Gari's Tutoring

I want to get to know my students and their personal learning style. It is important for me to be able to go at the right pace and to meet the student's understanding. Before diving into a lesson, I would like to take the time to talk to the student. I want to make sure that they are not only absorbing the information I give them, but also enjoying the time we are spending on that information. Students need to work extra hard on topics that are difficult for them, and it is harder to do so when they are not motivated. 

I graduated from Georgetown Day High School in Washington, DC in 2020. I currently attend Vassar College in Poughkeepsie, NY. I took math all through high school, and I have continued in college. I got a 5 on the AP Calculus AB Exam. I had four years of AP level English in high school, and I have continued with a writing seminar in college. My major is undeclared, but I plan to minor in Spanish. In high school, I also took AP courses in biology, psychology and Spanish. I received 4s on the biology and psychology AP exams, and a 3 on the Spanish exam. 

Outside of class work, I have a passion for music. I have been playing classical piano since I was 5 years old. This has taught me discipline and the value of practicing regularly. 

I have worked as a camp counselor (after years of training), so I have experience working with children of all ages. I have also helped people out at school, so I am able to work with peers as well.

I usually charge $40 for an hour and $25-30 for 30-45 minute sessions depending, but I want to make myself accessible, so these rates are flexible.
