Hi! My name is Umair Ahmad. I am Bachelors of Science in Biology undergraduate, from the University of California Riverside. I love learning and teaching math and science, and believe that the best teaching is done with patience. I have 2 years of experience as a math tutor working at Mathnasium, but have worked with kids much longer as a volunteer at my former elementary school. I would say my teaching style is specialized towards each kids’ needs, making sure that what they learn is in an interesting and fun way, that sticks to them and is more about understanding than just memorizing.

Marc E. says, "When I first began my calculus class, I was overwhelmed by the complexity of the subject and uncertain of my ability to grasp the intricate concepts. From our very first session, it became clear that I was in the hands of an exceptional tutor. FRANK has a genuine gift for breaking down intricate mathematical concepts into digestible and understandable components. His patience, deep knowledge, and passion for the subject are truly commendable. Each session was tailored to address my specific areas of concern, and FRANK consistently employed various teaching methods to ensure that I truly grasped the topic at hand. Beyond the lessons, what truly stood out was his genuine interest in my success. Whether it was providing additional resources, being available for last-minute doubts, or offering words of encouragement, FRANK went above and beyond the role of a typical tutor. Thanks to FRANK, not only did I pass my calculus class, but I did so with a newfound appreciation and understanding of the subject. If you're struggling with calculus (or any math topic, for that matter), I recommend my man FRANK." Read more
