Princeton Grad | Expert Tutor in Physics, Math, SAT/ACT, AP

Akash S.

Hi, I'm Akash! I hold a bachelor's degree from Princeton University, where I majored in Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) with a minor in Engineering Physics. I’ll be continuing at Princeton next year to complete a master’s degree in ECE. I have a strong background in math and physics—ranging from foundational concepts to advanced and competition-level topics—and I genuinely enjoy helping students build both skills and confidence. Throughout my academic journey, I’ve served as a teaching assistant for Princeton courses and volunteered as a tutor with Learn To Be, a nonprofit that offers free, one-on-one online tutoring to underserved K–12 students. Having been a high school student fairly recently, I’m familiar with the content and coursework of many AP subjects as well as SAT, ACT, and PSAT prep. I was named a National Merit Scholar and an AP Scholar with Distinction.

My teaching style is clear, patient, and tailored to each student. I focus on building strong fundamentals, helping students break down complex problems, and encouraging active engagement through questions and practice. Whether I'm working one-on-one or in small groups, I strive to make learning effective, supportive, and approachable. I’ve worked with students from a wide range of backgrounds and always adapt my approach to meet their specific goals—whether that’s preparing for a major exam, boosting classroom performance, or pursuing enrichment beyond the standard curriculum. Learning should be an empowering experience, and I’m excited to help students reach their full potential.
