I earned a 35 on the ACT (I did not take the SAT) and have excelled on all my AP exams, including scoring a 5 on AP Calculus AB and AP Biology. I have previous tutoring experience and currently am a mentor for Junior Model United Nations, where I work with over 80 middle school students each week to strengthen their research, writing, and public speaking skills. I'm passionate about helping students achieve their academic goals, and I would be happy to support them as a tutor.
