About Me

Hi! I grew up and completed my early education in China, where I developed a strong foundation in math through a highly rigorous academic system. I scored in the top 1% on China’s national college entrance exam (equivalent to a perfect SAT Math score) and later earned my master’s degree in financial engineering from NYU. I’m now a financial analyst at a U.S. clean energy company, where I use math every day to build budgets and forecasts. I enjoy making math less intimidating and more intuitive for students.

Experience

I’ve been tutoring students in math for over 3 years, from elementary level to high school algebra and geometry. I also help students prepare for standardized tests like the SAT and GRE—my own GRE Quant score was a perfect 170. I focus on building strong problem-solving skills and teaching in a way that fits each student’s pace. I’ve helped students improve their grades, build confidence, and even start to enjoy math!

Approach

My tutoring approach starts with helping students understand the key formulas and when to apply them. I guide them to recognize the type of problem they’re facing and identify the core concept being tested. Once they can classify the question, I teach them how to apply the appropriate formula or method step by step. This structured thinking process helps students build confidence and solve problems efficiently—not just memorize solutions.
