Hi! My name is Hajra S., and I am currently studying Business Administration at the University of California, Riverside (UCR). I have been tutoring since 2019 and have worked with 26 students through Wyzant and private tutoring, supporting learners from Pre-K through 12th grade. I tutor a variety of academic subjects and am bilingual in English and Urdu/Hindi, which allows me to provide additional language support to multilingual students.

My teaching approach is patient, structured, and personalized to each student's learning style, academic level, and goals. I break down challenging concepts into smaller steps, use visual aids and clear explanations, incorporate guided practice, and check for understanding throughout each session. I also use educational resources such as i-Ready, IXL, and online worksheets to reinforce classroom lessons, provide targeted practice, and strengthen foundational skills. I adapt my methods to help students with different learning needs build understanding, stay organized, and become more confident and independent learners.

My goal is to create a welcoming and encouraging environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes, and learning at their own pace. Whether a student needs help with homework, reading, writing, math, study skills, assignment organization, or test preparation, I tailor each lesson to their individual needs. I strive to help every student improve their academic performance, build confidence, and develop effective learning habits that support long-term success.

Excellent and knowledgeable on the topic.

Harja was very patient and took the time to explain the materials. I enjoy the recap at the end to ensure the student understands the materials. Looking forward to working with her and will definitely recommend her.

Harja is excellent!

What a great tutor! Hajra makes learning math fun for my son, she quickly assess where he is at and finds ways to inch him forward. I was just terrible at math and don’t want this for my son. We will be exploring ways to tie this all into real world math down the road here :)
