I hold a B.A. in Political Science from Boston University, with additional academic training in Philosophy and Psychology, and have studied international politics at Sciences Po in Paris. My academic focus includes comparative government, international relations, political theory, and academic writing. Through these programs, I developed strong analytical and writing skills and a deep familiarity with AP-level and college-level expectations, particularly in AP World History, AP U.S. Government & Politics, AP Comparative Government, and SAT Reading and Writing.

I have over three years of tutoring and teaching experience, working primarily with middle school and high school students in one-on-one and small-group settings. Many of my students attend U.S. public schools, private schools, or international high schools, and I have also taught recent immigrant students adjusting to the American education system. My teaching experience includes AP content instruction, exam preparation, essay coaching, and long-term academic support. I focus on helping students understand not just what to memorize, but how to think like the exam expects—breaking down rubrics, modeling strong responses, and building confidence step by step.

My tutoring style is structured, patient, and concept-driven. I prioritize clarity and logic, especially for students who feel overwhelmed by dense reading or abstract ideas. I adapt my explanations to each student’s background and learning style, often using real-world examples and guided questioning to make complex material accessible. Whether a student is aiming for score improvement, stronger writing, or deeper understanding, my goal is to help them build skills they can carry beyond a single test or class.
