Over the past 15 years I have been committed to helping students and families achieve academic success. I provide personalized tutoring services across a wide range of subjects. I offer academic support, test preparation, and executive functioning coaching, for students from elementary school through college.
About Grant
Pronouns: They/Them/Theirs
I use a holistic approach towards STEM education. With a comprehensive knowledge of Math, Chemistry, Biology, Physics, and Engineering, I empower my students to make interdisciplinary connections across the STEM subjects. While earning a B.S. in chemistry from Harvey Mudd College, I broke 10-year lab records in my thesis work: applications of quantum physics in thin film solar cells. I have since spent a few years teaching and developing high school curriculum for chemistry, psychology, and math in Brooklyn. An educator for 10+ years, my teaching style is rigorous and affirming. When not tutoring, I love to talk about any genre of music or professional sports; I also make botanical artwork and write poetry.
Academic Tutoring
With over a decade of tutoring experience, I offer personalized instruction in a wide range of STEM subjects, from elementary school to college level. With a special focus on math, chemistry, and physics, I work with students to build a deep understanding of concepts and improve critical thinking skills. Whether you're struggling to understand fractions or aiming to get a 5 on your AP tests, I’m here to help you succeed. Together, we’ll tackle challenges, build confidence, and make learning these subjects engaging and accessible!
Test Prep
Test prep companies claim to help students "beat the test," but this ignores that test-taking is a building block of educational achievement.
I build core concepts and teach test strategies, while also instilling transferable testing skills that are deeper than quick fixes.
Test Prep Offerings: ACT; SAT; SHSAT; AP & IB
Executive Functioning Coaching
As an executive functioning coach, I specialize in helping students develop the skills they need to succeed academically and personally. With a background in working with individuals who face a variety of learning challenges, I provide tailored strategies to improve organization, time management, focus, and self-regulation. If you are struggling with ADHD, dyslexia, anxiety, or other learning differences, I use peer-reviewed research-driven strategies to help bridge the gap in your academic need.
“Working with Grant made preparing for my calc III final easy, but more importantly fun! We worked through all the pain points slowly. Absorbing the material felt like a breeze because they made it a conversation I could relate to.”
-Oliver R. Calculus II & III
“We don’t know what we would have done without Grant. Montauk has had them as a rock to hold onto.”

Parents of Montauk M. Geometry & Calculus
“I wish that Grant would have just taught me the whole class.”
