About Diya


Bio

Hello, I'm Diya. I received my undergraduate degree from UCLA, studying chemical engineering. Throughout middle and high school I have had my fair share of difficulty in certain classes and I have always been grateful to be able to receive extra tutelage that helped me overcome my own struggles. I want to continue this effort and give back as tutor to other students who are facing a similar situation.

I have spent the past four years tutoring AP Chemistry, Algebra 1 & 2, and ACT subjects....

Hello, I'm Diya. I received my undergraduate degree from UCLA, studying chemical engineering. Throughout middle and high school I have had my fair share of difficulty in certain classes and I have always been grateful to be able to receive extra tutelage that helped me overcome my own struggles. I want to continue this effort and give back as tutor to other students who are facing a similar situation.

I have spent the past four years tutoring AP Chemistry, Algebra 1 & 2, and ACT subjects. All my students received scores of 4+ on the AP Chemistry exam and improved their grades in classes as well. I hope to continue this tutoring effort with your student!

Additionally, I personally am an academically driven student. I was a Dean's Honor list student. I also scored 5s on all my 9 AP exams (including Chemistry, Biology, Calc BC, Computer Science etc.). I also scored a 35 on the ACT. I want to share the success strategies I learned during high school to other students who may be struggling as I know exactly how that feels!

My favorite part of tutoring is genuinely watching as a student gains a grasp of concepts they once found challenging and develop a sense of confidence in the subject. I will respond to any requests as soon as possible. Please feel free to reach out with any questions and to schedule a lesson!

Amazing Tutor!

Diya was a great tutor and very patient. I was so nervous about having a tutor for the first time but she was amazing. She listened to my questions and was able to provide guidance in how best to approach my equations. She made the experience very smooth and effortless!

Supportive Tutor

Diya was my first tutor so I was very apprehensive of what would happen during classes. She quickly put me at ease and started going over concepts/practice problems/homework I was struggling with. I was very scared about Honors Chem as I didn't understand most of the material that we had previously learned but I was soon able to get higher grades and more confidence in many Chem topics. It was a great experience, I highly recommend Diya!

Tutor you can count on

I’m extremely pleased to have Diya as my tutor and over the last 3 years, Diya has been someone I can count on for help in multiple subjects at both Pre-AP and regular level courses. She has helped me immensely in Algebra, Geometry and Chemistry and has had a valuable part in my academic performance. Diya is flexible to your desired schedule and always there when you need her. She has always been able to connect with me and tailor the session to my exact needs. She ensures I understand the material conceptually and always follows up post session with our discussion notes for my review. Another standout aspect that really helped me was her ability to send me practice tests when needed. Diya is also very responsive and supportive. There was a time when I needed her very badly for an upcoming major grade exam as I didn’t understand the topic and was very nervous. Despite being sick, she came on for the lesson to help me prepare for my test and regain my confidence. Diya always ensures I’m well prepared for every exam and this attests to her level of caring and attentiveness. I am very confident that Diya will be an invaluable resource to anyone who needs her help just as she has been to me.

Excellent start

Diya had a good lesson plan and tutoring approach in the very first session. The Wyzant platform also offers good features like recorded sessions and seamless billing.
