Experience
ACT Composite: 35 ACT Reading: 36 ACT Math: 33 ACT Science: 34 ACT English: 35 My favorite aspect of tutoring is the chance to help students fully understand the course material they are covering, especially when it comes to math and science. I have noticed that many students become intimidated by these classes, so they often struggle to comprehend and enjoy the topics they are taught in school. I started tutoring my sophomore year in high school with english and science classes. I have since expanded to teach all levels of high school math, as well as ACT and SAT prep classes. Course Highlights: Science: Ap Physics, Honors Physics, Honors Chemistry, Honors Biology English: AP English Literature, Honors English Spanish:AP Spanish, Honors Advanced Spanish Math: Honors Algebra 2, Honors Pre-Calculus, Calculus, PSU-Calculus 2&3 (College Calculus, semesters 2/3) Honors/Distinctions St. Mary's Academy: High Honors (all semesters), Student-Athlete Award (all years), Freshman Math Prize (one awarded) American International School of Cyprus (Attended 2nd semester of Freshman Year.)
