About Me: Hi! I'm Janice, and I'm a professional nerd. I've been a tutor since 2015, and I tutor both in person and online over video chat. Also in the process of creating online educational courses *finally* 📚 I teach teens how to score higher on the SAT and ACT college entrance exams on reading, writing, science, and math. I've had over 200 students and over 1,000 teaching hours! 💯 I tutor all levels of math from elementary school all the way up to 12th grade and some college level math 💻 I also help with writing engaging and unique college application essays ✏️ I love teaching and problem solving, so I started this channel to share my “nerd-iness“ with more people.
