About
I was a graduate teaching assistant at Tufts for 4 years with great success. I also tutored high school kids in math and computer science for many years in different locations. Scored 800 on the math SAT.
I love learning, teaching math and science, and the rewarding feeling of success when your student GETS it.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I try to understand the basic knowledge of the student before designing an individualized training plan.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have worked with gifted students for over 10 years, helping multiple high school students reach national level competitions in math and computer science in Romania.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
A small part of this will depend on the distance to the student.
How did you get started teaching?
I worked with gifted computer science students in a once-a-week comptuer science program - where I was the only instructor -, helping students prepare for the Romanian national CS olympiad.
What types of students have you worked with?
I have taught children as young as 6 - basic coding, mostly fun, basic implementation of games, all the way to computer science graduate students at Tufts University.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
I am currently co-teaching Algorithms - an advanced, required course at Tufts with 150 students. I was shocked last semester when my end-of-the-semester review session had almost 60 students! It was a fantastic 2 hour semi-lecture, semi-recitation style event where I felt like I had the opportunity to teach brilliant students!
