Experience

I am currently pursuing a bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering at Columbia University. I hope to work as a physician-engineer at a teaching or research hospital, so I am also taking classes from the pre-med degree track. I enjoy tutoring because it allows me to have a significant effect on students' educations. I have been tutoring for more than two years, beginning with volunteering in high school. I started a six week ACT prep program at my school to help many of my classmates, many of whom came from families that could not afford professional tutors or test prep courses. However, these students wanted to go to some of the best schools in the country and I wanted to help them reach their goals. During the two years I ran the program, I personally worked with over a hundred students. The program has continued since I graduated, run by many of the students I taught. It is also being expanded to include the entire school district.I have taught test prep classes for all of the major standardized tests, including the SAT and PSAT, ACT, and AP and IB exams. I have experience tutoring in many different subjects, but my specialties (outside of test prep) are physics, chemistry, and math. My goal is always to make test taking as easy as possible for students, so I concentrate on sharing methods or tricks that have worked for me and others I have taught. In my free time I enjoy reading, sleeping, playing piano, and learning new languages.
