I tutored AP math and science during my junior and senior year in high school (physics and calculus mostly). I have helped students with the ACT Reading section which I got a score of 36 both times I took the test. I am proficient in all subjects of math ranging up to Multivariable Calculus, Linear Algebra and Differential Equations. I have taken college level physics up through Quantum Physics and am pursuing an Economics dual major (along with Physics) in quantitative analysis. I have completed AP Economics in high school and achieved a score in Macro and Micro to test out of Introductory Economics at RPI and have completed Intermediate Macro Theory with a grade of A.
