I'm a graduate of Brown and Harvard University with a passion for helping students uncover their potential. My choice to tutor is rooted in the firm belief that everyone, with the right guidance and practice, can achieve their learning goals. My time at Brown and Harvard has taught me that success comes from detailed personal attention and employing fine-tuned goals and methods. As a tutor, I am an instructor, a cheerleader and a steadfast guide that help students navigate the sometimes difficult but exhilarating path of learning!

SAT/ACT PREP - A standardized test is standardized, meaning its form and content are predictable. Using my years of experience and expertise, I help students navigate the terrain of each test and section. Through a combination of strategy, drills, and timed practice, I help students improve their performance and thereby their chances for a better education.

College/Graduate App - The personal statement is an essential part of any successful application, but many students struggle with how to translate their thoughts and experiences into effective writing. As an IVY-graduate and Writing Fellow, I know what it takes to make an impression on the page. From brainstorming to editing, I help students develop their own voice and craft personal statements that reflect their experiences and further their goals.

Math - Math is logic, and human beings naturally posses a capacity for logic. Unfortunately, teachers often confuse the matter for students by not having enough time in the classroom, or using inaccessible terms that make the logic hard to follow. As a math tutor, I help disentangle the confusion by breaking down difficult material into digestible parts and building new pathways for understanding.

Writing - I love helping students find their voice. Students often have great ideas but don't know how to organize their thoughts and and communicate them in an effective way. Having worked as a Writing Fellow at Brown, I've been trained in facilitating a writing process across the acad

Approved Subjects

Algebra 1

Algebra 1

I've helped many students who are struggling in Algebra by offering detailed personal attention that is so lacking in many of today's classrooms. By fostering a learning pace that is tailored to the student's needs, and breaking down difficult material into digestible parts, I enable students to grasp hard concepts and master their course.
College Counseling

College Counseling

I worked as a college counselor at Brown (Meiklejohn Advisor) and have also advised both undergraduate and graduate applicants on their application package.
English

English

I worked as a Writing Fellow at Brown University, and was trained in facilitating a writing process for students across the academic curriculum. I help students develop a workflow that can translate their ideas into effective writing.
ESL/ESOL

ESL/ESOL

ESL - As a trilingual person (English, Chinese and Swedish), and having studied on three continents, I have an in-depth understanding of the language journey that second-language learners goes through. Unlike monolingual instructors who often take phrasing and words for granted, I am acutely aware of individual speech-patterns and am able to adapt my instruction accordingly. Having trained extensively in vocal production and public speaking, I have also successfully helped many students reduce their English accent and become more comfortable in their non-native environment.
Prealgebra

Prealgebra

In Prealgebra, I focus on helping students build a strong foundation of key concepts. In a classroom setting, teachers often do not have enough time or confuse the matter with difficult terminology. As a tutor, I offer detailed attention to the students' needs and fill in gaps of knowledge, thereby enabling them to form a thorough understand of the building blocks of algebra.
Public Speaking

Public Speaking

I hold an MFA in Acting and have received extensive training in Voice and Speech. I help with speech writing - brainstorming, organizing - and speech delivery.
SAT Math

SAT Math

The beauty of a standardized test is that it is completely predictable! As an SAT math tutor I help students methodologically target each section and fill in knowledge gaps. Through a combination of strategy, drills, and timed practice, I've helped many students become comfortable with SAT math, and feel ready for test day!
Theater

Theater

I hold an MFA in Acting from the ART/MXAT Institute for Advanced Theatre Training at Harvard University, and a BA in Performance Studies from Brown University. I have been performing and teaching theatre for over 10 years.
Writing

Writing

I've worked as a Writing Fellow at Brown University, helping students across all disciplines focus their writing. I also specialize in tutoring application writing for college and graduate school applications. I guide students through the entire writing process, from generating ideas to producing drafts to the final editing stages.

Amazing SAT tutor!!!!

I would highly recommend Jing to anyone who is looking for a tutor in Reading, Writing or Math. Jing worked with our daughter to help her prepare for her second SAT test. Jing is very personable, extremely knowledgeable, patient, and well versed in the SAT format and test taking tips. She gave our daughter SAT test taking tips that increased her confidence and skills that resulted in a 300 point increase on her second SAT test (this was an increase over her first test which was also well above average). Jing helped our daughter with all three content areas, in a positive, low pressure relaxed tutoring session. Thank you Jing !!!!!!!

My son says Jing is excellent!

I don't have direct experience, but my son (being tutored to the SAT by Jing) says that she is altogether wonderful, helpful, and a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend!

Gregory, 4 lessons with Jing

excellent tutor

Jing was an excellent tutor for my son. He had taken the test two previous times and had lost confidence in doing well for his final test. She taught him good test-taking techniques, and great strategies for tackling the Math section, which he was most concerned with. I recommend Jing very highly. Thank you!

Good Tutor

First, she is good at college consulting, the girl who is targeting the ivy league colleges like her advice for the college essay. Also, her SAT English tutoring is very good. We'll definitely work long-term with her
