Hi, I am an Applied Math & CS Major at Berkeley and love to tutor

Mokshith C.

I am an Applied Mathematics student at UC Berkeley with a 4.0 college GPA and a strong foundation in calculus, linear algebra, differential equations, discrete mathematics, statistics, Python, and data structures and algorithms. My education has trained me to explain not only how to solve a problem, but why each method works. I tutor mathematics from middle school algebra through college level calculus, along with introductory higher mathematics and Python programming.

I have several years of experience teaching students in one on one and classroom settings. At UC Santa Cruz, I tutored college students and worked as a grader for Discrete Mathematics. In these roles, I helped students work through difficult concepts, reviewed their reasoning, identified common mistakes, and provided useful feedback. I also taught groups of roughly 10 to 12 students, primarily ages 11 to 14, as a Coding Ninjas instructor. This experience taught me how to support students with different skill levels, learning styles, and levels of confidence.

My tutoring method is centered on active practice. I first determine exactly where the student’s understanding breaks down, explain the concept in plain language, and work through an example with them. I then have the student solve a similar problem independently while explaining their reasoning. I adjust the pace and difficulty for each student and focus on genuine understanding instead of short term memorization. My goal is not simply to help students complete an assignment, but to give them the confidence and problem solving skills to succeed independently.
