Hello! My name is Carolynne. I am a May 2020 graduate from the University of Pennsylvania (Magna Cum Laude), an Ivy League institution. I majored in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics (PPE) with minors in Consumer Psychology and Urban Studies.
I have extensive tutoring and teaching experience, after serving as Executive Board Chair of the West Philadelphia Tutoring Project at Penn, and tutoring via Varsity Tutors since 2017. I currently tutor on both Wyzant and My Private Professor. I also edit essays independently.
I love tutoring because I enjoy getting my students engaged in learning new concepts. Tutoring is about teaching the desire to learn and understand through encouragement and positive reinforcement, as well as teaching my students the concepts themselves.

I applied to high school from Hong Kong so I have exposure to the TOEFL, although I waived the requirement due to my status as a native English speaker.
I have had experience in college counseling for high schoolers, especially those from Asia, given that I come from a similar background and now attend an Ivy League university (the University of Pennsylvania).
Feel free to contact me via this platform to learn more about my background or set up an appointment! I try to make my lessons as engaging and helpful for students as possible. I look forward to meeting you!
