About
Hi, I’m Zand! I’m proud to be the #1-rated tutor on tutors.com, with the most 5-star reviews and hires on the platform. I’m a senior at Carnegie Mellon University pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, with a minor in Statistics and a concentration in Entrepreneurship. Before college, I attended the #1-ranked high school in the country, where I first discovered my passion for helping others succeed academically.
That passion led me to start ATerrificTutor, a tutoring company I founded in high school to help 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 proven track record, I’ve helped 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. I also offer expert test prep for the SAT, ACT, and SSAT, as well as personalized career counseling and interview coaching to help students confidently navigate their academic and professional journeys. Having landed a prestigious internship at a reputable financial institution, I bring firsthand insight into what it takes to stand out in competitive application processes and thrive in high-performing environments.
What sets my tutoring apart is my proven, results-driven system. I break down complex topics into clear, manageable steps, helping students not only understand the material but build lasting confidence. I also emphasize strong study habits and discipline that carry over into any class. Every session is personalized to fit each student’s learning style and goals—ensuring both immediate results and long-term success.
Whether you’re looking for support for your child or seeking to strengthen your own academic or professional foundation, I’m here to help you or your child thrive. Let’s work together to unlock that full potential.
