College Admissions and Career Readiness Made Easy
Your Instructor

Hi, my name is Tai. I tutor students in New York City and online for middle school/high school/college math, as well as for the SHSAT, SAT, GRE, ACT, SSAT, ISEE, Calculus and all three Math Regents exams. I attended Duke University, where I graduated with honors with a degree in Mathematics in 2009. I also have a Masters in Math Education from Brooklyn College.
Five years ago I founded an education company helping middle schoolers gain admission into competitive high schools. During this time, I served as the Head of the Math division and as a test prep instructor responsible for curriculum design and delivery. In the process, I have accumulated over 10,000 hours of invaluable math teaching experience. It would be safe to say that I am an expert at this point. Show me a math problem that you're having trouble with -- I bet I have seen it before! Of course, there is much more to tutoring than "knowing your stuff." I have also learned highly effective ways to convey the knowledge and skills necessary for success on these standardized tests.
Tutoring is not only my career; it is a passion. I take great joy in helping my students. My work, as I see it, goes beyond preparing them for standardized tests. It involves helping them to develop skills that will serve them not only on their tests, but also in their current middle school or high school classes, their future college classes, and their eventual lives beyond academia.
This course is a great starting point to get your chid ready for the math section of the SHSAT. Enjoy!
