About Amitoj


Bio

I’m a fourth-year undergraduate at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science and Engineering. My academic journey has been guided by a lifelong passion for learning and teaching. I graduated high school with a 4.0 GPA , 1590 SAT, and 35 ACT, and earned multiple 5s on AP exams including AP Calculus, AP Physics, AP Chemistry, and AP Biology. I was also honored to receive the Bill and Melinda Gates Scholarship, awarded to top students nationwide...

I’m a fourth-year undergraduate at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science and Engineering. My academic journey has been guided by a lifelong passion for learning and teaching. I graduated high school with a 4.0 GPA , 1590 SAT, and 35 ACT, and earned multiple 5s on AP exams including AP Calculus, AP Physics, AP Chemistry, and AP Biology. I was also honored to receive the Bill and Melinda Gates Scholarship, awarded to top students nationwide for academic excellence, leadership, and community impact.

Over the past six years, I’ve worked with students ranging from elementary (around 6–10 years old) through middle/high school (11–18 years old), and occasionally college-level learners (18+). I’ve tutored subjects such as algebra, calculus, chemistry, physics, biology, computer science, and standardized test preparation for the SAT, ACT, and PSAT. My experience spans one-on-one tutoring, small-group lessons, and classroom environments, where I’ve helped students strengthen foundational understanding, master advanced material, and achieve their target exam scores. My coursework at MIT has provided me with a deep background in analytical reasoning, problem solving, and clear communication—skills that I bring into each session to make complex topics understandable and engaging.

My teaching approach is highly personalized and interactive. I focus on understanding how each student thinks and learns best, then adapt my explanations and lesson plans accordingly. Instead of emphasizing memorization, I encourage students to build a strong conceptual understanding and develop real intuition for the material. I often use visualization, diagrams, and step-by-step guided examples to help students grasp abstract ideas, while connecting lessons to real-world applications to keep learning both relevant and enjoyable. I believe every student has unique potential, and my goal is to help them gain confidence in their abilities, overcome challenges, and reach their academic goals.

Fantastic Coding Tutor

Thank you for your patience in guiding our daughter through her Tinkercad assignments. She's building confidence with each session!

Best tutor who helped dissect challenging concepts!

This was the “best experience” my daughter has had with an online tutor. She “100% recommends” him for “any high school tutoring in engineering, software, computer science, and beyond!” Thank you!

Very Good Tutor

Amitoj helped my son with Geometry with a very short notice. He was knowledgeable and patient. My son said he was the best tutor, he had ever worked with. We will be scheduling more lessons.
