With over ten years of teaching experience, Samantha specializes in both SAT/ACT test prep and academic tutoring, including the most advanced levels of both math and English language and literature. Samantha graduated Summa Cum Laude and Phi Beta Kappa from the University of Southern California with a BS in Economics and Mathematics and a BA in English. While at USC, she taught Calculus II to fellow undergraduate students and volunteered locally to teach kids K-12 through organizations such as Troy Camp, the Joint Educational Project, and Thrive Scholars. After living and working in Washington, DC for three years, Samantha received her Masters in Economics from the University of Oxford.
Samantha has taught across all age groups and in settings ranging from one-on-one tutoring to lecturing to over 100 students. Her favorite part of teaching is demystifying difficult subjects, going beyond a surface-level understanding so students can master what they learn.
Outside the classroom, Samantha enjoys exploring the world through books, travel, museum visits, and nature hikes.
