Fun Facts

I have always enjoyed the humanities and the sciences. I loved drawing human anatomy, a combination of art and biology. I also enjoy hard science fiction movies and stories, such as Predestination and Arrival. I love to travel. I have wrestled in the grasslands of Mongolia, traversed a glacier in Iceland, and climbed up to Prague Castle.

About Me

I am recent graduate of Cornell University with a major in physics and concentration in chemistry with a 3. 8 GPA. I was also valedictorian of Rhinebeck High School. I have performed published research at Columbia University. I took a variety of physical and life science classes so I have a strong background in physics, chemistry, biology, and math. I am interested in the intersection of all these disciplines and would like to pursue a graduate degree in biophysics.

Experience

I have tutored for multiple agencies and families in Greater Boston. I have extensive experience tutoring students for the SAT, ACT, physics, biology, algebra, geometry, precalculus, and calculus. I have tutored in these subjects at the both standard and AP levels. I have also helped students with writing, such as with essay composition and research papers.

Approach

My tutoring style is very patient and professional. I completely understand that certain concepts take time to grasp and I am happy to explain them through examples as many times as needed so that students feels confident and enjoy learning. Understanding class material, mastering home work, and completing extra, unassigned problems are all skills that I encourage for future success. Practice and understanding how to practice can make for less stressful and more successful tests.
