Hi! I'm Elham — a friendly, experienced tutor who loves helping students become confident writers, readers, and overall learners. I've been tutoring on and off for over 10 years, starting in high school where I worked in a nationally recognized writing center in Fairfax County. Since then, I’ve supported students of all grade levels across a wide range of subjects.
I graduated high school, undergrad, and my Interdisciplinary Master's program all with a 4.0 GPA — so I deeply understand effective study habits, strong organization systems, and the learning strategies that lead to success. More importantly, I’m committed to helping students build confidence, curiosity, and a genuine passion for learning.
I currently work as a Program Manager for a national education nonprofit dedicated to advancing equity and supporting marginalized students, which strengthens my ability to guide learners with patience, clarity, and encouragement.
