Hello! My name is Mary Ma and I am currently an undergraduate at Princeton University studying economics. I love tutoring because I often see myself in my students. I want to be the best teacher I can be and help all of my students learn more. My strongest subjects are writing, reading comprehension and math. I’m passionate about fashion and art; I love anything that involves creating something with my hands. I also love writing. I am currently a writer on the Prospect, which is the arts and culture section of The Daily Princetonian. In high school, I was Editor in Chief of our school newspaper and arts editor. I have lots of experience editing other’s writing. I’m so excited to teach with Princeton Tutoring!
