• Hood Qaim-maqami

    Hi, my name is Hood and I'm currently a Junior at Montclair High School. I'm a committed student and I'm most interested in computer science (with a focus on cybersecurity), mathematics, and writing. Over the summer, I participated in the Weston Science Scholars program, studying Marine Biology and trying to learn how to stop invasive species. Due to my passion for these subjects, I'm able to provide guidance and make difficult concepts more enjoyable to learn. I've been described as patient and approachable, and I really try to discover a student's unique learning preferences so I can bring out their best. When I'm not in class, you can find me at practice with the high school rowing team or getting in my reps at the YMCA. I also love listening to music, playing chess, and doing my best to give back to the community.

  • Jake Pearlman

    Hello there, I’m Jake. I'm currently a Junior at Montclair High School. My favorite subjects are history, science and math. I’ve recently become obsessed with statistics and sports analytics. I love a good challenge. Whether it’s AP Physics, climbing the Rockies or crushing my competition in Fifa, I'm up for it. I’ve been tutoring for 4 years now and love to help others learn strategies to succeed. I’m easygoing and patient and know how to make one-on-one tutoring seem like a fun activity rather than a chore for younger students. I am a sports fanatic and a die-hard Giants fan, but I’m still willing to tutor fans of all teams except the Cowboys (just kidding). In my free time, I love to hangout with friends, play tennis, box, ski, hike, workout, listen to music and watch stand up comedy.

  • Preston Ward

    I'm Preston and I'm currently an honor roll student in my Junior year at Montclair High School. I thoroughly enjoy history and math and have been tutoring peers and younger students for several years. I also work with children at Kumon and as a counselor at Willow Lake Day Camp. I try to foster a positive, fun and comfortable learning environment for kids who may be struggling and implore students to ask questions, as I believe the people who ask the most will learn the most. I'm an avid soccer fan and enjoy playing as well. I’m a hardcore Manchester City supporter and closer to home I manage the Montclair High soccer team. I'm also a member of Montclair High School’s Black Student Union. In the rest of my free time, I enjoy sports, video games, skiing, music, cooking, riddles, superheroes, movies, tv shows and most of all, hanging out with friends.
