Hi! I’m Tyrone! I’m an Academic Coach with Staying Ahead of the Game LLC. I graduated from Brown University in 2024 with a degree in Music and Modern Culture & Media. I have over 6 years of tutoring experience with SAT and ACT prep, including working directly under the Khan Academy umbrella, and more than 4 years as a collegiate entry exam writing coach. I also teach AP Music Theory and modern musical software. I chose SAOTG because its mission resonates with me personally. As someone who has navigated neurodivergence both as a student and tutor, I know firsthand how powerful executive functioning skills can be. Supporting students through those same challenges is both meaningful and fulfilling.
