Experienced Student Tutor | 100+ Hours |Wesleyan University '29

Jed K.

I'm a recent graduate of a top-tier boarding school in Massachusetts, and an incoming freshman at Wesleyan University, where I plan to study Economics and Data Analytics. I’ve spent over 100 hours tutoring middle and high school students in math and history through both school-sponsored programs and platforms like UPchieve. My academic background includes advanced coursework in AP Calculus, AP Statistics, and AP Psychology, along with honors science classes and a rigorous senior English seminar focused on complex texts and critical thinking.

My tutoring experience has primarily been one-on-one, allowing me to tailor sessions to each student's unique learning style and pace. I believe strong foundational understanding is key to success, especially in subjects like math and history where each new concept builds on the last. I focus not just on helping students complete assignments, but on equipping them with strategies to think critically and build lasting confidence in their abilities. Most of my students have ranged from middle schoolers to underclassmen in high school, and many come from underserved communities—something that’s pushed me to be both patient and resourceful in my approach.

What sets me apart is that I'm still a student myself—one who’s recently navigated the same challenges my students are facing. I bring both subject expertise and empathy to my sessions, and I care deeply about making learning accessible, even fun, for students who might be struggling. Whether you're looking to build up math fundamentals, conquer tricky history readings, or just develop better study habits, I’d be excited to help you get there.
