I'm Rimona! I'm a student at Harvard University majoring in Human Developmental and Regenerative Biology. I earned a 1540 SAT (790 Math, 750 Reading & Writing) and a perfect PSAT/NMSQT score. When I was preparing for the SAT, I realized that the most important improvements came not just from learning more content but from understanding how the test works—recognizing patterns, avoiding common mistakes, and solving problems efficiently under time pressure. That's the perspective I bring to tutoring, and it's what I focus on helping my students develop.
I start by assessing a student's strengths and areas for growth through practice problems and full-length tests. From there, we work through questions together, focusing on how to think about each problem rather than just finding the answer. I show multiple high-yield approaches and help students develop strategies they can use consistently. I also assign targeted practice from official materials so students can reinforce what we cover and track progress over time.
I have two years of tutoring experience, primarily through the policy debate circuit. I provided personalized mentorship to over 25 high school students, working one-on-one with anyone who needed extra support and leading small group sessions to develop analytical thinking, problem-solving, and confidence under pressure. I prepared lessons in advance, guided students through challenging concepts, and offered strategies for approaching problems efficiently. This experience taught me how to break down complex ideas, adapt explanations to each student's learning style, and create lessons that are both engaging and results-driven.
All of my tutoring sessions are online, focused, and designed to help students feel confident and in control on test day. I typically work with high school students in my sessions. I welcome any questions and I'm happy to work together to create a plan that fits your goals. I look forward to helping you reach your best score!
