Hi! I’m Puja. I graduated magna cum laude from the University of Texas at Dallas with a degree in Biomedical Engineering. I have worked as an engineer at a cybersecurity startup in the Bay Area for 7+ years, and I’m pursuing a Master of Arts in Teaching (Secondary Mathematics) with the goal of becoming a high school math teacher.
I have over three years of tutoring experience in a wide range of math subjects, including Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Geometry, Pre-Calculus, Trigonometry, AP Calculus AB, AP Calculus BC, SAT Math, ACT Math, GMAT, and GRE. I’m also volunteering in a local high school Algebra 2 classroom, where I assist students who need additional support and frequently teach lessons to the entire class.
My teaching style blends direct instruction with engaging, real-world connections to make math feel relevant and approachable. I introduce new concepts in a clear and creative way, guide students through examples, and then give them the chance to practice and build confidence. My goal is to help every student not only understand math but also enjoy the process of learning it.
I’m always happy to tailor lessons to fit each student’s learning style and goals - whether that means strengthening foundational skills, preparing for exams, or diving deeper into challenging topics.
