About Lena


Bio

I’m Lena, a top-five university graduate with a B.S. in animal sciences on the pre-vet track. In 2021, I graduated as the first-ranked student in the International Baccalaureate program in my hometown. I scored a 1540 on my SAT, as well as the maximum score on five AP exams, including calculus. I also received sixes and sevens in all of my IB classes. Due to the rigor of this program, I understand how overwhelming these subjects can seem. However, I believe that if you approach challenges...

I’m Lena, a top-five university graduate with a B.S. in animal sciences on the pre-vet track. In 2021, I graduated as the first-ranked student in the International Baccalaureate program in my hometown. I scored a 1540 on my SAT, as well as the maximum score on five AP exams, including calculus. I also received sixes and sevens in all of my IB classes. Due to the rigor of this program, I understand how overwhelming these subjects can seem. However, I believe that if you approach challenges with a positive attitude, work each day on the things you don’t understand, and seek help when you need it, succeeding is possible.

I graduated from the University of Florida in 2025 after only three years of study. The credits I earned in high school allowed me to save money and time in college, and I hope that I can help others do the same. I took a variety of STEM courses, including chemistry, biochemistry, biology, and physics. My unweighted GPA was a 3.80. Ultimately, I was successful in gaining admittance to vet school, where I will be attending in fall.

I believe that my personal and recent experience with AP, IB, and college STEM is a big asset for my students. I understand the modern requirements (and struggles!), and I am eager to share the techniques I used to meet my goals. I have been tutoring students on the Wyzant platform for two years in algebra 1, algebra 2, general chemistry, physics 1, SAT prep, AP prep, Regents prep, and IB exam prep. I consider my students (you!) as equals—I will take your opinions, preferences, and personality into account.

I hope that we can work together to achieve all of your goals. I offer one-time and recurring lessons! Please message me with any questions.

Outstanding Algebra II & Chemistry Tutor

Lena has been an incredible tutor for my daughter this past school year, and I truly can't recommend her highly enough. She is consistently punctual, professional, and prepared—always taking the time to review and study the material ahead of sessions to ensure it's aligned with my daughter's specific school curriculum. What sets Lena apart, though, is her ability to connect on a personal level. My daughter is shy and has sometimes struggled with motivation, but Lena has a calm, encouraging presence that builds confidence and makes learning feel achievable and even enjoyable. In fact, Lena is the first tutor my daughter has actually looked forward to seeing! When I mentioned that Lena might be available again next year, she lit up and shouted, “Yessss!” Lena’s approach is incredibly personalized. She’s patient, positive, and genuinely cares about her students’ progress—not just academically but emotionally as well. Her sessions have had a big impact on my daughter’s self-esteem, especially when tackling these challenging subjects. Communication with Lena has also been excellent—she’s responsive, organized, and always keeps us in the loop. I feel incredibly lucky to have found her. She’s truly amazing.

Incredibly Knowledgable yet adaptive

Lena was a great tutor, she went through each problem slowly, yet she ensured that I had a proper understanding of the problem by constantly re-inforcing questions, and overall explains concepts beautifully.

Awesome tutor

Lena is a great tutor! I'm so happy I found her. She is tutoring my college freshman in chemistry and my junior in high school for math. She explains everything incredibly well and both my girls are really happy with her.

Lena is amazing!

Lena has been incredibly helpful in every area that I've need help thus far. I am very excited to continue to work with her. She is always on time and uses the hour efficiently. She has helped me get caught up on work that I am behind on and adequately learn my chemistry material :) Would recommend her to anyone!

Patient and knowledgeable

I am in general chemistry 2 and Lena has done more for my overall understanding of the topic in a handful of sessions than my TA and professor have all semester. She is very sweet and will take her time making sure you understand before moving on. I will definitely be continuing to use her services in the future.

Great tutor, excellent start with chemistry !

Lena was very helpful to my daughter and communicated with her very well. We had a great chemistry lesson online. She is very knowledgeable and patient tutor. Lena is very pleasant to work with and my daughter is looking forward to more learning in the future. We had a first successful lesson with Lena, and I would definitely recommend her for Chemistry tutoring.
