About Nishaan


Bio

Background: SAT of 1550 (790/760) during COVID, which encouraged me to prioritize long-term retention. I graduated from NYU Stern with a dual degree in Finance and Computing & Data Science, alongside a separate school degree in Applied Mathematics & Computer Science. I have studied under some fo the greatest minds from Wall Street and Silicon Valley, so I assure you that I can tutor for anything related to business - including economics, finance, accounting, marketing, interview preparation,...

Background: SAT of 1550 (790/760) during COVID, which encouraged me to prioritize long-term retention. I graduated from NYU Stern with a dual degree in Finance and Computing & Data Science, alongside a separate school degree in Applied Mathematics & Computer Science. I have studied under some fo the greatest minds from Wall Street and Silicon Valley, so I assure you that I can tutor for anything related to business - including economics, finance, accounting, marketing, interview preparation, and more. Moreover, I can tutor CS up through Data Structures & Algorithms, and mathematics through linear algebra and differential equations.

I have tutored for nearly 8 years, so helping students succeed is a fond part of my life. I tutor for what the student prefers - directed questions for specific exams, or concept mastery for general understanding. Both avenues involve direct application over at least 4 days to store long-term memory, utilizing the hippocampus. Moreover, for tennis, I peaked at a skill level of 8 UTR within 2 years of starting competitive play, and similar growth was seen in chess, baseball, golf, and other sports, so I am confident in helping players improve rapidly.

If you wish to be tutored in another subject, then please send me a message. I likely have experience in said field.

Approved Subjects

Algebra 1

Algebra 1

Recent STEM graduate; formerly in math team and LEAP program in elementary school, so I understand what younger individuals are looking for to progress faster.
Algebra 2

Algebra 2

Learned math up through Multivariable Calculus, Multivariate Statistics & Forecasting Models, and Linear Algebra. Applied Algebra 2 heavily in these subjects, finance courses, and within machine learning algorithms.
AMC (Competition math)

AMC (Competition math)

I used to do MathCounts competitions (including AMC) at Yale. I also studied higher levels of conceptual math at NYU. My handle of algebra, trigonometry, and patterns are superb.
Baseball

Baseball

Started baseball at 4 years old. Pitched, hit, and fielded at 3rd base and catcher. Won little league championships and as on all-star teams prior to high school, and play high school baseball for a year before focusing primarily on tennis due to Covid.
Basketball

Basketball

Played basketball from 6 years old through high school. Played shooting guard at an earlier age, and then point guard at an older age once my height advantage disappeared - so I can teach you about mid-range, 3-point shoots, finishing at the rims, and drills you can do individually or with friends.
Bodybuilding

Bodybuilding

Benn working out under professional trainers since I was 14. I understand the science behind bodybuilding and have optimal exercises for each muscle. I also understand variations in volume, wait times, and more.
Business

Business

4 years of business-focused study at NYU Stern shaped my foundation of understanding. I have also worked across multiple verticals and can apply work scenarios to my teachings. Furthermore, I am comfortable in all facets of the business degree, from finance to marketing.
Chess

Chess

Peak 1800 ELO on former chess.com account. Currently around 1200-1600 ELO range, so I can comfortably teach anyone up to 1000 ELO. I specialize in mainline openings and mid-game tactics. My puzzles rating on chess.com has been as high as 3400.
Computer Science

Computer Science

I received an A in Data Structures & Algorithms in Java, a weed out class at NYU and prerequisite for jobs at FAANG-tier companies. I also learned sequence-oriented programming and AI project implementation in Python. Furthermore, I have experience with GitHub and LeetCode, which can help with student improvement and immersion into the field.
Elementary Math

Elementary Math

5+ years of tutoring experience, converting students from C averages to A averages from elementary school through high school.
Finance

Finance

NYU Stern Finance Undergraduate Alumnus
Geometry

Geometry

Received an A in Geometry in high school and participated in math competitions using my knowledge of geometric properties and laws. Applied my knowledge up through multivariable calculus, where you integrate functions to find the areas of complex 2d and 3d surfaces. Have a strong command and understanding of foundational concepts as well when teaching beginners.
Precalculus

Precalculus

A in PreCalculus in high school and 790 on the SAT math portion, with math up to Law of Cosines and matrices, with only some practice tests due to COVID. Applied these concepts to Calculus 1 through Calculus 3 (Multivariable Calculus), as well as linear algebra. Very comfortable with radians and degrees - please give me prior notice if you would like to focus on the polar coordinate system.
SAT Math

SAT Math

1550 (790/760) during COVID, so I understand how to hone intuition to be prepared for the test long-term.
Tennis

Tennis

I was the captain of my high school tennis team after starting on the team only two years prior. I won MVP after practicing for 6-12 hours daily for those two years, including a tournament schedule that I managed myself. I promise that I can help you improve, and fast.
