More about your Ivy League tutor, Troup Wood:
After years of struggling academically, I graduated from Dartmouth College with honors. Now, I want to be the mentor I wish I had when I was younger.
I think learning should be fun and interactive -- but at the same time, I ground my teaching in the latest brain science behind learning and talent development, including the "growth mindset" developed by a professor at Stanford.
100% of my students have not only improved their grades, study skills, and motivation, but also become aware of how their brain approaches challenges and how their studies fit into the larger picture of their lives.
As a college prep expert, I have been featured in Variety Magazine and flown to over 10 cities, including Beijing and Shanghai, to run workshops on tailoring applications to American universities.
Having served as a volunteer applicant interviewer for the Ivy League university Dartmouth College, I know the specific traits elite universities are looking for. Thats how I'll ensure you or your child has an edge over the competition.
My specialty is guiding students through the personal statement essay. As an award winning filmmaker and CAPE New Writers fellow, I can help students find their creative voice and structure an essay that highlights the qualities admissions officers are searching for.
Universities my clients have been admitted to include:
Brown University, Columbia University, Dartmouth College, Duke, USC Viterbi School of Engineering, Purdue University, Virginia Tech, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Oberlin College, Colorado School of Mines, University of Colorado Boulder, University of Minnesota Twin Cities, Rochester Institute of Technology, Embry-Riddle, St. Louis University, San Diego State University, UCSD and more!

Online is available too. Services: COLLEGE PREP TUTORING As a college prep expert, I’ve been featured in Variety Magazine and flown to China to give speeches for the country’s largest education company, New Oriental. I’ve spoken to over 500 students, college counselors, and parents about tailoring applications to elite American universities. Having interviewed applicants for Dartmouth College as an alumni volunteer, I know what top schools are looking for, and I have their playbook in my back pocket. That’s how I’ll ensure you or your child has an edge over the competition. My specialty is guiding students through the college application essay. I believe everybody has a story to tell, and together we can tell that story in a way that fits the specific criteria admissions officers want. HOMEWORK & WRITING I also tutor Elementary, Middle School, High School, and College students on coursework in the humanities. As an English teacher, I volunteer inside Juvenile Hall, which has taught me how to engage even the most difficult students. Perhaps it's also worth mentioning that the position came with LA County's strictest safety and background checks.
