About
I have been the head tutor of College of Science and have been tutoring one-on-one Math sessions, for over 9 years now. Tutoring has been my passion and helping maximum students, especially in the online education scenario, post-COVID is my current aim. I tutor all Math courses ranging from Algebra (1 and 2), to Calculus (1,2), Statistics and Probability and other college Math courses.
Tutoring students is always so exciting and it comes with regular challenges of trying to explain concepts in the best way possible to students. Since each student has their own way of learning, trying to develop different techniques for helping them grasp concepts better is always something i strive for!

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
My typical process involves identifyinh and analyzing the root problems, a student faces, and developing strategies and plans to help them improve. I also do per-session assesments initially, and report the student's improvement, growth, strengths, weaknesses to their parents/students, in order for them to stay up-to-date.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have Masters in Mathematics and Computer Science from San Jose State University, and a head Math tutor at College of Science plus a private tutor for Math and Computer Science courses, for about 9 years now.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
I prefer discussing the pricing with the parents/students, understand their comfort level, needs, complexity of the subject/request, and take other details into account before quoting a price.
