As a magna cum laude graduate from Williams College with a double major in biology and computer science, I bring both academic rigor and a compassionate teaching approach to my tutoring. Over the past four years, I have worked closely with students of varying ages and abilities, helping them excel in SAT preparation, high school coursework, and crafting compelling college essays. I have also guided students in navigating the college application process, finding the right educational fit, and building the confidence to pursue their goals.

My teaching philosophy centers on meeting students where they are and tailoring my approach to their unique needs. I believe every student has incredible potential, and my role as a tutor is to help them unlock it by breaking down complex topics into manageable, engaging lessons. I aim to create a supportive and encouraging learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and embracing challenges.

I specialize in simplifying difficult concepts, whether it’s demystifying object-oriented programming or breaking down SAT strategies into actionable steps. I use a mix of practical examples, real-world applications, and positive reinforcement to ensure my students not only understand the material but also feel motivated and empowered to succeed. Watching students grow in their skills and confidence is the most rewarding part of what I do, and I am deeply committed to helping each of them achieve their goals.
