Hi, I'm Sai!

- I've tutored for 9 years - SAT Math & Reading/Writing, Computer Science.
- Many of my students ended up scoring 1500+, and are now at top schools like Stanford & UC-Berkeley.
- I will respond within minutes.

I'm a software engineer who's built systems at Amazon and Capital One, and studied Computer Science at the University of Maryland. I also have a background in machine learning and astrophysics research.

SAT - My methodology starts by recognizing the handful of patterns the test repeats over and over. I teach the fast, clean route to each answer. Not the long textbook way. This builds real confidence, so my students walk in calm instead of cramming.

Computer Science - Python, Java, Data Structures, AP Computer Science, college coursework. As a working engineer, I teach the material the way it's actually used, not just how to pass a test.

My approach is patient and conversational. I don't lecture at you - I figure out how you think first, then explain concepts in whatever way finally lands. If one explanation doesn't work, we find the one that does. My grandfather was a tenured economics professor and one of the best educators on the planet, he is where I get my love for teaching.

Highly recommended math expert

Sai is very knowledgeable, thorough, and patient going over the word problems and algebra concepts with my son. He helped him not only understand the lessons but also appreciate the concepts. My son looks forward to a lot more future lessons with Sai.

great teacher!

Sai is a great tutor I never felt confident in myself when it came to math but the way he explains things is so easy to understand, Has plenty of patience, and doesn’t show you the long way to get the answer he just shows you the quick way.

Michael, 4 lessons with Sai

Sai is the best!

I can’t say enough about Sai and actually I really don’t want to share him with too many other people because Sai Is helping me with my career path, learning the current technologies but also with my creativity. Sai gets people. He is open minded and is genuinely interested in what the student or person thinks feels and needs. What more can u ask for, right?

knowledgable, patient and approachable tutor

Learning with Sai was great! He is not a teacher who goes “ DO THIS,” or “DO THAT!” He explains everything carefully in a way that I understand. If I didn’t, he would explain it in an easier way. He is also a very good conversation starter which made the session even more interesting for me. Currently we are working on Geometry and I will be taking more classes. Overall, my experience was amazing! Thank you :)
