Through 15+ years of experience as a private tutor and a TA, I have honed my skills in helping students excel in their academic pursuits. As a Stanford graduate and former private tutor at Advantage Testing, I have guided numerous high-income students from competitive schools to achieve their dreams of entering Ivy League institutions and top-tier medical and law schools. My experience extends beyond traditional tutoring, having developed innovative educational tools and AI systems as a founder and Chief Science Officer. I am passionate about empowering students to reach their full potential on the ACT and beyond. Let's work together to craft a personalized strategy for your success!
