For the past two years, I have tutored elementary, middle, and high school students in mathematics, working with students of all ages and a wide range of skill levels and learning styles.

I am currently an undergraduate student at Georgia Tech, where I continue to build on the strong academic and problem-solving skills that I bring to my tutoring. For the past two years, I have tutored elementary, middle, and high school students in mathematics, working with students of all ages and a wide range of skill levels and learning styles. I have experience teaching elementary math, pre-algebra, algebra, and geometry, both to students who need additional support and to those looking to strengthen or advance their skills.
My tutoring approach is highly individualized because I have learned that no two students understand math in exactly the same way. I focus on identifying where a student is getting stuck and breaking challenging concepts into smaller, more approachable steps. I am patient and comfortable explaining a concept multiple ways, using examples and guided practice until we find the method that makes the most sense to that student. My goal is not simply to help students arrive at the correct answer, but to make sure they understand why their approach works so they can confidently solve similar problems independently.
I am also especially passionate about SAT Math and enjoy helping students develop both the mathematical foundation and test-taking strategies needed to improve their performance. I focus on recognizing common question types, increasing accuracy and speed, and finding efficient approaches to challenging problems. Whether I am helping a younger student build a strong foundation in math or preparing a high school student for the SAT, I strive to create an encouraging environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes, and ultimately becoming more confident in their abilities.

Approved Subjects

ACT English

ACT English

I consistently scored a 34 or higher on the ACT English section across every ACT I took, giving me a strong understanding of the grammar, punctuation, sentence structure, and rhetorical skills tested on the exam. With two years of tutoring experience, I focus on breaking down difficult questions into simple, repeatable strategies that students can apply on test day. I also teach memorable acronyms, shortcuts, and tricks for remembering grammar rules and recognizing common ACT question patterns quickly. My goal is to help students improve their accuracy, manage their time effectively, and feel confident approaching every type of ACT English question.
Algebra 1

Algebra 1

I have two years of experience tutoring Algebra 1 students with a wide range of skill levels, from students struggling with foundational concepts to those preparing for challenging exams. I focus on helping students understand concepts forwards and backwards so they can recognize and solve problems even when they are presented in unfamiliar ways. I teach memorable tricks, acronyms, and step-by-step methods that make formulas and processes easier to remember. I also emphasize exam preparation and teach students how to double-check their work, catch common mistakes, and confidently verify their answers.
Algebra 2

Algebra 2

I have tutored Algebra 2 for the past two years, helping students understand more advanced topics while strengthening any Algebra 1 foundations they may be missing. My approach goes beyond memorizing formulas—I help students understand concepts forwards and backwards so they know why a method works, when to use it, and how to approach the same concept in different forms. I teach useful tricks, acronyms, and shortcuts for remembering complicated processes and recognizing common problem types. Before exams, I help students practice strategically while also teaching reliable ways to double-check answers and catch mistakes before turning in their work.
Geometry

Geometry

I have two years of experience tutoring Geometry and helping students understand everything from foundational concepts to proofs, formulas, and multi-step problems. I especially love using drawings, diagrams, and color-coding to turn abstract Geometry concepts into something students can actually see and understand. I focus on helping students understand concepts forwards and backwards rather than simply memorizing formulas, while also teaching memorable tricks and patterns for knowing when and how to apply them. I help students prepare for quizzes and exams by practicing different versions of problems and teaching reliable ways to double-check their diagrams, reasoning, calculations, and final answers.
Hebrew

Hebrew

I am a native Hebrew speaker with extensive formal education in the language, including Hebrew grammar, vocabulary, reading, writing, vowels (Nikud), and conversation. I can help students at all levels, whether they are learning the fundamentals, strengthening their reading and writing skills, improving pronunciation, or becoming more confident and natural in everyday conversation. I tailor lessons to each student’s goals and use memorable strategies to make vocabulary and grammar easier to understand and retain. Beyond the language itself, I also love incorporating Israeli culture and everyday Hebrew into my tutoring. As a native speaker, I can help students understand the difference between textbook Hebrew and the language they are more likely to hear in real conversations. My goal is to help students not only learn Hebrew, but feel comfortable understanding, speaking, reading, and using it in meaningful situations.
SAT Math

SAT Math

I earned a high score on the SAT Math section and understand how intimidating the test can seem at first. I help students break SAT Math into simple, recognizable patterns and repeatable strategies, making even difficult-looking questions feel much more approachable. I teach students how to identify common question types, recognize patterns, use helpful shortcuts and tricks, manage their time, and double-check their answers efficiently. I strive to make SAT prep engaging and even fun rather than something students dread. Most importantly, I believe effective SAT preparation should be personalized to each student. I help students identify the specific question types and concepts that give them the most trouble, determine why they are consistently missing those problems, and then target those areas through focused practice. Instead of simply completing endless practice questions, we work strategically on weaknesses while reinforcing strengths. My goal is for students to walk into the SAT knowing their personal problem areas, how to handle them, and exactly what strategies to use when they encounter them on test day.
