Dear students and parents,
I provide high-level preparation for SAT, ACT, GRE, and GMAT Mathematics, as well as AP Calculus (AB & BC), AP Precalculus, and AP Statistics, with a strong focus on quantitative reasoning, time management, accuracy, and exam strategy.
My approach is analytical, structured, and results-driven. I work with students who want to move beyond memorization and develop a clear, efficient way of thinking that performs under exam pressure.
With over 12 years of teaching experience and a strong background in university-level mathematics and statistics, I help students understand not only how to solve problems, but which method is optimal in a timed exam setting. We focus on efficiency, error reduction, and strategic decision-making.
In my sessions, students learn how to:
analyze quantitative problems quickly and accurately
solve efficiently with and without a calculator
apply mathematical shortcuts and logical frameworks
manage time effectively in high-stakes exams
approach both Quantitative and Integrated Reasoning sections with confidence
My experience teaching across international schools and universities (including UW–Madison) allows me to connect AP-level mathematics and standardized test content with deeper university-level understanding. This leads to stronger retention, higher scores, and long-term mathematical confidence.
I work with:
high-school students preparing for SAT, ACT, AP exams and university entrance tests
university students and graduate applicants (GRE, GMAT)
adult learners preparing for career-related numerical assessments (Numerical Reasoning)
Sessions are personalized, focused, and outcome-oriented, with targeted practice and clear feedback after each lesson.
Sincerely,
Leila

About Me
I am an IB-certified Mathematics and Statistics tutor with extensive international teaching experience across IB, IGCSE, A-Level, AP, SAT, GRE, GMAT, and university-level mathematics. I work with motivated students who value clarity, structure, and high academic standards.
My teaching style is calm, analytical, and strategic. I focus on helping students truly understand mathematics—building strong foundations, logical thinking, and exam confidence. I adapt quickly to different learning styles and academic systems, making complex concepts accessible without oversimplifying them.
I regularly support international students, students in competitive programs, and adult learners preparing for exams or university courses. Whether the goal is top exam performance, university success, or long-term mastery of mathematics and statistics, my sessions are focused, efficient, and results-driven.
