Hi! My name is Zand, and I am passionate about helping you learn. I tutor the ACT, SAT, and PSAT. I tutor Calculus, pre-Calculus, Algebra 1 & 2, Biology, Chemistry, English reading and writing, and Grammar. I also coach study skills and edit college application essays. I have strong college counseling experience, having guided my students to successful admissions into prestigious universities including Cornell, Vanderbilt, Carnegie Mellon, Dartmouth, Caltech, UC Berkeley, Babson, and Amherst College.
A little bit more about me - I am a rising senior at Carnegie Mellon University pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Statistics and Business Administration. I received a perfect score on the ACT. I received a perfect score on the SAT math. I received 5s on 11 Advanced Placement courses, ranging from AP U.S. History to AP Calculus BC. I have received As in some some of the most rigorous mathematics and statistics coursework at CMU, including Linear Algebra, Multivariate Analysis, Differential Equations, Statistical Graphics & Visualization, and Statistical Computing. In my free time, I enjoy being outdoors, spending time with my family, and listening to podcasts.
As a tutor, I love it when I see the face of my student who finally understands a concept that they have been struggling with. I think that each and every one of us has the potential to learn incredible and enriching things. Being able to help my students unlock that potential has truly been a remarkable and rewarding experience. Thank you for checking out my profile!
