I’m a private tutor based in New York City, with more than fourteen years of experience helping students perform at the highest levels on standardized exams and in the classroom.

​

I graduated from Hunter College High School and then attended Northwestern University, where I graduated Magna Cum Laude and  received multiple scholarships for academic excellence. I then began my teaching career as a university lecturer before transitioning full-time into the high-pressure world of private tutoring in Manhattan.

​

Over the course of my career, I have worked with hundreds of students from public, private, and international schools and logged more than 15,000 hours of one-on-one instruction. My students have earned hundreds of top-percentile scores, and in the past school year alone more than 30 of my students achieved a 34+ on the ACT or a 1500+ on the SAT.

​

Outside of tutoring, I have co-authored and edited textbooks and practice tests, including several by Bespoke Education, where I spent more than a decade as a tutor, mentor, and curriculum developer. I also host the Tutor Confidential Podcast and serve as the chief editor of the Test Insider Report Blog for Collegiants Educational Media.

​

I also believe that a good tutor needs to practice what he teaches. In recent years, I have earned perfect scores of 1600 on the Digital SAT and 340 on the GRE, along with a 790 (99th percentile) on the GMAT. ​
