways no one else has before and literally "the woman is a genius," as opposed to "she was just as lost as me;" which I have literally heard from my daughter about others tutors. So needless to say, we're happy 😊!

Fantastic Combination of knowledge and caring!

I reached out to Chi to see if she could help my son study last minute on some challenging areas of his Upcoming SAT (specifically in Math). She promptly reached out to me and gave me a few options to meet. I appreciated the flexibility. Then she asked me for data on his abilities and test scores. Again, I appreciated the queries - she was preparing so she could dive right into the material. My son review was glowing. He enjoyed her style and kindness AND he appreciated her getting into the material that he needed help with. She provided him with some tools and practice problems. The reassurance that Chi provided my son made the whole hour! We will definitely be using Chi as a tutor going forward (providing she has time)!

Knowledgeable and Engaging Tutor

Chi tutored my granddaughter for the Math SAT test. My granddaughter had previously had another tutor and had not really enjoyed the tutoring with that person. She was reluctant to try a new tutor, but when she worked with Chi just one time, she was raving about her and wished she had started with her earlier. She felt very comfortable asking her questions and was able to understand an area of Math that she had been struggling with after just 2 times working with Chi. Chi also gave helpful tips for completing the Math SAT. It is evident that she loves her work and really cares about her students. I would highly recommend Chi.

Great Algebra 1 tutor

Chi was very helpful explaining some radical problems in plain English to my son as he was preparing for his test. Thank you for your patience and quick support!

Amazing tutor!

Chi is not only incredibly smart, but she is extremely thoughtful in her approach. She prepared for my son’s session very thoughtfully with his needs in mind to make sure the session went well and his time was efficiently used. She is a great tutor to use when the exams are upon you and you are under pressure!

Calculus Star!

Calculus (and math in general) is second nature to Chi. She understood my son's needs and was able to explain to him the sequence of concepts he needed to grasp to achieve his goals. This clear path helped my son stay focused. Chi was always able to easily break down hard concepts for my son. This, in addition to her caring and warm personality, her ability to stay positive, and her infinite patience, makes her a star tutor!
