For the past two years, I watched my younger brother and sister navigate the overwhelming maze of SATs, AP exams, and college applications. Having scored nearly perfectly on the SAT and earned admission to my dream school (University of Pennsylvania), I knew I could use what I'd learned to help students just like them. So, I became a test prep tutor. Over the past year, working with tutoring companies big and small, I mastered the strategies and techniques to achieve repeatable success on standardized tests like the SAT, ACT, and AP exams. Along the way, I've helped dozens of students boost their SAT scores by over 200 points and ace their AP exams. But beyond the numbers, I discovered something even more rewarding: I loved it. Seeing students overcome challenges, exceed their own expectations, and build confidence in themselves became the most fulfilling part of the work. I know firsthand how stressful transitioning to college is — not just for students but (maybe even more so) for parents too. I started Strive Scholars to provide personalized support that helps families ease that burden. Any student can succeed. And I'm here to equip them not just with the academic skills they need to excel, but also with the confidence to take on whatever comes next — in college and beyond. I'm currently pursuing a simultaneous BS / MS in Electrical Engineering and a BA in Economics from the University of Pennsylvania. I scored in the 99th percentile on the SAT, was a National Merit Scholarship winner, and received a 5 on 10 different AP tests.See more

Jeffrey S. says, "I cannot express enough how grateful I am for Tim's exceptional tutoring abilities. My student needed support in Advanced Placement US History, and Tim came to our rescue with his unparalleled expertise and dedication. From the outset, it was clear that Tim's approach was not just about imparting knowledge but understanding the unique needs of my student. His empathetic nature shone through as he took the time to connect with my student on a personal level, instilling confidence and motivation where there was doubt. What truly set Tim apart was his ability to develop a customized tutorial program tailored to my student's learning style and pace. He didn't just follow a one-size-fits-all approach but rather crafted a program that addressed specific areas where my student needed support while capitalizing on my students' strengths. His content knowledge was nothing short of impressive, and he effortlessly navigated through complex historical topics, making them accessible and engaging. The results speak volumes. Thanks to Tim's individualized program and unwavering support, my student not only excelled in Advanced Placement U.S. History but also achieved success on the exam beyond our expectations. Tim's effective tutoring methodology proved invaluable, paving the way for my student's academic achievement and future success. In conclusion, Tim is more than just a tutor; he is a mentor, a guide, and a true educational advocate. I cannot recommend him highly enough for anyone seeking top-notch tutoring services. Thank you, Tim, for everything you've done for our family."See more
