She worked as a humanities preceptor at The Dalton School for seven years, co-founded the online reading platform TimesArrow.org and was the publishing manager at The Paris Review. Her students have matriculated to every one of the Ivies and most of the NESCACs and little Ivies. After over a decade of tutoring students in standardized test prep and application writing, she turned to academic consulting full time. She prides herself on meeting students exactly where they are, teaching them to unlock their unique learning abilities, and helping them self-actualize to their highest possible potential.

He holds a PhD. in History from Columbia University, a M.Phil from Cambridge University and a M.A. from the University of Edinburgh. Oliver’s students love his highly supportive but equally vigorous approach to teaching. He specializes in AP World History, AP European History, AP United States History and Latin American History.

  • Carlos A.

    Carlos was valedictorian of his high school class and graduated from MIT with degrees in Chemical Engineering and Theatre Arts. He also has a Master of Fine Arts in Directing from Carnegie Mellon. With over 15 years of experience working with high school and college students, Carlos has an empathy for the challenges they face in learning, and teaches from fundamentals to make sure they grasp the material and excel. He offers tutoring in academic subjects: Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Calculus, Differential Equations, Geometry, Precalculus, Trigonometry, Biology, Chemistry, Earth Science, Physics, as well for the following APs: Biology, Calculus AB & BC, and Chemistry.

  • Nathan K.

    Nathan was his high school’s salutatorian and received a 36 on the ACT and 1590 on the SAT. Before matriculating to Columbia, he spent time in the US Navy, learning about and then instructing students in nuclear reactor operations. He graduated from Columbia’s School of Engineering and Applied Science in 2024 with a degree in Mechanical Engineering. Nathan enjoys teaching standardized tests, along with academic math and science and finding real-world connections and applications to help students learn. Nathan’s students love his incredible clarity, deep well of knowledge and down-to-earth nature.

  • Johanna B.

    A born and bred New Yorker, Johanna has been teaching middle school and high school Latin and Greek at The Dalton School for over ten years. She received her BA from Swarthmore College in Ancient Greek and Latin, followed by an M.A. at the University of Maryland in Classics, and completed doctoral work at the City University of New York in Classics. Johanna began tutoring middle and high school students over fifteen years ago, and it was tutoring that made her desire to teach full-time. As someone who once hated Latin as a beginner student years ago, Johanna knows firsthand how hard classical languages can be; she also knows the importance of one’s teacher and tutor in making the subject more interesting and comprehensible.  While Johanna specializes in tutoring Latin and Ancient Greek, she also tutors for the ISEE/SSAT, English writing and reading comprehension, ACT and SAT English test preparation, and works as a college consultant, leading the students through their school choices, personalized essays, and application process. 

  • Branden S.

    A US Naval Officer, Brendan obtained an engineering degree from SUNY Maritime college with a 3.93 GPA. He taught nuclear reactor operations for 2.5 years in Charleston, SC and currently enjoys teaching math and physics to high school and college students in the local TriState area. The combination of his calm and patient demeanor, subtle sense of humor and impeccably high standards, makes Brendan incredibly effective in communicating complex concepts to younger students. His overall approach is to break the topics down to the smallest details, and slowly build up the understanding of the topics as a whole to be able to tackle more complex problems.
