Christina Coravos

Highway 9 Office Director, Test Prep & Academic Tutor


Biography

As a child, I created my own standardized test that I named the CSST (Coravos Schools Standardized Test). I made my little sister and all her friends take this 3-hour exam, which included strict time limits for each section: English, math, and science. After grading their tests, I mailed score reports to everyone’s parents, complete with charts and percentiles. Clearly, my childhood dream to become a tutor has come true!

After growing up in Boston, I moved to Houston, Texas, where I graduated summa cum laude from Rice University with a bachelor’s degree in chemistry and linguistics. I then worked as a teacher in public and private schools before joining AJ Tutoring, where I am proud to serve as an office director.

I’ve successfully guided students to A’s in their classes for algebra, geometry, precalculus, calculus, statistics, and more, as well as 800s on the SAT math and English sections, 36s on all sections of the ACT, and top scores on placement tests for elite universities.

Throughout my years as an educator, I’ve come to appreciate the unique ways in which each student learns. Whether we’re preparing for a test or learning new concepts, I love helping my students strengthen their skills and reach their potential. By listening and assessing, and then sharing new tools and perspectives, I empower my students to refine their approaches and perform at their best. To further expand my ability to support students with learning differences and testing anxiety, I also completed specialized training for ADHD and received my masters degree in holistic counseling psychology from John F. Kennedy University.

When I am not tutoring, I enjoy walking in nature, creating art, and exploring new things!

Happy parents and students.
