Hi, my name is Ruth and I have a passion for helping people learn. I was home schooled along with many siblings by very well-educated parents. I made excellent grades, and started tutoring my younger siblings when I was middle-school-aged. I have tutored them for 5+ years in a variety of subjects, including math, science, English, social studies, and standardized test prep.

I came in contact with Santhosh through a mutual friend and he helped me dramatically improve my SAT score. He knew the right tips and tricks to ace the test." Read more

I currently hold a Bachelor of Science in Counseling Psychology and am in the middle of my master's in clinical mental health counseling. While in college, I focused on the health sciences for 3 years, so I am well-versed in math and science, in addition to my English and Social sciences-based degree. I have over 6+ years of tutoring experience focused mainly on K-12 and some college degree programs. Fun fact about me, I love learning languages.

Chemistry was a subject I struggled with heavily during my Junior Year of high school. Santhosh would help me a ton during our tutoring sessions and the tests/quizzes felt like a breeze. I would highly recommend Santhosh's services to anyone who is looking for assistance.
