Hello! My name is Michael, and I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Science and Engineering from Princeton University. I am deeply passionate about education and have dedicated much of my free time to supporting educational programs, especially those aimed at first-generation, low-income, and underrepresented communities.
I have been tutoring since high school and continued to tutor throughout my undergraduate years at Princeton. My experience spans a wide range of subjects and age groups. The subjects I tutor include mathematics, sciences, college essay writing, and test prep. One of my proudest achievements is coordinating an online tutoring program that brought supplementary education to many communities negatively impacted by COVID.
I have had extensive success in obtaining scholarships, such as the Lockheed Martin STEM Scholarship for $40,000, the Elks MVS Top 20 for $20,000, and more. Additionally, I have successfully assisted many of my peers with their college, graduate school, and medical school applications, helping them to present their best selves and achieve their academic and career goals.
Tutoring is incredibly fulfilling for me because I love helping others learn and succeed. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing a student have that “aha” moment when they finally understand a challenging concept. My goal is to make learning a positive and confidence-building experience for every student I work with.
I excel at breaking down complex topics into manageable parts and providing clear, step-by-step explanations. I also help students develop effective study habits and organizational skills, which are essential for long-term academic success.
