Hello! I'm Jaya. I graduated from UC San Diego with a degree in Economics, and then received my MBA from Columbia University, where I graduated with High Honors. My career has spanned a few industries, from tech to entertainment to consulting. Throughout it all, I've consistently found opportunities to turn my passion for learning into helping students of all ages learn and grow as well. I find it especially rewarding when a student who is lacking confidence in school turns it around and realizes how capable they really are, and gets excited about learning in the process. Whatever your reason is for being interested in tutoring, I look forward to discussing your personal goals with you and working together to achieve them!
Some of my tutoring experience includes:
- a home-schooled 5th grader who was struggling to write, but within a few months won a "best speech" award (I started tutoring his siblings as well)
- a student with ADHD struggling across all subjects in 6th, then 7th, grade - with daily tutoring, his grades improved, and he became more confident
- numerous college students at USC who I helped with essay writing (in-person and online), one of whom received praise on his personal statements when applying to grad school and got in
...and more.
I specialize in tutoring elementary and middle school students across all subjects, and English/Language Arts at the high school and college level. Right now I am only tutoring virtually, but in the near future I would also be open to meeting students in-person who are local to New York City.
I am new to Wyzant, which I was recently referred to as a great platform for tutors like myself. That's why I'm offering a discounted rate until I can build a presence here! Thank you for reaching out, and I'm excited to work together!
