Hi! My name is Winnie Zhang, and I’m a Computer Science major at Williams College. I grew up in New York City and graduated from the Bronx High School of Science. Previously, I’ve worked with students from elementary through high school in subjects including math, science, English, and SAT prep, and I'm comfortable adjusting my approach to meet each student’s unique learning style. At Williams, I also served as a Teaching Assistant in the Statistics Department, where I supported students through problem-solving, exam preparation, and building strong foundational skills. These experiences, along with my coursework in computer science, have taught me how to tackle challenging concepts clearly and logically, often by breaking them into smaller, approachable steps. I strive to create a supportive, encouraging learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and growing at their own pace. I especially love helping students break down complex ideas and watching their confidence grow in areas they once found intimidating.

Hey! My name is Nathalie and I'm currently attending Williams as a freshman where I’m planning on majoring in Political Science and Mathematics. I’m from New York City and I went to Stuyvesant High School. During my time there I took various AP courses and did extracurriculars both and outside of school. While I attended Stuyvesant, I was forcefully made to skip algebra 1. My middle school also didn’t prepare me adequately enough for the rigor of my school. Due to those circumstances, I struggled in math at first. Thankfully my math teacher encouraged me to seek help, and I ended high school with a 97 in AP Calc AB. I definitely understand the struggle of asking for help. As a kid I even had a tutor to help me learn how to read, because I was very behind. Nowadays I love to read! My favorite author is Donna Tartt. I also enjoy writing and I’m currently taking a Comparative literature course. During high school I was a part of the writing center as well. I often take a look at both my friends and family’s essays for various purposes, such as just regular English essays and college ones. Regarding college, I was a part of a program called APEX youth where my peers and I had mentors who guided us through the college process. Some other activities I did included playing first chair flute, where I led my younger peers through music such as the Carmen Suite. I also worked at the New York Botanical Garden as an Advanced explainer and camp counselor in the Everett’s Children Adventure Garden. Here I did research on phenology and taught children of all ages about the outdoors. One of my favorite experiences was studying abroad in Rennes, France; where I stayed with a host family and took a French class. I did French all four years of high school up to the level of AP French and would love to pass it on. Currently at Williams I am a part of Mock Trial, Law Journal, and I work as a barista!
Josephine

Test results:
SAT: 1500 (English 760, Math 740)

