    Hi, I’m Michael! I am a Princeton student currently pursuing a major in physics with minors in applied math and CS. I graduated high school top of my class with some of the following achievements: - 4.00 uw gpa - 1580 SAT (in one try) - USAPhO Bronze Medal - Six-time AIME Qualifier - Department Award in Physics I also scored 5's on the following AP exams: Calculus BC, Physics 1, Physics 2, Physics C (Mech + E&M), AP Computer Science A, AP Statistics, AP Chemistry, AP English Language and Composition, APUSH, AP Chinese I started tutoring in my freshman year of high school and basically never stopped. Over the last five years, I have tutored students for over 300 hours, mainly one-on-one. In the past, I have taught topics ranging from pre-algebra to USA Physics Olympiad prep (quantum/calculus-based physics). I try to keep lessons interesting and lighthearted because the last thing students need is more stress, and I do my best to connect with students and get to know them. I offer tutoring and test prep in all subjects, whether they be for classes, standardized exams, or anything else. I also offer college counseling and application crafting services. I was accepted REA to Caltech and RD to Princeton. Through the processes of college apps and meeting the kinds of people I go to school with, I have developed a pretty clear understanding of what college admissions are looking for. In the 2024 application cycle, I helped my students get into top universities. If you have any questions about my qualifications or services, please don’t hesitate to reach out! I’m easy to reach and will always respond as quickly as I can. Looking forward to meeting you!

    Hi, I'm Kaitlyn! I am a Princeton student currently pursuing a major in English with Minors in Creative Writing and Entrepreneurship. - 4.00 GPA - 1560 SAT - Received 5s in AP exams: AP English Literature and Composition, AP English Language and Culture, AP US History An English major at Princeton, I offer one-on-one college advising and tutoring. I work closely with students through every stage of the admissions process— SAT/ACT/AP prep, building timelines, editing essays, and helping them find the confidence to share their experiences in a way that feels natural and personal. Outside of class, I’m the Director of The Alcott Youth Magazine, a platform for young writers to share their voices. Storytelling has always been a big part of my life, and I love helping students uncover the values and interests that connect the different parts of their application. I currently work as an Admissions Advisor, Essay Specialist, and SAT Reading and Writing Tutor with Tiger Trail College Consulting, a team of Princeton students committed to making the college process more thoughtful and personalized. Instead of just checking boxes, we focus on helping students reflect on what actually matters to them and use that to shape an application that’s both strategic and authentic. Our process starts by identifying a student’s core interests and the activities they care most about. From there, we help them shape a theme— a central idea or quality that ties together the different parts of their application. That could be a long-term commitment to a cause, a particular strength like leadership or creativity, or even a way of engaging with the world, like curiosity or empathy. At Tiger Trail, we don’t believe in forcing students to pick one narrow “passion” just to stand out. Instead, we help them recognize what’s already there: the patterns in their experiences, the values behind their choices, and the strengths that show up across different areas of their life. A strong theme makes an application feel focused and intentional. It allows students to move beyond a scattered list of achievements and instead present a clear, compelling story that reflects not just what they’ve done, but who they are and what matters to them. By identifying themes, I’ve directed students toward relevant grants, competitions, and summer programs, and I’ve helped them design capstone projects that they find deeply rewarding. Whether you're prepping for the SAT/ACT/APs, crafting a personal statement, or looking for general application advice, I’d love to help or offer someone from my team. Reach out to learn more!
