I'm new to Wyzant, but I have tutored students one-on-one and in small group settings for the past 4 years. I specialize in SAT/ACT prep, Spanish, Biology, and Chemistry tutoring, as well as college application consultations.

I strive to make tutoring sessions enjoyable, engaging, and comprehensible. I am patient, very receptive to questions, and ensure that my students understand the content before moving on in the lesson. I utilize lesson plans, integrate practice problems into my lessons, and tailor my lessons according to each student's learning style and preferences. For college application assistance, I help with creating college lists, essay writing/editing, resume building, and more.
Whether you're striving for a top SAT/ACT score, seeking to improve your Spanish speaking/comprehension skills, studying for a Biology exam, or applying to college, I am here to help you. Let's work together to achieve your goals! I am easy to reach and always respond promptly. Contact me with any questions or to schedule a lesson!

Amazing tutor - highly recommend!

Leah really relaxed my nerves associated with the SAT, especially the reading section. She simplified the information so that the questions were to the point.I have a new way of looking at this test, I don't feel as overwhelmed. In just one session, I have some test taking strategies that I never knew before and will build upon in future sessions.

5/5 Stars!

Leah was so helpful, patient, and truly passionate in helping me with my geometry questions. She was always patient until when I was ready to move on to the next question and ensured that I understood each topic before moving on. No question was too small, she answered it great for me to understand. She helped my critical thinking skills a lot. She is definitely a 5/5 stars tutor. Additionally, she has a great work ethic and shows kindness. She reviewed my work before we had our session so she was prepared, and she was great to work with. If you are looking for a great tutor, you found one!

An Outstanding and Patient Tutor - I Highly Recommend!

Amazing lesson! Leah provided clear explanations and was very patient when I did not understand concepts. She is very friendly and made me feel comfortable asking questions. Leah genuinely cared about my progress and provided me with many practice questions to do in preparation for my Spanish final exam. She even checked in to see how my studying is going and if I need any help. Leah is thorough, organized, highly prepared, and has great communication. I highly recommend Leah - thank you for everything!
