About the course

Are you homeless, a foster youth student, a military veteran, above 24, married, or applying for grad school? In any of these cases, you'll most likely be an independent student for financial aid, which changes the process.

Instructor

I have worked for the past three years as a college adviser helping high school students with the college admissions process. During this time, I helped students with their college essays, SAT/ACT prep, and their college applications. I have also helped tutor peers in college and high school as well as led a middle school mentoring program. I joined Gooroo to make a number of subjects in high school more accessible and easier to understand for all students. I am excited to help students with the college application process as well as math and science subjects so they can achieve their goals and grow individually.
