My name is Bridget and I am a Junior at Georgia Institute of Technology majoring in Chemical Engineering. I have taken advanced courses in calculus, chemistry, computer science and engineering and earned top grades. I graduated in the top 5 in my class from Elwood John Glenn High School.
I have tutored high school students in math, chemistry, biology, physics, earth science, US and World history and SAT Prep. I also have much experience with Regents and SAT II prep for many of these subjects. I have also tutored younger elementary age students in math and reading. In addition to a learning environment, I have experience working with kids in a variety of environments. I worked as a tennis instructor at West Hills Day Camp in summer 2014. I also worked particurally with kids in the Gersh Academy, a special program for children with special needs, that was a part of West Hills Camp; I have experience being patient and observant to children's individual needs. I worked as a group leader at The Town of Huntington's Project Play Summer Program for underprivileged youth summers 2015 and 2016. I really love helping students learn more, achieve their potential, and gain confidence in themselves. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
