About

My name is Derek, and I'm a high school sophomore from Pennsylvania! I am a prospective pre-med student with a 4.5 GPA and experience in rigorous Honors and AP courses. I genuinely enjoy helping my peers reach their ultimate success in their academic endeavors.

My mission on Schoolhouse is to build personal relationships with students who have a passion for learning, to educate all students using engaging learning tools, and to create a learning environment that students from diverse backgrounds can be comfortable in.

I specialize in SAT test preparation for R&W and Math. I know how stressful the SAT can be—but with the right strategies, practice, and support, it’s totally possible for students to reach their goals goals. Whether they're aiming for a perfect score or just trying to boost their confidence, I’ll help students break down each section of the SAT into easy-to-understand steps with test-taking tips, time-management strategies, and the overall mindset for SAT mastery. I work with all students from non-native English speakers looking to understand simple grammar rules to extremely motivated students looking for a 1500+. Please reach out if you are interested in one-on-one sessions or feel free to join one of my sessions or SAT Bootcamps!

Thanks a lot for this session, this 4 weeks might have been the most impactful weeks of the year so far! and i am really grateful for the kind of tutor schoolhouse has blessed us with and very hopeful that we continue to keep in touch with each other and hope that we all cross paths again someday. Thanks a lot Derek (if you are reading this), i am feeling a little bit emotional right now. Lots of care, from Goodluck.
