Bio

I'm a sophomore at the University of Pennsylvania studying computer science in the engineering school. My background is heavily quantitative — I've completed calculus and multivariable calculus, earned 5s on all of my AP math and computer science exams, and scored a 1560 on the SAT. I tutor the subjects I genuinely love and use every day: math through calculus, computer science, and coding in Python and Java.

I'm a sophomore at the University of Pennsylvania studying computer science in the engineering school. My background is heavily quantitative — I've completed calculus and multivariable calculus, earned 5s on all of my AP math and computer science exams, and scored a 1560 on the SAT. I tutor the subjects I genuinely love and use every day: math through calculus, computer science, and coding in Python and Java.

I've been teaching for several years across a wide range of ages. I previously worked at Code Ninjas, where I taught coding to elementary and middle school students, and I volunteered as a tutor throughout high school, helping my peers one-on-one with calculus and other subjects. I've also led a coding camp in a classroom setting, so I'm comfortable both working closely with a single student and keeping a whole room engaged.

My teaching philosophy is based on joy and curiousity: I want my students to truly understand material, not just memorize it. If an explanation doesn't click the first time, I'll mark it and revisit the topics with a twist on what they already know, to make sure they really got it. I also tailor my analogies to each student's interests, because material sticks better when it connects to something they already care about. That personal connection matters to me too; students learn best from someone they actually enjoy working with, and I aim to be that tutor.

Approved Subjects

Computer Science

Computer Science

I'm a sophomore majoring in Computer Science/Artificial Intelligence at the University of Pennsylvania's engineering school, and I earned 5s on my AP Computer Science exams. I've tutored students ranging from elementary schoolers to my own peers. I started an AP review program for AP Computer Science Principles at my high school, and I also ran an outreach program teaching coding to elementary school students. My focus is always on making sure students truly understand the material rather than just memorizing it.
Elementary Math

Elementary Math

I've worked extensively with young learners — I taught coding to elementary and middle school students at Code Ninjas and ran an outreach program introducing elementary students to coding. I'm a sophomore studying computer science at the University of Pennsylvania's engineering school, with 5s on my AP math exams and a 1560 SAT. I know math confidence is built early, so I focus on making concepts click through fun, relatable examples rather than rote memorization. I'm patient, upbeat, and good at meeting kids where they are.
French

French

I've learned and studied French for over six years, and tutor my peers by conversing with them in French. These days I write some of my class notes in French and read books/webtoons in French for fun. That is what I bring to tutoring: real French, not just textbook exercises. Whether you need help with homework, reading comprehension, or vocabulary, we'll work from actual, modern texts that cater to your personal interests and make the language click. I'm also building a website that applies ideas from leading cognitive science research to make learning more personalized and natural — but that's just extra spice on top.
Java

Java

I'm a sophomore majoring in computer science at the University of Pennsylvania's engineering school, where Java is a primary language in our introductory courses. I earned a 5 on AP Computer Science A, which is taught entirely in Java. I've tutored students ranging from elementary schoolers to my own peers, including running an AP review program at my high school. I focus on building real understanding — not just memorizing syntax — so my students can write and debug programs on their own.
Writing

Writing

I'm a UPenn sophomore and lifelong writer — I won 1st place and was published in my high school's literary magazine, and at Penn I've written fiction, op-eds, and white papers. I earned 5s on both AP Language and AP Literature. I've tutored writing since high school and edited many of my peers' essays and papers. My approach: I work with you to make sure your main point comes across with clarity and conciseness, and I push for original ideas — because writing should be fun, not painful.
