Every student has their specific needs and strategies that help them to excel, so I work around each student’s specific needs. I’ve taught the SHSAT for years and have helped my many students gain acceptance to specialized schools, including Bronx High School of Science, and Stuyvesant.

York College BS in Psychology -
I enjoy explaining difficult concepts as simply as possible to help my students succeed. I've helped high schoolers grasp materials on standardized exams by dissecting concepts and explaining concepts in laymens’ terms. I've used mnemonics to improve test scores and turned abstract ideas into relatable stories.

I help students thrive in their studies by explaining difficult concepts and showing how the material we learn can solve problems in the real world. I also love helping students find meaning in school beyond attaining grades. I’ve helped many of my students excel on the SHSAT and gain acceptance to top specialized high schools.

What parents and students say

I am so impressed by the thought and heart that goes into every tutor placement at Gooroo. My son began working with Yoojin (Gooroo) in May 2018 for the SHSAT. Her sessions with him were precisely tailored to his needs, and she was firm but kind with him. He scored high enough on the test to qualify for all of the specialized schools. Yoojin then coached my daughter through the 4th-grade state tests, and, though they are VERY different children, she immediately found the right approach for her.
