Bio

I am an experienced tutor with a lot of real-world experience. My previous tutoring experience has involved History, Government & Politics, Writing, College Application preparation and public speaking. Right now, I am currently advising high-performing students on their personal statements and extracurricular development for college admissions. I have coached students through successful admissions to Ivy League and Top 50 National and Liberal Arts Colleges.

I am an experienced tutor with a lot of real-world experience. My previous tutoring experience has involved History, Government & Politics, Writing, College Application preparation and public speaking. Right now, I am currently advising high-performing students on their personal statements and extracurricular development for college admissions. I have coached students through successful admissions to Ivy League and Top 50 National and Liberal Arts Colleges.

I have a lot of experience working with students of all ages in a variety of subjects. I've taught ESL to elementary and middle school-aged children in China and Thailand and was a sailing coach for elementary, middle and high school aged children in the US. I've volunteered my time as a tutor in French, Writing and History in high school and a for-pay writing tutor in college.

I truly love learning, so beyond just helping students realize improved grades, I also want to build their confidence, encourage self-study and make the subjects more enjoyable. Beyond my academic achievement in my specialty subjects, I have a range of real-world experiences I bring to bear in my teaching. For example, my work on a range of academic and non-academic topics has appeared work in multiple formats (e.g. academic journals, blogs, etc.), and I have a decade of experience doing corporate presentations at a top Management Consulting firm. I have traveled to over 70 countries in the world often visiting historical sites, so I can make the subject come to life! I also have years of working in government in Washington, DC (e.g. the White House, Capitol Hill) which animates my passion for government & politics.

I graduated summa cum laude with my BS in Foreign Service from Georgetown and magna cum laude with my MA in International Affairs from Johns Hopkins.

Having truly lived the subjects I teach, not only do I want the students to learn to love them, I want to make them approachable and relatable with practical application and experience.

Very helpful.

The tutoring style was very open, and he was very good at ensuring the tone and delivery of essays were correct. I found it very useful that he was willing to review previously edited text and continued to give suggestions without bias towards his own previous edits. Not many tutors do this, and I was very reassured as I could confidently say that my essays would sound better and better after every edit.

Prepared and effective tutor

Jason is professional and very knowledgeable. He was communicative, right on time, and interested in our goals for tutoring. My son found him easy to understand and very helpful. He is looking forward to more lessons. Thanks!
