About Me

I received a BA with Distinction in Political Science, with a minor in History, from Stanford University in June of 2011. I am currently working as a law clerk at a criminal defense firm in Palo Alto and plan on entering law school in a couple of years. I love tutoring. When I was in high school I became involved in a program where members of the National Honor Society tutored other children at the school. I enjoyed participating in the program and continued working with kids after I graduated from high school as I volunteered as a high school football coach every summer I was in college. I love tutoring for many reasons, but primarily because I enjoy the opportunity to pass on knowledge of the subjects I am passionate about as well as the opportunity to help children. I was extremely fortunate to have fantastic teachers and coaches in high school who had a remarkable impact on my life and instilled in me a love for learning. It is my hope that, through tutoring, I can have a similarly positive impact.

It is my pleasure to be the first person to do a review of Jimmy. He is the most amazing tutor! A master of his subject, Jimmy exhibits dedication, patience and professionalism toward his tutoring family. My son 's grades are improving and he is more motivated to work on AP US History because with Jimmy 's help, he is becoming successful in this course. My son looks forward to sessions with Jimmy!
