Caleb S.
Education: University of Pennsylvania
Study Zone: Caleb decided to go to Penn to be able to study history in the nation's most storied city. However, after being exposed to higher level game theory, economics, and computer science as an undergrad, he specified his major in the history department to Economic History to back his research with a more quantitative focus. After school, he worked in crypto as a VC before leaving to play poker professionally, leveraging his background in both Economic History and Game Theory. Still, American History remains his favorite subject to tutor.
Superpower: Caleb spent two years tutoring high school students while at Penn, and is most proud of his ability to help students develop a repeatable approach to hard questions. He believes that his stellar ability to teach students how to reduce overwhelming or multi-part questions down to their core is what sets him apart.
Proud Moments: Caleb has always been an avid basketball player and fan, and has made it a point to volunteer time and resources to under-resourced youth sports programs. While at Penn, he coached four separate 11u co-ed basketball teams during their winter seasons. However, while he was coaching his third team since living in Philly, he noticed that many of the players didn't have the proper footwear to be playing basketball. Caleb organized a secret fundraiser in the Penn Community to buy the team new sneakers and surprised the team with new shoes in the middle of the season. The 2022 South Park Cavaliers would go on to win the championship that year!!!
