Hello! My name is Emma, and I am a New York City native. I attended New York University’s College of Arts and Sciences and graduated from Stuyvesant High School, NYC’s top specialized high school.

I have over eight years of tutoring experience across a wide range of subjects, including Mathematics and English at the middle and high school levels, AP Psychology, and SHSAT/SAT/Regents test preparation. I have successfully guided over 30 students through the SHSAT, with many earning admission to prestigious schools such as Stuyvesant, Bronx Science, HSMSE, Brooklyn Tech, and Brooklyn Latin.

Beyond private tutoring, I have worked with several tutoring companies throughout New York City, where I’ve taught both group classes and one-on-one lessons. This experience has helped me develop flexible teaching strategies to meet the needs of different learning styles, whether in a classroom setting or individualized sessions.

I scored a 2250 on the SAT (99th percentile that year), giving me firsthand insight into effective test-prep strategies. Over the years, I’ve helped students raise their confidence, master challenging material, and achieve their academic goals.

I am new to the Wyzant platform and excited to expand my client base here. If you have questions or would like to set up an appointment, please feel free to contact me. I will gladly provide references from past and current students and their families.

I look forward to working with you!
