About Rachel

Hi, I'm Rachel! I graduated from Princeton with a BA in Molecular Biology, have a master's degree in global health from Karolinska in Sweden. While pursuing a PhD in sociology, I discovered that my most rewarding work came from working with students. As a teaching assistant, I enjoyed working with students one-on-one. When I noticed a student was struggling with essay writing, I worked with them to develop a logic and structure for their papers, or talked through how to improve their syntax and grammar. I also have 5 years of experience tutoring middle- and high-school students in math up to Pre-Calculus. I tailor my tutoring methods to each student -- I take note of whether we should spend time developing confidence and organizational skills, and I learn about their interests so that I understand how to help them connect to the material.
