Having completed both my Master of Science (4.0 GPA) and Bachelor of Science (3.88 GPA) in Chemical Engineering at NYU Tandon, along with graduating from Hunter College High School, I bring a strong background in analytical problem-solving and academic achievement to my tutoring. Scoring a 35 on the ACT and navigating rigorous university STEM curricula taught me that true mastery comes from understanding underlying concepts rather than memorizing formulas. I specialize in helping high school and college students build that same intuitive confidence across High School Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Mathematics (Algebra through Calculus), and ACT Math and Science prep.
Over the past several years, my teaching experience has spanned classroom instruction, small group leadership, and targeted one-on-one mentoring. As a university Teaching Assistant in NYU's Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, I mentored senior engineering students, authored original exam problems, and led weekly office hours for groups of up to 60 undergraduates. I have worked with a wide range of age groups, from high school students preparing for standardized tests to college seniors tackling advanced kinetics and lab design. My industry background as a working chemical engineer also allows me to connect abstract classroom concepts to practical, real-world applications.
My tutoring approach centers on active, student-led problem-solving tailored to individual learning styles. Rather than passively lecturing, I guide students through key examples, helping them spot common test traps, break down multi-step calculations, and develop efficient pacing strategies for high-stakes exams like the ACT. Whether a student is struggling to keep up with college organic chemistry or aiming for a top-percentile ACT score, I customize every session to align with their school syllabus and personal goals to ensure long-term academic success.
