PrepNow Tutor - JJ S.
JJ graduated with honors from the Georgia Institute of Technology, where she received her BS in biomedical engineering. A goal-oriented educator focused on producing results, JJ is consistently finding ways to efficiently achieve and exceed her goals and encourages her students to do the same.
JJ began tutoring during college to pay the tuition bills. She enjoyed it so much that she never stopped! Now, she has been tutoring for over ten years, focusing on test prep and biology, physics, and math. She has worked with over 1,000 students during that time.
During her four years at the Georgia Institute of Technology, JJ tutored her peers in calculus. After college, she spent eight years tutoring ACT/SAT prep to high schoolers. During that time, she also tutored various math and science subjects at the high school and college level. Many of JJ's students have gone on to attend top-fifty ranked colleges.
When asked to describe her approach, JJ says, "I like to encourage students to ask questions and really understand subjects." In her experience, she has found both hands-on learning and repetition to be particularly effective. "The more students practice, the more likely they are to retain the concept. After all, practice makes perfect."
As a student herself, JJ participated in swimming and running. In her downtime now, she still loves to swim and also enjoys rock climbing, traveling, and trying new foods.
