Introduction	Ilana Walder-Biesanz finished navigating her own college admissions journey four years ago. She is now a senior at Franklin W. Olin College of Engineering, where she studies systems engineering, literature, theater, and philosophy. She has years of tutoring experience in math, science, standardized test preparation, and languages, including her current job as a writing tutor for her peers at college. Although she likes working with students all the way from choosing a topic to completing an essay, as a grammar nerd she takes particular interest in perfecting sentence structure and punctuation in near-final essays. She is a proud supporter of the underutilized hyphen and em-dash.
Favorite Music	Musicals, opera (especially Verdi and Donizetti)
Favorite Books	Les Miserables, Die Leiden des jungen Werther, Ficciones, Cyrano de Bergerac, Antigone, Kabale und Liebe
