I graduated summa cum laude from American University with a Bachelor of Arts in International Studies; I also attended graduate school in Environmental Policy. I currently started my career as an analyst in ESG, while fully focused on tutoring in my free time! As a student myself, I have learned how to engage with course and test material and have realized the immense benefits of a good teacher and helpful explanations. But as a tutor, I utilize everything that I have learned as a student and also take this a step further to meet a student where they are.

I have tutored all ages of students in prealgebra, all levels of algebra, precalculus, geometry, trigonometry, and more. I have also worked with students across their curriculum from History to Economics to Spanish. I am multilingual as I speak Spanish fluently and also speak Russian. My passion for learning and true enjoyment of reading, writing, and math are my top tools in tutoring students to realize their own strengths and achieve greater success in these areas. I truly understand that every student has a different style of learning to succeed. With the ability to bring out students' stories and unique qualities, I have also helped numerous students get into their dream schools.

Students looking for assistance in their grade school, college, transfer, and graduate school applications and test prep should reach out to me! I am skilled in all levels and subjects of ACT, SSAT, and PSAT and multiple subjects of the SAT and GRE as well as application guidance and essay writing to tell your story. I am also easy to reach and will be available on your schedule and timeline. Please contact me if you are interested, and I appreciate any and all detail and resources that you have in regards to what you are looking for help in. I will do my best to assist you or your student towards your definition of success. Contact me now so that we can plan our first session together, and I look forward to working with you!

Smart, patient, nice, kind, talented, punctual, wonderful tutor.

Rebecca is helping our daughter prepare for the SSAT's. Rebecca made an almost instant connection with my daughter. Rebecca is genuinely nice, very smart, kind, prepared and patient tutor. I feel like she is on our team and wants our daughter to get into the private school of her choice as much as we do. Rebecca was able to identify our daughters strengths and weaknesses and focused her lessons to help our daughter score well on the SSAT. We highly recommend Rebecca!!!

Very Talented Writer!

I was stuck on writing my essay for a while, but Rebecca was able to translate my thoughts into a story. Having a similar upbringing, she was able to help me feel more confident about my writing. I would recommend her to all!

Sofia, 2 lessons with Rebecca

Knowledgeable, organized and extremely kind and patient

Rebecca has been superb with my 13 year old daughter. She came prepared with a lesson plan after our initial discussions. She is very knowledgeable, kind and very easy to get along with. I highly recommend Rebecca to anyone looking for help.

Thank you Tadin for your positive feedback, it has been great working with Dede!

Great tutor

Rebecca is great. She is so helpful in making sure my 7th grade son understands his Spanish homework. His grades have really improved since working with Rebecca. He says she explains things really well.

Haven, 9 lessons with Rebecca

Skilled, knowledgeable and focused!

Rebecca was so helpful in terms of her experience and ability to help me structure my essay. Her guidance was much appreciated on how to best answer the prompt and her skill is exceptional. She really knows what she is doing and is so easy to work with!

Wieke, 1 lesson with Rebecca

Exceptional tutor

My son needed help in editing his college application essays and resume. My son's forte is Math and hiring Rebecca to guide him 1. through grammar rules, 2.help him make his essays interesting and 3. walk him through his resume was the best decision I made during the college application process. His essays turned out wonderfully interesting; his resume was succinct; and he enjoyed working with her. I highly recommend Rebecca for her patience, knowledge and prompt response. Thanks!

Thomas, 23 lessons with Rebecca

Patient and Understanding

Rebecca has helped my son out quite a bit. I am so glad he is initiating sessions and do hope this translates into other topics as well. He needs constant reminders and it’s great to have Rebecca order to do online sessions when they can’t meet. Thanks, Rebecca.
