About
I am a current high school senior in the Centennial IB program and I will be attending Stanford University in the Fall. I tutor in subjects ranging from algebra to biology to history. I also edit, revise and brainstorm college essays/college applications. I was admitted to UCLA, USC, Stanford, UCSD and UCI and am well adept at helping students navigate the common application and the UC application.
I want students to reach their full potential and master the skills that will form the trajectory for success in their academics. Through deliberate studying and repetition, students will realize that they can tackle any class with ease. Studying properly will not only help them succeed; it will help with time management and reducing academic caused stress.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I first administer an evaluation test dependent on the subject to see which skill sets the student is proficient at. I will then develop a specialized tutoring program comprised of lecture, note-taking, quizzes and review. If the student needs help with the college application process, I will help market that student to their top schools by brainstorming with them and then editing their essays/college application. This is done according to the school they are applying to in order to maximize their chances of admission.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a current senior at Centennial High School and was named Valedictorian of my senior class for having the highest GPA out of 850 students. I have a 4.92 and a 99th percentile SAT score. I have taken numerous AP and IB courses and have passed all of the exams with top marks. I was admitted to 6 out of the 6 universities I applied to, including Stanford, UCLA, USC, UC Berkeley, UCI and UCSD
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
I charge based on the hour. However, I do charge higher rates for college application/college preparation tutoring. This includes SAT, ACT, and essay editing.
How did you get started teaching?
I began tutoring during my freshman year in high school as a member of the peer tutoring program at my school. I tutored kids from 3rd grade up to 9th grade in math, history, and science.
What types of students have you worked with?
I have worked with students with learning disabilities as well as students with speech impairments. I enjoy working with students who are willing to learn and put in the work to reach their goals.
