Through feedback that is both technical (the X's and O's of writing) and power-affirming (asking writers to think deeply about their effect on the reader), I have helped dozens of students get into colleges.

I’m Sam! I am currently a senior majoring in energy engineering at UC Berkeley. I have a longstanding love for learning and enjoy helping others learn.

The most rewarding experience as a tutor is watching students learn to understand the material, that 'ah-ha' moment. Personally as a tutor, I find it most rewarding when I can fully engage my student in the subject matter by providing real world examples of how the material they are learning can be applied to everyday life. This will not only help enhance their understanding of the subject matter but will also make it more enjoyable for them to learn. Every student is different and each has ... Read more
