Erin Buckley | Tutor

Erin is a tutor with more than 12 years of experience guiding students through high-stakes testing and academic challenges. As a test prep specialist, she works extensively with students preparing for the ACT, SAT, SSAT, and ISEE. As an academic tutor, she supports students on math, writing, study skills, and a wide range of subject areas as needed.

Erin studied at Stuyvesant, Stanford, Oxford, and Yale. She breaks down complex material in ways that are supportive and empowering, so students can approach their work with confidence and independence. She has extensive experience working with students who have diverse educational profiles, including those with IEPs. Erin’s approach is individualized and highly attuned to each child’s needs.

In all of her work, she aims not only to help students master content but also to strengthen their confidence and sense of self. She often incorporates mindfulness strategies to help students navigate anxiety, especially around testing and academic pressure. Erin sees tutoring as both an academic and emotional partnership.

As a writer-director, actor, and parent, Erin brings empathy, creativity, and deep attentiveness to her work with students. While her students have gone on to attend top colleges and elite boarding schools, she wants them not only to succeed academically, but to feel genuinely supported and understood as people.
