Hi there, I'm Anna, a college freshman studying engineering at A&M and a National Merit Finalist! I specialize in making complex STEM subjects and essay writing easy to understand, manageable, and approachable. I graduated with 12 AP classes under my belt, earning 4s and 5s, a weighted GPA of 4.73, and a 1560 SAT. Having recently navigated the rigors of AP courses and college applications, I know what it takes to succeed, overcome academic anxiety, and build effective study skills.

Hi there, I'm Anna, a college freshman studying engineering at A&M and a National Merit Finalist! I specialize in making complex STEM subjects and essay writing easy to understand, manageable, and approachable. I graduated with 12 AP classes under my belt, earning 4s and 5s, a weighted GPA of 4.73, and a 1560 SAT. Having recently navigated the rigors of AP courses and college applications, I know what it takes to succeed, overcome academic anxiety, and build effective study skills.
My tutoring background includes a summer of volunteer tutoring groups of 10 high school students through Schoolhouse for online SAT Math Prep, where I learned how to teach students to break down difficult topics into smaller problems. I learned that effective tutoring isn't just explaining a topic, but guiding students through the process of reaching the right answer. An outline of a tutoring session would include a fun introduction to the main idea, a thorough teaching of the material, and practice time. Of course this will vary and can be adjusted based on your individual needs - if you're having trouble I'll slow down, or I will add time to ask questions. I often utilize the Teach-Back method, where I will quickly check a student's understanding in order to catch any errors and correct misconceptions.
Whether your student is struggling with the logic of Calculus (AB & BC), intuitive nature of AP Physics Mechanics, or piecing together a compelling essay, I leave them feeling more confident than they started. Feel free to contact me with any additional questions or to schedule a session!
