I am a recent graduate from the University of Pennsylvania, with majors in Neuroscience and Chinese and minors in Biology and Chemistry. I have taught K-12 students math/science for 8+ years and have mentored high school students through the entire college application process for 4+ years. As a recent college graduate, my expertise and advice come from an up-to-date perspective on how the college application process works and how to best present each student's strengths, interests, and personality through their applications.
Throughout both high school and college, my teachers, professors, and mentors were the most valuable resources to me, not only in learning material but also in discovering and developing my passions. In high school, I decided to give back to my community and volunteer as a math and science tutor at my K-12 school, working with students of various ages, both in group settings and one-on-one. By working directly with students and their teachers, I've been able to find the best approach for students to better understand material and practice certain skills. More recently, I've continued tutoring math and science, as well as having worked as a college advising fellow for 4 years, helping high school juniors and seniors with their applications, personal statements, and essays. This process includes finding best fit colleges, planning standardized testing, preparing for interviews, brainstorming, editing, and finalizing personal statements and supplemental essays, and taking steps to transition to independent, college life. The students I have tutored have received acceptances to multiple T20 schools in the U.S., along with various honors programs at large universities.
As a tutor for multiple years now, my top priority is providing quality instruction and mentorship to every student, tailoring meetings to each student's needs.
