"Currently a lecturer in the English Department at Brooklyn College, I graduated Magna Cum Laude from Columbia University with a 3.88 GPA, and a BA in English and American Studies. I have taught and tutored since the summer of 2016, when I moved to Hong Kong to take up a position as an IB Literature, SAT, and ACT tutor. Since then, I have taught ESL in Spain and New York, and tutored students for the ACT, SAT, PSAT, SSAT, ISEE, SHSAT, and GRE, as well as the AP exams in US History and Literature, and the SAT Subject Tests in those areas. I have been a lecturer at Brooklyn College since January of 2018, where I have taught Intro to Composition, Intro to Literature and Research, Intro to Creative Writing, and Advanced Exposition.
I myself was not always a committed or enthusiastic student. It took me a long time to discover how to make school work for me. I have since dedicated my career to helping students find their love of learning, and achieve their full potential. I pride myself on my ability to adapt my approaches to the specific goals and learning styles of my students, whether they be in elementary school, or college.
As a high school student, I received a 760 on my math SAT and an 800 on my ELA. I took honors and AP math courses throughout my high school career, and received 5's on the AP Euro, AP American, AP Bio, AP English, AP Latin, AP Comp Sci, AP Government and Politics, and AP Macroeconomics exams. I also received 2 gold medals for my performance on the National Latin Exam during my high school career.
I am always on-call for my students. For me, true academic support requires a strong relationship with a student, one built on trust, honesty, and a willingness to adapt. I'm always happy to talk with students and parents, regardless of whether or not they are my clients. Please reach out, and hopefully I can be of some assistance." less...
