After I got in, people reached out to me asking for help with their university applications.
At first, I did not think of teaching students.
However, later I realized that I have a passion for building extracurriculars, and especially starting and scaling passion projects.
After discussing this with Valera, I decided to start "Portfolio Accelerator" program.
Portfolio Accelerator is where I help passionate applicants accelerate their portfolios to an Ivy-level application.
I first started "Portfolio Accelerator" program as a full-support 1-1 course. In the first cohort, I mentored four students. All of my students achieve great results -

16 students joined the second cohort. The video above is from our last lesson. All of them were able to start their passion projects, do other activities. Some of my students in this cohort got assistant research positions from MIT, Cambridge, George Washington University and HKUST PhD candidates.
Teaching taught me a lot about what you applicants struggle with portfolios. I will be using that knowledge to help you guys in the webinar coming on 13th of July.
5 days left until the webinar.
