Hello, I’m Zack!
I’ve been tutoring students one-on-one for four years now, and have been teaching in a classroom setting for the past year. I tutor a variety of subjects, including mathematics (most often algebra, pre-calculus, and trigonometry), literature, composition, biology, and history.
In mathematics, I work to build and reinforce a student’s conceptual understanding of a topic and then help them to apply that understanding to the types of problems that they will see on tests....
Hello, I’m Zack!
I’ve been tutoring students one-on-one for four years now, and have been teaching in a classroom setting for the past year. I tutor a variety of subjects, including mathematics (most often algebra, pre-calculus, and trigonometry), literature, composition, biology, and history.
In mathematics, I work to build and reinforce a student’s conceptual understanding of a topic and then help them to apply that understanding to the types of problems that they will see on tests. This allows students to appreciate mathematics on a deeper level – and then turn that appreciation into higher grades! I can help you make progress in mathematics anywhere up to calculus, including algebra, trig, or ACT and SAT Math.
Standardized tests aren’t just math, though – and I can also help you master the rest of the PSAT, SAT, or ACT. As a former National Merit Finalist (1500/1520 PSAT) and a top scorer on ACT (35 non-superscored), I have significant experience with standardized tests, and will be able to guide you to a top score on any of them.
As a Classics scholar, I’m passionate about Latin, and will meet students where they are in their understanding of Latin grammar, syntax, and translation. My goal is to help my students excel in reading and thinking in Latin by building a solid understanding of Latin's fundamentals (such as parsing words and understanding case functions) and translation techniques. Whether it’s first declension endings, passive periphrastic constructions, or dactylic hexameter, I'm eager to join you in your journey with Latin!
I'm flexible with scheduling and will get back to you quickly. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a lesson - hope to see you soon!
