Bio

Please note:
My sessions are highly individualized and personable.
I don't follow a one-size-fits-all program.
I adapt individually to each student. Meeting them non-judgmentally exactly where they are, and helping them overcome their exact personal obstacles.
This method takes a lot of care and attention, which is why I can only work with a small number of students at a time.

This method takes a lot of care and attention, which is why I can only work with a small number of students at a time.

My specialty is the SAT, and I focus on building a deep understanding of the fundamental concepts that support everything else.
My approach is not about memorizing "shortcuts" or drilling the formulas, but about mastering the “why” behind everything.
"Don't memorize when you can understand"

I offer a free consultation so we can get to know each other, discuss your goals, and decide whether I’m the right fit to help you reach them.
