Patient and Encouraging K-6 Math Tutor

Pranay M.

Hello, my name is Pranay! I enjoy helping students improve their math skills and become more confident when solving problems. I am currently a student at the University of Cincinnati, majoring in Information Technology with a minor in Computer Science. I graduated from high school in May 2024 and have made the Dean’s List for two years of college. I have also earned Coursera certificates in Data Analytics Using Generative AI, SQL Joins, and Data Analytics Using Excel and Pivot Tables. My college experience has helped me improve my problem-solving, communication, and analytical skills.
I have been volunteering as a math tutor with the Bearcat Buddies program through the University of Cincinnati since September 2026, where I work with students in grades 3 through 6. I enjoy helping students with math problems they find difficult and giving them opportunities to practice. When I tutor, I first find out what the student already understands and what they need help with. I explain the problem step by step, work through examples with them, and give them additional practice. I am patient and encouraging so students feel comfortable asking questions and learning from their mistakes.
On Wyzant, I would like to tutor math for students in kindergarten through sixth grade. I can help with addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fractions, decimals, basic geometry, and word problems. My goal is to help students understand how to solve problems instead of simply giving them the answers. I am available for online and in-person tutoring. For in-person tutoring, I am available in Mason and West Chester, Ohio, and can meet at a student’s home, a public library, or another convenient location.
