About Sid


Bio

I have an MIT degree in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science with a minor in Design, and studied Latin for a decade. Throughout my life, I taught STEAM topics to grade schoolers as a volunteer or teacher's assistant, and I have been passionate about all of the previously listed subjects.

Before college, I received the Gold Medal on the National Latin Exam 5 times, and the Silver Medal once. As a result, I won the organization's highest honors by the time I graduated high school,...

I have an MIT degree in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science with a minor in Design, and studied Latin for a decade. Throughout my life, I taught STEAM topics to grade schoolers as a volunteer or teacher's assistant, and I have been passionate about all of the previously listed subjects.

Before college, I received the Gold Medal on the National Latin Exam 5 times, and the Silver Medal once. As a result, I won the organization's highest honors by the time I graduated high school, including a scholarship that encouraged me to continue studying Latin throughout college (not that I needed an extra push!) Having scored 2340/2400 on the SAT (800 Reading, 800 Writing, 740 Math) and 35 on the ACT (36 Reading, 36 Writing, 35 Math, 33 Science), the years I spent studying for those tests under various tutors have informed my teaching style. I am patient and encouraging while supporting my students in getting to that moment where things finally "click". When I experienced that under my tutors years ago, that made for magical moments.

I look forward to helping guide you along the next steps of your educational journey!

I studied Latin for 10 years, including AP Latin and continuing beyond that in college. I was a top Latin scholar in the US, achieving Gold in the National Latin Exam 5 times and Silver once, which led to receiving the organization's highest awards, including a $1,000/semester scholarship to continue studying Latin during college. I'm passionate about the subject and would love to spread that!

I have been working across versions of Python for over 10 years and have used it in my various software engineering positions throughout my full-time career.

SAT Math score: 740. (I took the test once in high school and was satisfied with the overall results.) Though on my practice tests I most often got 800s!
