About Andrew


Bio

I'm Andrew, a sophomore at Carnegie Mellon University experienced in physics and physical science, having qualified for the USA Physics Olympiad Semifinals 4 times, winning an Honorable Mention 3 times. I have also scored a 5 on AP Physics C: Mechanics, AP Physics C: Electromagnetism, AP Physics 1, and AP Physics 2. In addition, I have a lot of experience participating in choral music and frequently compose short music bites with my friends and for class.

I'm Andrew, a sophomore at Carnegie Mellon University experienced in physics and physical science, having qualified for the USA Physics Olympiad Semifinals 4 times, winning an Honorable Mention 3 times. I have also scored a 5 on AP Physics C: Mechanics, AP Physics C: Electromagnetism, AP Physics 1, and AP Physics 2. In addition, I have a lot of experience participating in choral music and frequently compose short music bites with my friends and for class.

I have instructed elementary schoolers, middle schoolers, and some high schoolers, from across the country in physics, astrophysics, and other STEM subjects through the organization that I co-founded, Silicon Valley STEM 4 Youth.

I have also tutored students in music at the Friends of Children with Special Needs organization and I teach in a style that is patient and with a flexible pace that still ensures that my tutee's goals are met.

In my senior year of high school, I was one of eleven tutors selected from my school to help guide a group of underclassmen to reach their personal academic goals and tutor them in subjects that they found challenging. It was an incredibly rewarding experience for me, and through it, I learned a lot of useful study skills and habits that could help out other potential tutees (and myself!).

I've been teaching students online for the past two years. I am always happy to help.

I am thrilled to work with anyone willing to put in their 100% during our lessons. Feel free to contact me if you'd like any tutoring in physics, music, or other sciences!

Computer Science

I am pursuing a Bachelor's in Computer Science from the Carnegie Mellon School of Computer Science, the highest-ranked CS school in the nation. I have previously been a software engineer intern at a technology company and plan to go into the field of CS/AI. I have extensive experience teaching students and would love to help people grasp concepts in computer science.

Voice (Music)

I performed at Carnegie Hall as a 1st place winner in the Jazz/Musical Theatre/Broadway category of the American Protégé International Vocal Competition in March 2022. I was invited twice again to perform at Carnegie Hall through American Protégé, and placed at various other vocal competitions (e.g. 1st prize in the Muse International Music Competition in the Musical Theatre category, 2nd place at the American Music Talent Competition, 3rd prize in the International Youth Music Competitions in the Broadway and Musical Theatre category, etc.). I also have experience teaching singing to students at the Friends of Children with Special Needs organization. I am and have always been incredibly passionate about singing!
