Hi! My name is Zoya, and I am incredibly excited to help you reach your academic goals. I graduated Magna Cum Laude with a Bachelors in Bioengineering and I will be going medical school in the coming months. Over the past six years, I have worked with more than 100 students to help them find their "lightbulb" moments. My teaching experience is highly versatile, ranging from helping elementary and middle school students build confidence in math, to teaching college-level engineering subjects like drug development and mechanics as a university Teaching Assistant. I also specialize in standardized test prep, having scored in the 95th percentile on both the SAT and the MCAT (where I scored a 517). Because I have worked with over 10 individual tutoring clients one-on-one, I know how to connect with students at every stage of their academic journey. Whether you are struggling to understand your teacher's lectures, trying to catch up for the upcoming school year, or already doing well but looking for those extra tips and tricks to get ahead, I got your back.
My tutoring approach is all about collaboration, patience, and clear communication. In our sessions, we will start by making sure you truly understand the core concept of what you are dealing with. Next, we will look at how your specific teacher or exam board approaches the topic, and then I will share my own unique ways of understanding the material, complete with shortcuts and strategies to help you solve questions faster and with less stress. I know firsthand how overwhelming school and exams can feel; by shifting my study habits and test-taking logic, I raised my MCAT score to a 510 to 517 in just four weeks. I bring that same encouraging, strategy-based coaching to every subject. Whether you are a student tackling new math concepts, a high schooler preparing for college entrance exams, or a university student navigating tough STEM courses, I am here to be a steady ledge of support. Let's work together to unlock your full potential!