Hi! I’m Josephine, a History and Political Science major at Williams College ('29). I graduated from Stuyvesant High School in NYC, where I took AP US History (5), AP World History (5), AP English Literature (5), AP English Language (5), and AP French Language (4). I also took AP Calc AB, AP US Gov, and AP Comp Gov but did not take the AP exams as Williams does not offer college credit. However, I earned perfect scores in both government courses and am studying Calc II at Williams. Outside of classes, I compete for Williams Moot Court and will be working as a research assistant for a history professor. As a tutor, I bring strong academics paired with extensive experience. I’ve worked with students of all ages, from Kindergarten and elementary school to high school. Through my high school’s honor society, I tutored history, Western Political Theory, algebra, and French. I also served as an editor for the Writing Center with a helpfulness rating of 9.5/10 and 9.8/10 overall rating for providing thoughtful, in-depth feedback on student writing. Additionally, I've tutored family friends and my younger sister in SAT English/grammar (760 SAT English). Currently, I mentor for a college-access organization, where I’ve helped dozens of students strengthen their personal essays, supplementals, and activities lists. My experience teaching in my church’s Sunday School has further enhanced my ability to work creatively with younger students. Altogether, these experiences have shaped me into a patient, adaptable tutor dedicated to meeting each student where they are and helping them build confidence and mastery in their academic journey.
Daniel
Williams College, Class of 2027, majoring in Computer Science and Music
Tutoring subjects:
Math, Computer Science, Spanish, Piano (classical & jazz), Music Theory
Hi! I’m Daniel, a junior at Williams College double-majoring in Computer Science and Music. I love exploring how logic and creativity intersect—whether that’s in a coding project, a piece of music, or a tutoring session. Over the past few years, I’ve worked with students of all ages in both academic and artistic settings. I’ve tutored elementary students in Williamstown, taught web design (HTML and CSS) at the Milne Public Library, and led music theory lessons and directed youth theater productions of The Lion King Jr. and Alice in Wonderland Jr. through the Youth Development Organization in Lawrence, Massachusetts. I also have experience supporting early learners at the Williams College Children’s Center, helping students develop confidence and curiosity in the classroom. Academically, I love helping students with math, computer science, and Spanish, building strong foundations in elementary school in fun and engaging ways and progressing to more advanced subjects like Spanish grammar and coding in Python later on. In music, I teach classical and jazz piano, along with music theory with the goal of making students better composers, interpreters, and performers of music, to teach them why music is the way it is and how to make music themselves. I can tutor 1 student or small groups of 2 or 3 students, which is a great, fun way for a group of friends or siblings to learn together, and my coding and Spanish tutoring for example are great for kids as young as elementary school--we start with intuitive lessons designed for that age. As a tutor, my goal is to make learning engaging and approachable—building understanding step by step and celebrating every “aha” moment along the way.
Raquel
Boston University, Master of Education in Curriculum and Teaching with an emphasis on Early Elementary Education
Tutoring subjects:
Elementary school reading and writing, English as a second language, Spanish, child psychology, ukulele, choir, drawing, and painting
Hi. My name is Raquel, and I'm an artist and educator originally from Managua, Nicaragua. My background allows me to help young learners excel in Spanish and English as a second language (ESL). I design lessons that build real fluency through developmentally appropriate strategies. My native Spanish, combined with my training in child psychology and elementary education, enables me to teach languages in ways that are intuitive, enjoyable, and effective. I hold a Master of Education in Curriculum and Teaching from Boston University, with a concentration in Early Elementary Education, and a B.A. in Psychology from Keiser University’s Latin American Campus. At Williams College, I am Assistant Director of Alumni Engagement for Affinity Programs, supporting and sustaining communities forged as students on campus. I have been teaching for eleven years. Early in my career, I taught English as a Second Language at a school for the deaf and later worked one-on-one with deaf young adults as a literacy and sign-language tutor. I have studied Nicaraguan Sign Language since 2011. This language developed spontaneously among deaf children in Nicaragua in the late twentieth century and has unique grammar, vocabulary, and structure. Its emergence is well known in linguistics because it offered rare insight into how human languages form. This work strengthened my understanding of how languages build grammar and vocabulary and has made me especially effective at helping children develop strong foundations in Spanish and English. I am also an artist and musician. I have sung in choirs for more than twenty years, direct children’s choirs, play ukulele, and teach drawing and painting in several mediums. When appropriate, I incorporate music and art to make Spanish or ESL lessons engaging, memorable, and fun. Everyone learns differently, and one-on-one tutoring is a wonderful way for students to receive specialized attention so they can really thrive. I'm looking forward to meeting you and working together to apply my skills and experience to make school fun while also determining learning tools that can be applied for years to come.
Soleil
Williams College, class of 2028, majoring in History and Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies
Tutoring subjects:
English, Literature, Grammar, History (medieval Europe and America since the 1400s), Gender Studies, and Drawing (digital and physical)
Hi there!! My name is Soleil (so-lay) and I am a sophomore here at Williams majoring in History and Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies. Before coming to Williams, I was a student at Daytona State Community College in Florida where I was a peer writing tutor, teaching writing skills from high school aged students to pupils in their 60s. As a writing tutor I became well acquainted with treating teaching as a back and forth rather than a lecture; I want students to feel engaged and excited to learn about the topic at hand, whether that be 12th century nuns or English grammar. I take special care to get to know my students so that I may teach them in the way that suits them best. I know it helps me to have a visual aid in my tutoring so I always keep a notebook to provide another way of consuming the information. Knowing the student is also vital so that I may make connections to the material at hand. It can be difficult to learn when a concept feels entirely foreign to your mental framework, so I recognize great importance in making those connections. I am comfortable working with students with mental disabilities as well, such as autism, ADHD, and dyslexia. In these cases of mental barriers it is especially important to pique the students’ interest with topics that they enjoy. In addition to my studies in English, History, and Gender Studies, I also have a background in drawing. In recent years I have done more digital art but I retain a good understanding of the drawing fundamentals. Thus, I am always thrilled to incorporate drawing into lessons to add creative intrigue. As a tutor it is always my goal to cultivate an environment of acceptance and curiosity. May we all eternally learn together!!

My name is Noah (He/Him), and I'm a first-year student (Class of 2029) at Williams College. I am planning to major in Political Science. I took 11 AP classes in high school, in a variety of fields, so I'm happy to teach many different subjects like history, science, math, and English. I'm also happy to help students prepare for AP/SAT/ACT/PSAT tests. I have experience working with all different age groups, and I love to help others understand difficult or complex problems. I have worked as an elementary summer camp instructor and have coached middle and high school debaters. I was also involved in debate all throughout high school, and am currently in Mock Trial at Williams. I also play the trumpet and am involved in the Williams Brass and Jazz Ensembles, and I would be happy to tutor trumpet.

Hi! I’m Katherine, a current pre-med senior at Williams College (‘26) majoring in Chemistry and concentrating in Public Health and Asian American Studies. I am an avid singer/performer, artist, and volleyball player, participating in acapella as well as playing volleyball since high school. I have been passionate about mentorship and education all my life, especially when I founded Projects Lifting All Youth, an organization dedicated to empowering young people in my community through academic and personal support. I am incredibly excited to share my experiences and knowledge with the community around me! My teaching experience spans a wide range of ages and learning styles. I have worked as a teaching fellow at Williamstown Elementary School and Mt. Greylock Regional School, where I supported science labs and provided individualized tutoring in English, math, and science, including working one-on-one with a student with Mosaic Down Syndrome. At Williams College, I have also served as a teaching assistant in the Chemistry Department for first-year students. Beyond academics, I have coached and continue to volunteer with the Special Olympics, helping students with and without disabilities build confidence, teamwork skills, and a love for learning through recreational athletics. These experiences have shaped my teaching philosophy: I believe in meeting students where they are, adapting my approach to fit their interests and strengths as well as creating a supportive environment where they feel comfortable asking questions. Whether that means connecting math concepts to a student’s favorite video game or adjusting pacing to match individual needs, I prioritize patience and active listening. I would be thrilled to support you/your student through thoughtful, personalized instruction. I am open to 1-1, 2-1, and 3-1 tutoring. Please feel free to connect with me if you are interested!
