About

College Prep Advantage was created by Erin Grace, a math teacher whose students were always asking for tips to help improve their SAT scores. Erin has been teaching mathematics for the Lower Merion School District since 2001. She is certified in mathematics, chemistry, and English, but to date has enjoyed teaching mathematics too much to leave it. In addition to her teaching, Erin has been an SAT tutor since 2000.

Erin is a graduate of Lehigh University with Bachelor’s Degrees in Mathematics and Chemistry as well as a Master’s Degree in Secondary Education. While a graduate student at Lehigh, Erin was awarded the Phi Delta Kappa Distinguished Student Award, a prestigious honor given to the single highest achieving student in the School of Education. As an undergraduate, Erin was a Presidential Scholar, a Phi Beta Kappa scholar, and a Roy Eckerdt College Scholar. She graduated with high honors (magna cum laude) and departmental honors in both mathematics and chemistry. During her tenure at Lehigh, Erin tutored for the STAR Academy program, an early intervention program designed to enrich the academic performance of economically challenged and at-risk students in the Lehigh Valley. This program is still in existence today, and inspired Erin to become an educator.

In her spare time, Erin can be found hanging with her husband, their three children, and their numerous pets. Most days are spent cheering on the sidelines of the kids' games, but they try to find extra time for hiking, exploring, and beaching whenever they can squeeze it in! Erin also likes to dabble with paint and considers it a blessing to live in the Brandywine Valley amid "Wyeth Country".
