Private tutor in Woburn, MA

Education

Northwestern University (Chicago, IL) B.S. Industrial Engineering I'm a recent Northwestern University grad now working for GE in the Boston area as a software/firmware engineer developing electronics software for the oil & gas industry. I graduated from high school in Los Angeles and excelled in every class. I was the top chemistry student for 2 years and represented the school in national ACS Chemistry Olympiads. I was a top math student and represented the school in many math competitions across college campuses and in the AMCs. I also led our Scholastic Bowl team to a district championship during my senior year. I captained our boys' volleyball team for 2 years, was a member of the jazz/marching band, and graduated as an AP National Scholar. I've gone through the system and understand what it takes to get into a top school. I enjoy tutoring as well as mentoring students to adapt to different tests, subjects, and teaching styles to excel in all situations.
