This quote perfectly encapsulates my teaching philosophy. I focus on targeted practice in weak areas to help students achieve mastery in a short time. Whether you're preparing for an exam or strengthening core skills, I’m here to help you succeed.

Academic Background and Expertise:
I am a graduate of the University of St Andrews—the top-ranked university in the UK—and I am currently a PhD candidate in Chemistry at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, home to the #2 chemistry program in the U.S and the #27 university in the US overall.

Test Prep Credentials:
I consistently score in the 99th percentile on all standardized tests I have taken and have helped numerous students significantly boost their scores in tests such as the SAT, ACT, GRE, and more. I am also a member of the Mensa High IQ society with a IQ of 140 (99.6th percentile) giving me the capacity to understand complex patterns in standardized testing and assist you in seeing them too!

Teaching Credentials:
I have taught Chemistry 101 at UNC for 2 semesters, working individually with students through recitations as well as teaching groups of over 20 students at once. I focus on enabling talented students succeed at levels that they previously were unable to.

Location and Availability:
I meet online in Wyzant's virtual classroom, which has video, audio, chat, whiteboards, screen-sharing, and recording. Immediately request a lesson through instant book now!

Principle of Teaching:
My approach focuses on quickly identifying weak areas and tailoring strategies to enhance understanding and performance. With my background in teaching and my experience in high-level academics, I offer students personalized and efficient tutoring sessions to maximize their potential.

ACT Math Prep & Time Strategy

My daughter is very happy with what she is learning for the ACT prep with Greg. She mentioned that they have a great rapport and described the first session as “excellent.” She feels confident in his tutoring style and is looking forward to continuing their sessions together.

Thank you so much! It was a pleasure to start working with your daughter.

Tutoring tailored to student’s specific needs

Gregory has been a perfect fit for my son, whose last tutor seemed to not remember who he was or what his challenges were from session to session. Gregory is highly attentive to my son’s specific skills and challenges and evolves each lesson to target areas of the SAT that he hasn’t mastered yet. He also has insight into strategies to address specific problem types and ways to strengthen confidence in sections that previously seemed baffling. Overall Gregory is patient, focused, and attentive to the nuances of my son’s learning style and we really feel that it has made a difference in William’s readiness and confidence approaching his next SAT.
