Hello! I am Nagu, and I have a strong foundation in math and physics. I am passionate about helping students excel in these subjects. After graduating at the top of my high school class, I earned a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering from the prestigious Indian Institute of Technology. I later completed my Master’s degree at the University of Maryland, College Park, and obtained an MBA from an Ivy League school. With 25 years of experience as an engineer and project manager in design and product development, I recently worked as a technology advisor, assisting engineering teams. I have also mentored younger colleagues to complete their tasks effectively.

As the son of a school principal, I have always been driven by a passion for teaching and supporting students academically. Growing up, I enjoyed helping my siblings with their schoolwork. During my undergraduate studies, I taught math topics to students preparing for competitive exams, boosting their self-confidence and helping them excel. I also served as a teaching assistant for 1.5 years, where I tutored undergraduate students in engineering courses, receiving high praise for my efforts. Additionally, I regularly tutor my middle school son in math and science, assisting him with homework and projects.

As an effective tutor, I identify students’ areas of difficulty and customize my approach to meet their specific needs. My goal is to help them complete assignments and advance academically. I am passionate about helping students understand critical concepts, build confidence, and realize their full potential. I actively seek feedback from both students and parents to adjust my tutoring strategies, ensuring a successful engagement. Through timely assistance and clear explanations, I ensure the satisfaction of students.

If you are a high school student seeking support in math and physics, or if you need compassionate guidance as you navigate your coursework, please feel free to contact me. I would be happy to help you excel in your academics.

Very knowledgeable and patient Tutor

Nagu is very knowledgeable and good at explaining concepts. I highly recommend him. He is excellent to work with.

Maria, 8 lessons with Nagu

Master of the subject.

Mr. Nagu came to our session thoroughly prepared with the homework problems I had sent in advance. His depth of knowledge was immediately evident, and he has a rare ability to break down complex physics concepts into clear, simple explanations—true mastery of the subject. I plan to continue working with Mr. Nagu throughout my upcoming physics semesters, and I highly recommend him to any student seeking a top-tier tutor.

Robert, 1 lesson with Nagu

A good match for my high school son

My son enjoyed his physics lesson with Mr. Nagu Y. He said the teacher explained everything in a clear and easy to follow manner. I highly recommend this instructor.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor.

Nayu is a great tutor, he has helped me understand many concepts and problems in my Calculus I class. He explains things very well and encourages me to ask questions so that I can understand the problems and succeed in the course. I appreciate Nayu's help and I look forward to continuing to work with him.

Charlotte, 6 lessons with Nagu

Clear and patient tutor

I would highly recommend Mr. Nagu. He helped me understand mechanical engineering concepts: electrical systems (circuits) and linear algebra (REF and RREF). He also helped me solve problems by explaining in a concise, organized way and helped me figure out my own mistakes. He is patient and clear in his explanations. By the way, thanks to his help, I got A’s in my electrical systems assignments and test.

T., 17 lessons with Nagu

Great and knowledgeable

Sure! Here’s a simpler version: --- Nagu was an amazing help with my physics. He explained complex concepts clearly and made them much easier to understand. I felt much more confident after our session. He broke things down while still explaining the bigger picture. I highly recommend.
