I am a tutor that predominantly focuses on STEM and Business subjects from high school through graduate school as well as standardized tests. I really do not have a favorite subject here. I just enjoy teaching students who desire to learn and improve themselves. When I was an undergraduate student as well as a teaching assistant in graduate school teaching first semester students, I could take a person the night before the exam that had no clue of what was going on in class and help them achieve a B on the exam the next day. Standardized tests such as the SAT/ACT exam comprise various courses in high school and I cannot teach someone everything they need to know in one night or if a person is weeks behind in the understanding of the course material. Whether it is a standardized test or learning another subject; an assessment must be determined of where the student is currently in their understanding of the material. Next a game plan must be put together to get the student from where they are currently at to where they want to go. The fact of the matter is unless a student has always struggled in mathematics since kindergarten, they can achieve a perfect or near perfect score on the SAT/ACT mathematics section. The only traits that are required are a high level of expectations as well as the desire and effort to achieve those expectations. When it comes to solving problems, I will always ask the student on how they would solve a particular problem. Their answers can range that they definitely know how to solve it to they have absolutely no idea. I would then guide them along through each problem with the goal to have them understand a correct approach needed and to instill in the student a better understanding of the material as time goes along. As far as more information about myself, I am a person that enjoys learning and growing in all pursuits and my favorite hobby is working out and lifting weights at my local Planet Fitness. Additional Information: I am a STEM based tutor for Varsity Tutors in which I tutor everything from entry level to advanced subjects in Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, Statistics, Computer Science, all Engineering disciplines, and MBA courses. I am continuously adding both courses in an individual field as well as fields themselves to tutor. I tutor from 6th grade to graduate school as well as students with mental disabilities.

In all subjects, I take a creative, inquiry-based and learner-centered approach, designing opportunities for each unique individual to meet their learning goals.
I'm not tutoring or buried in my textbooks, you will either find me rock climbing at the Triangle Rock Club, playing Ultimate Frisbee, working on my car, or enjoying the great outdoors (beaches, mountains, forests--you name it, I love it). On rainy weekends I enjoy tinkering with computers and old electronics, playing Pokemon, or picking at my guitar.
I am a recent graduate from a masters program in biostatistics at Columbia University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in biological sciences, with a focus in neurobiology at Northwestern University. In August, I will be starting a doctoral program in biostatistics at NYU. I was a teaching assistant at Columbia University in my department and also have tutored graduate students and undergraduates privately as well. My primary areas of tutoring are math and statistics coursework in addition to math sections on standardized tests such as the GRE and GMAT. I am very passionate about helping students feel more confident and excited about math. In my spare time, I enjoy running, playing piano, and spending time with friends and family.
I am a graduate of Wesleyan University, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with High Honors. With eight years of experience working in education, I've tutored students in math, science, history, and English, as well as helped students prepare for standardized tests. I've guided adults towards passing the US Citizenship Exam and taught English in India, where I lived for six months. Whenever I work with a student I personalize the lessons to fit their particular learning style, since I know every student is unique and having the right fit can make all the difference in making learning fun and effective. My strengths are tutoring the social sciences and humanities, as well as making math and standardized tests approachable to students that normally don't like those subjects. In my spare time I like traveling, spending time in the outdoors (climbing & backpacking), meditation, and playing soccer. Next fall I will be beginning my PhD in Education at Harvard University.

Frequently Asked Questions
Students often find word problems and multi-step equations challenging because they require translating real-world scenarios into mathematical expressions. Applied math concepts—like using formulas in technology contexts, working with rates and ratios, and understanding exponential growth—can feel abstract without seeing how they connect to actual applications. Many students also struggle with graphing and interpreting graphs, especially when analyzing data or modeling technology trends. A tutor can break these topics into manageable pieces and show how each concept builds toward practical problem-solving skills you'll use in technology careers.
Mathematics for College Technology focuses on applied math skills that directly support technology, engineering, and IT careers—rather than abstract theoretical concepts. You'll work with practical scenarios like circuit calculations, data analysis, scaling and proportions in design, and algorithms that use mathematical logic. The curriculum emphasizes problem-solving and real-world applications over pure theory. This means understanding *why* a formula works matters more than memorizing it, and you'll practice translating between mathematical notation and technology problems you'll actually encounter.
An effective tutor understands both the mathematical concepts and how they apply in technology contexts—they can explain why you're learning something, not just how to do it. Look for someone who asks you to show your work and reasoning rather than just giving you answers, helping you develop problem-solving strategies you can use independently. They should be able to adapt their explanations to your learning style, whether you're visual, hands-on, or need step-by-step breakdowns. Experience explaining concepts to different learners and patience with math anxiety are also valuable qualities.
Understanding comes from seeing patterns and connections between concepts rather than treating each formula as isolated. A tutor can help you explore questions like: "Where does this formula come from?" and "What does this graph actually represent?" Working through multiple problems with slightly different setups helps you recognize which approach fits which situation. Practice testing—attempting problems before reviewing solutions—and spacing out your study over time strengthens deeper understanding. When you can explain a concept in your own words or apply it to a new problem, that's when you've moved from memorizing to truly understanding.
Many students notice improvement in confidence and problem-solving approach within 2-3 weeks of consistent tutoring, especially if they're addressing specific weak spots like word problems or graphing. Deeper conceptual understanding usually takes 6-8 weeks of regular practice and instruction. Your timeline depends on how much material you're covering, how frequently you meet with a tutor, and how much you practice between sessions. The key is consistent, focused practice with someone who can help you identify gaps and adjust explanations until concepts click.
Yes. Math anxiety often stems from past negative experiences or feeling lost when concepts weren't explained clearly. Working 1-on-1 with a tutor in a low-pressure environment helps you rebuild confidence by breaking material into smaller steps, moving at your own pace, and getting immediate clarification when something doesn't make sense. Seeing patterns and connections—rather than viewing math as random rules to memorize—also reduces anxiety. Many students find that once they understand the *why* behind the concepts, math feels less intimidating and more logical.
When you show your work, a tutor can identify exactly where your thinking breaks down—whether it's in setting up the problem, choosing the right strategy, or executing the calculation. This pinpoints what you need to practice, rather than just knowing your answer is wrong. Showing work also forces you to think through your reasoning step-by-step, which builds stronger problem-solving skills. Over time, this habit helps you catch your own errors and adjust your approach independently, making you a more confident problem-solver in technology applications.
