I have taken AP and/or college courses in the following: English, History, Music Theory, Psychology, Math, Physics, Biology, and French Language. In addition, I received high scores on the LSAT, SAT and ACT and am well equipped to prepare students for these exams in terms of content and strategy. I am also happy to help with writing assignments or college admissions essays.

I believe that students can conquer any subject with patience and flexibility in teaching style. I am passionate about working with students to find the learning method that suits them best!
