Hi! My name is Peter, and I’m currently a Junior at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, where I’m pursuing a dual degree in Computer Science and Biomedical Engineering with a minor in Math. Currently, I am a member of the honors program in my college and have GPA of 3.9/4. I have extensive experience as I have tutor throughout high school and college in subjects such as calculus, pre-calculus, chemistry, and SAT. I have tutored students in both high school and college and in person and online. This includes peer tutoring as well as paid tutoring from clients.

Reflecting on my own experience as a student, I remember how tedious and unengaging tutoring sessions could be. I often rushed through busy work and retained very little. That’s why, as a tutor, I focus on creating a more engaging and personalized learning experience. My approach involves tailored guidance and study materials designed to fit each student's unique learning style. My goal is to make the material both interesting and memorable, ensuring that you not only excel in tests but also retain knowledge that will be valuable for future endeavors, including job interviews.
