I’m a graduate from Yale in Humanities, and I’m an experienced writer and editor. I especially love working with students on the writing process and college essays. I’m interested in getting to know my students, and creating a tutoring experience that aligns with their needs. Before college, I planned to study chemistry and math (though courses in literature changed my mind). I’m experienced at helping students with advanced high school science and math topics, as well. Looking forward to meeting you!
