Bio

My tutoring journey began in high school, where I helped lower-level math students (elementary and middle school students) to build strong foundational skills. In addition, I tutored high-level high school and college students one-on-one, focusing on advanced topics and personalized strategies to help them excel. My experience also includes SAT and ACT preparation, where I supported students striving to maximize their test scores.

My tutoring journey began in high school, where I helped lower-level math students (elementary and middle school students) to build strong foundational skills. In addition, I tutored high-level high school and college students one-on-one, focusing on advanced topics and personalized strategies to help them excel. My experience also includes SAT and ACT preparation, where I supported students striving to maximize their test scores.

After high school, I attended and graduated from Carnegie Mellon University, majoring in business analytics and machine learning. During college, I further strengthened my teaching expertise by serving as a teaching assistant for two courses over 2–3 years, consistently tutoring and guiding students through challenging material. Now, as I return to tutoring, I offer a comprehensive background in mathematics, proven success with 1:1 instruction across all levels, and a genuine passion for helping learners reach their academic goals.

My approach combines diagnostic assessment, step-by-step problem-solving, and real-world examples to ensure student comprehension. I tailor my methods to each student’s learning style, focusing on building both skill and confidence so they can get to the goal of getting through the material on their own successfully. Across my high school and college years, I have accumulated over 7 years of experience tutoring students ages 8 through adult learners, in-person and online, and have a proven record of helping students achieve their academic goals.

Approved Subjects

Elementary Math

Elementary Math

I’ve worked at a math tutoring center for two years, where I supported elementary students one-on-one and in small groups. I helped them build strong foundations in core skills like number sense, arithmetic, fractions, and word problems by breaking concepts into clear steps, giving targeted practice, and building confidence over time.
SAT Math

SAT Math

I have extensive experience preparing students for the SAT Math section, equipping them with effective problem-solving strategies, time management techniques, and a deep understanding of the test’s content and structure. My tutoring approach emphasizes mastering both fundamental concepts and advanced topics, allowing students to approach SAT Math questions with confidence and achieve significant score improvements.
Tableau

Tableau

I have substantial experience using Tableau, both through my coursework for a bachelor’s degree in business analytics, where data visualization and dashboard creation were integral to our projects, and in a professional setting where I regularly analyzed and presented data with Tableau. This background has equipped me to efficiently translate complex datasets into clear, actionable insights for decision makers.
