Hey there and welcome to my profile! My name is Ashwin and I graduated from The University of Texas at Austin with my Bachelor of Arts in Government and minor in Business and have worked in a variety of industries since then from financial services, sales operations, and project management. I also have my Master of Science in Management Information Systems from The University of Houston and decided to pick up tutoring on the side to help students achieve their academic goals and be a small part of their success.

I have experience tutoring high school students virtually in Algebra, Geometry, and essay writing and always focus on making sure the right questions are being asked and that there's a comfortable level of understanding especially for the student. Being in a work environment and interacting with customers, I've always made sure to be patient, composed, and communicate in a way that's most appropriate for their needs and this is the same approach that I've had as a tutor. I also encourage students to try working on concepts independently and repeatedly once they're taught something new as a way to boost their confidence. This is the best way for the student and myself to ensure that any concept they might've been struggling with is more clear and they feel like the help they received drastically improved their overall performance.

Please feel free to reach out to me and I look forward to working together with you!

Approved Subjects

Algebra 1

Algebra 1

Math requires a logical understanding and patience to absorb the information. I will patiently work together with each student to make sure that they follow each step necessary to get the correct answer.
Elementary Math

Elementary Math

I believe asking the student questions firsthand to gauge their understanding of a concept is key. Going through every step of a math problem will help boost their confidence and knowledge in key areas.
English

English

I will always take the time to help a student brainstorm a topic for their essay or paper they're writing and also give them ideas in helping their essay or paper flow well. The key is understanding the main idea and what their stance is, counter arguments possibly, and what they believe the theme or conclusion needs to be. That's the formula that I think will help students improve their writing skills and feel more open to express their ideas and creativity.
Prealgebra

Prealgebra

I believe the key to mastering Pre-Algebra is understanding each of the steps that need to be followed and why they're supposed to be followed. Once I show a student all the required steps to find the answer to a question, I'll also encourage them to work on the questions independently as a work to boost their understanding/confidence in the subject.
Spelling

Spelling

Spelling is the foundation for being detail oriented, especially when communicating and writing. I want to work with each student to where they sound out the names of key words, while also helping them recall why certain letters might appear in certain ways. It's also important to pronounce how words are spelled out.

Passionate teacher with great writing ideas

According to my 10 year son, “Mr Ashwin is an amazing teacher who gives me great ideas to write. He is fun and is very good at explaining in details. My hour class goes by quickly and I write many stories during our class!” It’s been a month we had class with Mr. Ashwin and it’s been a great supplement to ISEE & private school application process. Not only he provides prompt to write for ISEE practice, he sends us motivational Ted Talk, newspaper writings..etc Thank you so much for your support in advancing my son in writing.

Great Tutor

Ashwin accepts feedback and adjusts to the situation from lesson to lesson. I find this to be the most positive trait for good tutoring. My 9 year old is learning and absorbing the information and keeps moving forward with his math!

The BEST OF THE BEST

hands down one of the best tutor I've ever worked with! In in college and he helped me every step of the way and was very patient with me. 10/10 HIGHLY RECOMEND

Matthew , 1 lesson with Ashwin

Highly Satisfied!

Ashwin was one of the best tutors I've ever used. He's extremely positive, encouraging, easy to communicate with and patient. He took the time to explain each step to me and it's importance. He would stop during our session to make sure that I fully understood each concept and the terms. I didn't feel rushed or over loaded with information; he always paused to make sure I could grasp the material before moving on to the next problem. I look forward to working with him in the future and highly recommend him.
