About
Hi, I’m Zand! I’m a Senior at Carnegie Mellon University, majoring in Statistics and Business Administration. My tutoring journey began in high school when I founded ATerrificTutor, a passion project aimed at helping students in my community conquer math with confidence. What started as a small initiative quickly grew, and my commitment to making complex concepts simple has only strengthened over the years.
With seven years of experience and a track record of success, I’ve become the top-rated tutor on tutors.com, recognized for helping students achieve remarkable academic improvements and test score breakthroughs.
I specialize in a wide range of subjects, including Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1 & 2, Pre-Calculus, Calculus, Chemistry, Statistics, Economics, and Finance. Additionally, I offer expert test preparation for the SAT, ACT, and SSAT, along with personalized career counseling and interview coaching to help students confidently navigate their academic and professional journeys.
What sets my tutoring apart is my proven, results-driven system. I focus on breaking down complex concepts into clear, manageable steps, ensuring students not only understand the material but also build the confidence to apply their knowledge independently. Beyond subject mastery, I emphasize ingraining strong study habits and discipline that students can apply to any class, setting them up for long-term academic success. Each session is tailored to the student’s unique learning style and goals, fostering both short-term success and long-term mastery.
Whether your child needs a solid foundation in math, a competitive edge in test-taking, or guidance in shaping their career path, I’m here to provide the tools and support they need to excel. Let’s work together to unlock their full potential and set them on a path to success.
