I graduated from Virginia Tech with a B.S. in Applied Mathematics. I have been tutoring for about nine years and have tutored a wide variety of subjects, but my favorite to teach is Math of any sort.

In college, I was an accredited Chegg tutor who also tutored for the Virginia Tech Math department. One of my favorite things about tutoring is what I call the "... Read more

I love that "light bulb moment†when a student understands a new concept, feels more confident and recognizes that goals are in reach. That’s what has kept me tutoring for over 20 years, and it’s the experience I strive to create for my students! I was a National Merit Finalist in high school. Seven years later, I had my own “light bulb moment†after a Princeton Review prep course. After brushing off my rusty math and formal logic skills, my GRE scores rose to the 99th percentile. In...

I discovered my love for teaching while helping my friends in college with subjects we were taking together.

I received special math awards in high school and have done very well so far in my Mechanical Engineering major at Virginia Tech. I have also worked as a tutor at the Math Emporium there. I tutor in high school and college level physics and chemistry, as well... Read more
