Education
Graduate of Northwestern University with a BA in Economics (GPA 3.52). Self-taught developer in R, Python, Javascript, and front-end web development. As a high school student, I scored 1560/1600 on the SAT, 32/36 on the ACT, and earned a 5 on numerous AP tests. I'm currently prepping for the GMAT and grad school applications.
Experience
I spent my first two years after undergrad teaching 10th and 11th grade math. I've been tutoring part-time for over 5 years since on a part-time basis totaling 1500+ hours. I've taught SAT and ACT prep courses many times, both one-on-one and in a classroom setting. My one-on-one students see an average improvement of 130 points (out of 1600) on the SAT after a 20 hour unit. I enjoy working with students of all levels, but especially those that are struggling to make sense of a bunch of equations and formulas. I've often found that once students understand why they are doing something, the calculations come very naturally.
