About
Hi, I'm Avani! I am an incoming freshman at the University of Virginia majoring in Cognitive Science. As a tutor, I hope to introduce students to challenging concepts in a novel way that will foster understanding on an individual level.
I know firsthand how frustrating it can be to study for a class when you don't understand the topic, and it seems fruitless, but in my experience as a tutor, once a student understands a concept, that very often motivates him or her to keep trying and study harder in the future, and that’s the impact that I hope to achieve. I love seeing the light dawn on students I tutor when they finally understand a concept.
