Hi, I'm Prasannah! I graduated from the University of Houston with a Bachelor's in Engineering. I have 10-15 years of private tutoring experience, specializing in math and science. I have experience with students of all ages including adults returning to college.

I started tutoring in high school because I loved math and physics, and after class, I would explain the lesson to anyone that needed help. I realized that I have a knack for breaking down difficult concepts and explaining them the way each person learns best. I also realized that people loved learning from me time and again. I love the subjects I teach so I make classes fun, and I work to create a comfortable learning environment for all my students. I help students gain clarity and make sure they have a solid grasp of the basics so they can move on to more advanced topics.

In my experience, many students struggle simply because they haven't been taught in a way that resonates with them. Everyone learns differently, so I help my students understand their personal learning style as well as the given subject. I find that this not only increases their understanding of the subject but also their overall confidence. I can also help students with ADHD develop study and wellness habits that make studying more effective and much less stressful.

My goal is to give students a good foundation in math and science, as well as learning styles and study habits, so they can apply their knowledge confidently and succeed in school.

I generally work with students once or twice a week and help them with homework and test preparation. I teach students through a whole semester/school year so I can be available for help with important assignments and projects. My schedule is flexible and I am easy to reach whenever my students need help. If you're looking for an engaging and effective tutor, please contact me to schedule a lesson.

Approved Subjects

Calculus

Calculus

I am an engineering student and I love Calculus. I tutored my classmates as well as younger students in this subject. I am a math oriented person and I can explain all concepts in a way that is easy to grasp. I can also help students understand when and how to use each concept and the rules and restrictions related to each method of problem-solving. I can guarantee a solid foundation of Calculus which will make it easy to do well in more advanced math classes as well classes like Physics and Mechanics which are based on Calculus.
Chemistry

Chemistry

I have a history of tutoring chemistry in many levels (school and college) and I have good experiences in my own chemistry classes. I can teach all the concepts clearly and make sure students understand it fully so they can solve problems on their own.
Computer Science

Computer Science

I studied Computer Science for all 3 years in High School. I program mostly in Java. Now, I have added to my repertoire MATLAB, VBA, Excel, and Word. I also understand the core concepts behind programming and the steps to take in writing a program in any language.
Elementary Math

Elementary Math

I have been tutoring since I was in high school. I am great at explaining concepts to children in ways they can really understand. My goal is to give them a good foundation in basic math so they can move on successfully to more advanced topics.
Elementary Science

Elementary Science

I have been a private tutor for 10-15 years now. I love to get students interested in science by making the subject fun and interesting. I teach students basic topics in memorable ways so they have a solid foundation for more advanced classes.
Geometry

Geometry

I am an engineer and I use geometry on a daily basis to solve problems. I have a thorough knowledge of all concepts and theorems and I can explain them in easy to understand terms. I can also make sure that each student understands the applications of each concept and the rules and restrictions behind each method of problem-solving. I can guarantee a solid foundation in geometry concepts that can help students succeed in all advanced math classes as most of them use at least some geometry.
Physics

Physics

I have always enjoyed Physics and it is one of the reasons that I decided to pursue a degree in engineering. I have a knack for understanding how Physics works and I can easily explain the concepts to others in simple terms. I teach Physics in a common sense way and can show how real-life observations are the basis for the laws of Physics. I also make it a fun subject to study and less intimidating.
Visual Basic

Visual Basic

I use Visual Basic every day and can easily help students understand the language. I can help create functional sheets for specific tasks, as well as teach the basics of Excel and the easiest ways to incorporate VBA to lighten the workload.

My first A in math! Could not have done it without Prasannah!!!

I am an aspiring civil engineer. Math has been somewhat of a challenge during my short time in college. All other subjects I made great marks but just couldn't bring my score up where it mattered most. After spending two short lessons with Prasannah I was able to take my final with confidence. She not only helped provide the insight necessary to understand and complete equations, Prasannah helped me grasp the reasoning behind each theorem. This is my first 4 hour college math class and also my first semester to achieve straight A's. This would not have been possible without this young lady's tutelage. I am beyond ecstatic-best holiday gift I could ask for!!!

Prompt, knowledgable, friendly and thorough

Worked on Geometey. My son thought she was very thorough and explained things in a way he could understand. She also made suggestions to help him prepare for their next session

Great tutor A++

Prasannah helped my daughter to overcome some problems with basic math concepts and give her a series of good tips on how to approach and solve word problems. Highly reccomended.
