From my post interviews at both of my jobs, I was told I'm good at realting to the students and bringing stuggle areas to a place that they can make sense of it. Instead of explaining the mathy math from Mr. Math teacher, I present the problem in a more approachable way It's nice to see students have that "oh yeah" moment and figure everything out. I also like knowing that I made an impact in there academic career, a thing I think is not as appreciated as much as it should be

I struggled a lot as an adolescent in many subjects and was given little to no help from the education system. As I got older and went to highschool I started to pick up on what I wasnt good at, so much so that by sophomore year I was in all the honors and AP classes my school offered.

My best subjects were Chemistry, Algebra I and II, and Geometry. I am currently attending the U...

Hi all! I just love maths. Been a topper in maths throughout, from undergrad engineering courses in India or in my Masters of Financial Mathematics. I used to tutor in University at Buffalo to grads and under grads taking maths courses. I have worked in finance so working with numbers has been a constant for last 10 years. I'm easy going and relaxed and believe in clearing the concepts and why's and don'ts of the math rules. Check me out and hope i'll be able to clear your doubts. Thanks

On average, students take 9 to 50 sessions.
