Experience
Hi! I'm an experienced tutor and mentor for high school students. I spent two summers teaching trial advocacy/litigation at an immersive summer program at Stanford University, where I enjoyed leading several groups of 16 high school students from around the world become a close-knit, successful team that learned and grew together. In addition, I have experience as a two-year Director on staff of the largest high school Model UN conference in the world, NHSMUN. At GW, I was also a Peer Mentor/TA for my college and led my student organization, GW Mock Trial, as captain and president. I'm happy to help with English/history related topics, public speaking/debate coaching, test prep (SAT/ACT/AP), college essays/applications, writing, study strategies, etc. I scored a 5 on the following AP exams: US History, Calculus AB, Environmental Science, US Government/Politics, Spanish Language, English Language, and Chinese Language/Culture. ACT: 35 / SAT: 2220
