Luke Verlinsky

Teaches at Veritas Prep

Luke Verlinsky was born in Fort Stewart, Georgia, but was raised in the suburbs of Los Angeles, where he graduated valedictorian at his high school with over a 4.0 GPA. He won the National Merit Scholarship Competition, competed on his high school’s national championship winning robotics team, and was captain of the varsity volleyball team. He matriculated at UCLA as a Regent Scholar, where he studies Biochemistry, plays Ultimate Frisbee, and pursues his passion in art on his spare time, describing himself in his blog as “a strict black and white fundamentalist who dabbles in color.” He has been teaching mathematics and the sciences since early high school, and found a sharp interest in tutoring. He fulfills this love for teaching by helping students earn higher scores on their SATs and allowing them to attend a university where they will belong as well.
