I’m a certified high school science teacher and fourth-year medical student with over 10 years of tutoring experience. My goal is to help students not only master the material but also build the study strategies and confidence to succeed independently.

I’ve taught and tutored students in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Organic Chemistry, and Psychology, all at the high school and college levels. I also specialize in standardized test prep, tutoring students for the SAT, ACT, and MCAT. I specifically emphasize test-taking strategies that can be applied across subjects. My students have ranged from those strengthening foundational skills to those aiming for top grades in advanced science courses.

In my sessions, I emphasize two things: clear understanding and effective learning techniques. I adapt each lesson to your unique learning style so that you can retain concepts and apply them across future classes. Many of my students who once struggled have gone on to earn A’s and B’s and regain their confidence in science and math.

Before entering medicine, I taught high school Biology, Physics, and Chemistry full-time. My background in neuroscience and chemistry allows me to connect theory to real-world applications, helping students see why what they’re learning matters.

Above all, I care deeply about your growth. My goal isn’t just to get you through your next exam; it’s to help you learn how to learn.

Approved Subjects

ACT Math

ACT Math

I’m an MD with a strong STEM background and prior experience as a high school science teacher, so I know how to break complex ideas into clear, teachable steps. I help students improve ACT Math by strengthening core algebra, geometry, and problem-solving skills while also building timing, accuracy, and test-day strategy. My teaching style is structured, encouraging, and focused on helping students understand why an approach works so they can solve unfamiliar problems with confidence.
ACT Reading

ACT Reading

I’m an MD with a strong academic reading and analysis background, as well as prior experience teaching high school students in science and critical thinking. I help students improve ACT Reading by sharpening passage analysis, inference skills, pacing, and evidence-based answer selection so they can read efficiently without losing accuracy. My approach is structured and strategy-focused, helping students recognize common question patterns, avoid trap answers, and build confidence across prose fiction, social science, humanities, and natural science passages.

Amazing MCAT tutor!

When I first started, I was completely overwhelmed by the MCAT studying process. She gave me lots of helpful tips of on how to dissect passages and how to answer questions at a faster pace with easy to apply strategies. I wouldn't have increased both my Bio/Biochem and Chem/Phys score without her.

Sunita, 6 lessons with Ashwinee

Patient and knowledgeable

Ashwinee helped my son prepare for a honors geometry midterm. He was very nervous but when they were done he was calm and confident. Very knowledgeable. Excellent highly recommend

LIDIA, 3 lessons with Ashwinee

Most thorough and patient tutor

Ashwinee helped my daughter in Chemistry. She took the time to go through every question and didn't move on to the next problem until she was comfortable. Naomi is definitely more confident and feels Ashwinee is very proficient and a natural at explaining the difficult concepts of Chem in a way that she is able to understand without causing confusion. I would highly recommend utilizing her services, she is cheerful and shows enthusiasm to her students. Thank you Ashwinee can't wait to work with you again!
