About Nathaniel
I was fortunate enough to have wonderful teachers that inspired me to get where I am today. I’m hoping that I can be a small fraction of that for each student I take on. Over the years, I've worked with students at every level — from those struggling to break past a plateau to high scorers chasing a perfect result. You can count on my professionalism, consistency, and passion for high exam scores!

I'm Nathaniel, a PhD candidate at Yale in cognitive science, where I study how people learn and reason. I've spent over ten years tutoring the SAT, having delivered around 1,150 sessions across both sections.
My approach is based on learning science that is shockingly absent from mainstream test prep. I diagnose each student's specific weaknesses across 300+ sub-skills, using a proprietary learning algorithm to organize practice around the areas most likely to dramatically improve scores. My custom-built software also interweaves old material at scientifically optimal intervals to minimize forgetting. Booking with me comes with access to these tools, along with over 6,000 practice problems I wrote myself.
Last round of exams, my students showed a median score increase of +310 points, and past students have gone on to Yale, MIT, Brown, Penn, UCLA, Vanderbilt, and many other excellent universities.
Most of all, I keep it painless and clear. Students leave every session knowing exactly what to work on and why — test prep should not involve guesswork!
