About

I'm a very personable, capable, and engaged tutor.

As a student, I know which teaching methods work, and which tend to fall short.

As a tutor, I form a unique tutoring strategy for each individual student, tailored to his or her needs and strengths. Furthermore, I improve confidence with the material, along with comprehension.

I am also a good leader. I am the national director of the largest Jewish grassroots organization for Joe Biden, I have worked for both congressional campaigns and local government officials, and I am a leader of the Model UN club, quiz bowl team, and the school newspaper.

I enjoy getting to improve the confidence of a student in a certain subject area. I understand how frusturating it can be to work at a topic and continue to struggle. So, when a student finally masters what he or she is struggling with, I, along with the student, feel successful and accomplished.

    Along with the persistently uplifting attitude brought to each session, what I enjoyed most working with Asher was his unit and lesson organization. Asher also gave me good studying guidelines to follow on days between meetings. Overtime, I was able to take my SAT score from 1300 to 1560. Although I struggled more in some categories than others, Asher helped provide extra study materials and exhibited great patience by repeating instructions. Though I originally reached out to Asher for SAT help, he also helped me understand schoolwork for about 15 minutes after a few sessions. My time management and academic perseverance was definitely bettered thanks to the good student practices Asher showed me.

    Asher helped me improve the structure and quality of my writing! He is really good at helping you identify key parts of readings which overall, helped me so much today as I am writing more difficult essays.

    Frequently asked questions

    I spend the first session, or beginning of the first session, getting to know the student as an individual. This includes talking to both the student and parent to better understand how I can help, and how the student learns best. I also try and work out a scheduele and method of updating the parent on the progress of the student. After that, I begin tutoring the student, based off of where the most immediate help is needed.

    I consistently earn top grades in all my classes, I have past tutoring experience with math, english, history, and spanish, and I also have experience babysitting.

    I have worked with a diverse array of students, including elementary schoolers, middle schoolers, and high schoolers.

    Hire someone who you will not feel judged or shamed by. Essentially, hire someone who can effectively teach you while also being friendly and personable.
