I specialize in ACT Math tutoring for high school students who want focused, short-term improvement through clear strategies and repeatable problem-solving methods. My interest in teaching math began early through peer tutoring and participation in Mu Alpha Theta (math club) in high school, where I regularly helped classmates work through algebra, geometry, and advanced problem sets. In college, I continued this role informally by tutoring peers one-on-one, often breaking down complex ideas into simpler steps and helping students recognize patterns that made problems easier to approach. These experiences shaped my belief that strong results come from understanding how problems are constructed, not from memorizing formulas in isolation.
My tutoring approach emphasizes recognizing common ACT question types, applying efficient test-specific techniques, and managing time effectively under pressure. I work best with students who have a defined test date and a specific score goal, especially those aiming to move from mid-range scores into higher ones. Sessions are structured and goal-oriented, typically beginning with identifying recurring mistakes or weak areas, followed by guided practice and targeted feedback. I place a strong emphasis on avoiding common traps that cost points and on building confidence through repetition with purpose.
I graduated from Columbia University with a strong background in mathematics and analytical reasoning, and I earned a 35 on the ACT through targeted, timed practice focused on recurring question patterns. I apply the same principles when working with students, tailoring sessions to their current level and learning style. All tutoring is one-on-one and conducted online, with clear takeaways after each session so students know exactly what to review on their own. I am best suited for students seeking efficient, short-term ACT Math preparation with a structured, strategy-driven approach.
