Experience
Hi there! I have extensive experience tutoring and teaching primary and secondary school students, including working with disabled young people. I have experience working with English language learners and with international students who are taking the SAT and applying to United States colleges and universities. In addition, I also have experience teaching programming for practical use. This experience includes programming in C, Java, Python, as well as experience in theoretical computer science. I have 3 years of in-laboratory work experience and 16 years of classical violin, on and off. I can teach beginner violin and have experience working with the Suzuki method. My accomplishments include a 2150 cumulative SAT score (720 writing, 710 maths, 720 critical reading) and high scores on 7 Advanced Placement (equivalent to Advanced Highers) exams (5/5 Biology, 5/5 Psychology, 5/5 Calculus I and II, 5/5 English Literature, 5/5 English Language, 4/5 French, 4/5 United States History).

Hobbies
I love travelling! I recently spent a year studying and doing research at the University of Edinburgh, in Scotland. I hail from Westchester, New York and love living in new places - one of the reasons I moved to Montreal for university a few years ago. You might find me spending my weekends taking walks, reading, painting, blogging, and inevitably studying.
