About Emma

Hello! My name is Emma Ventresca, and I am a student at Yale University. Through the National Honor Society Peer Tutor Program and teaching Taekwondo classes as a fourth-degree black belt, I have taught students of all ages in multiple disciplines. Additionally, I received acceptances from universities such as Princeton, Stanford, Brown, Cornell, and Duke, in addition to the Stamps Scholarship at Notre Dame and the Jefferson Scholarship at the University of Virginia. I am currently double majoring in Economics and Theater and Performance Studies. These achievements have granted me first-hand experience with standardized testing, the college application process, and admissions. Having been named a National Merit Scholar and AP Scholar with Distinction for my academics and service in high school, I am also familiar with engaging with students in meaningful ways while building confidence in the classroom. I am passionate about helping students define and reach their idea of success as well as granting them the tools they will need to excel on their standardized assessments such as the SAT and AP exams.

I started teaching in a non-academic sense as a fourth-degree black belt instructor in Taekwondo during my first year of high school. Since then, I have instructed classes with students from age three through adulthood. In an academic sense, I have taught since my junior year of high school as a peer tutor for the National Honor Society program. I was also a student coach of my mock trial team, granting me further experience in a formal classroom setting.



Academic achievements in my teaching fields: 

National Merit Scholar

National Honor Society Scholarship Finalist (25 students nationwide)

SAT Score: 1570 (800 Math, 770 Reading and Writing)

SAT Math II Subject Test: 800

Valedictorian, Class of 2022

AP Scholar with Distinction/Scores of 5 on AP Exams (AP Calculus AB/BC, AP Computer Science Principles, AP English Composition, AP English Literature, AP U.S. History, AP World History, AP European History, AP U.S. Government, AP Environmental Science, and AP Spanish Literature

College in High School Classes: CHS Statistics (University of Pittsburgh), CHS Religion (Carlow University)

Hispanic Scholarship Fund Scholar

BEST OF this website 2022: (concealed information) website/pa/pittsburgh/sat-tutoring/

Working with students means truly taking the time to understand their specific learning styles. As a tutor, it is most important for me to take my students' goals to heart when teaching and allow them to explore the content in an effective and engaging way.



I have worked with students in a high school setting one-on-one as a peer tutor.

This summer, I was an instructor for the Yale Young Global Scholars program. I created and taught my own seminar courses for academically excellent high school juniors and seniors.

I currently tutor high school students online and in-person for standardized tests.

I would advise my students to always stay focused on doing their best work and not be too concerned about having a "perfect" outcome at first. I would ask them to take their work seriously but also remember to enjoy the effort they put into their assignments. After all, they are getting closer to their own goals every time they study, and that is something to celebrate!



It brought so much joy to my heart to see the Class of 2028 at Yale begin to take shape on this past early decision day! I remember how exciting it was for me to receive college acceptances, so it was lovely to see Yale release a special article about the next class of Bulldogs!



A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Students should think about their learning style in three main ways: How they studied in the past, how they study in the present, and how they would like to study to better achieve their goals. It is very helpful for them to think through what learning skills they would like to improve upon and implement before speaking with a teacher. It is also important for students to outline their goals for tutoring so the teacher knows what students personally value in each session.
