I am a passionate Computer Science educator with over six years of experience across university teaching, AI curriculum design, and dedicated one-on-one STEM tutoring. I hold a Master of Technology in Computer Science (4.0 GPA) and a Bachelor of Technology in Computer Science. Currently, I serve as Lead AI Instructor at ThinkAI Academy and a CS and Mathematics tutor in the San Francisco Bay Area. Previously, I spent three years as an Assistant Professor of Computer Science at Jain College of Engineering and Research, lecturing sections of 60+ students in core subjects like Data Structures, Algorithms, Object-Oriented Programming, and Database Management Systems while maintaining a 96% student pass rate. I work with students across all academic levels, ranging from high school students tackling AP Computer Science, SAT prep, and foundational math to college undergraduates mastering advanced algorithms, software design, and programming in Java, Python, C++, and SQL.

My teaching approach focuses on practical, hands-on problem-solving rather than passive lectures. I lead with worked examples, live interactive coding, and real-time debugging sessions to help students build strong mental models and clean engineering habits early on. Rather than just giving answers, I ask targeted questions so students learn to debug and analyze unfamiliar problems independently. Whether you are preparing for exams, seeking structured support for university computer science coursework, or building practical skills from scratch, I adapt each lesson to your specific learning pace, syllabus, and academic goals.
