Bio

Hello! My name is Peter and I look forward to working with you. I went to TJ and Princeton University ('11), graduating with a major in math-based economics and minors in Finance and African Studies. I currently work in data and analytics, but am excited to spend some of my free time helping you and your children.

Hello! My name is Peter and I look forward to working with you. I went to TJ and Princeton University ('11), graduating with a major in math-based economics and minors in Finance and African Studies. I currently work in data and analytics, but am excited to spend some of my free time helping you and your children.

I have the most experience tutoring for the SAT/ACT and helping craft and edit college admission essays, but I've also worked with students on a variety of topics in the past, including all levels of math through calculus. I played lacrosse at Princeton (D1), and also love to coach/tutor lacrosse.

I got an 800 on SAT math and 800 on SAT II in math. 5 on the AP exam for BC Calculus as a junior at TJ, math-based economics major at Princeton.

I got a 750 on SAT English. Won a creative writing award for original playwriting in high school through Arena Stage. Took 6-7 English classes while at Princeton, and write in my free time. I also had several of my college essays published in a "best of" book.

I was a high school All-American in lacrosse, and set + still hold high school records for most goals scored and points in a season, played for Princeton University, one of the top ranked teams in D1 each year. Attackman.

I played attack at Princeton University (one of the top teams in the nation annually), and was a high school All-American at TJHSST in Northern Virginia. I still hold all-time scoring and points records at TJ. I've assistant coached for three years (two at TJ, one at Oakton) since graduating from Princeton in 2011, and have worked 1:1 and in small groups with several individuals with regularity. I'm happy to focus on whatever would be best for you - from shooting, to dodging (behind or up-top), to general game flow.
