Columbia University, BA in Comparative Literature

Julian, Spanish tutor, LogicPrep Education

Part Venezuelan and part Peruvian, Julián grew up in Venezuela, Panamá, the United Kingdom, and the United States. He received his BA from Columbia University in Comparative Literature, and wrote a thesis on the novel and the introduction of electoral politics in Venezuela in the mid-twentieth century.

Outside of his interests in literature, art, and cinema, Julián likes to cook and walk his dog, a poorly trained labradoodle called Luna. His goal at LogicPrep is to help students through the tough process of preparing for and attending universities that are far from their homes and families. Julián also volunteers his time working with underserved students through The Jesse Kolber Foundation scholar program.

What LogicPrep Tutors Say About Julián…

Julián is the coolest guy in town. He embodies a laid back, but a deeply insightful ethos.

Julián is extremely committed to his students and their success. He’s easy-going, but he’s not a tutor who will let you get away with skipping your homework. He knows what you’re capable of and won’t let you settle for less!

You can tell that Julián’s students really enjoy their lessons with him. He connects to them really well and will adjust his energy level and communication style to match each student.

Julián is so interesting and has so many layers, with strong connections to Venezuela, Peru, the United States, Brazil, and the UK, and he even has his own film production company! He’s also a great cook. For a time, he would bring a cake into the office every Friday for the LP team and students.
