Bio

Math has been my favorite subject since I was a kid. I used to solve problems in my head just for fun. But calculus is what truly hooked me. Suddenly math wasn't about finding x anymore. It was about describing how the real world works.

Math has been my favorite subject since I was a kid. I used to solve problems in my head just for fun. But calculus is what truly hooked me. Suddenly math wasn't about finding x anymore. It was about describing how the real world works.

I've been teaching math for 17+ years, from pre-algebra through calculus. In India, I coached students for the IIT entrance exams, among the most competitive exams in the country. Since moving to the US, I've coached hundreds of students for the AMC, Math Kangaroo, and SAT.

I mostly work with middle and high school students. I love their questions, even the unexpected ones, because they show me exactly where a student is stuck.

My approach is simple. I teach the logic behind the math, not just steps to memorize. Once a student understands the "why," the fear goes away, and the results follow.

Subjects I teach: Algebra 1 and 2, pre-algebra, geometry, trigonometry, pre-calculus, calculus, probability, permutations and combinations, and complex numbers.

If your child is afraid of math, or just wants to get really good at it, I'd love to help.

Approved Subjects

ACT Math

ACT Math

I hold a bachelor's degree in computer science and have been teaching math for over 17 years, with extensive experience in ACT Math preparation. I help students master the tested topics, from pre-algebra and algebra to geometry and trigonometry, while building the speed the 60-questions-in-60-minutes format demands. My guided questioning approach trains students to work efficiently and avoid common traps. I have helped many students raise their ACT Math scores with focused, practical preparation.
Algebra 1

Algebra 1

I have been teaching math for over 17 years, including many years focused on Algebra 1. I help students master linear equations, systems of equations, quadratics, and functions by breaking each concept into clear, manageable steps. My approach uses guided questioning so students discover solutions themselves instead of just memorizing procedures. I have worked with students at every level, from those catching up to those preparing for advanced math competitions.
Algebra 2

Algebra 2

I have been teaching math for over 17 years, with deep experience in Algebra 2 topics like polynomials, rational functions, exponentials, logarithms, and sequences. I help students connect these concepts to what they learned in Algebra 1 so nothing feels disconnected. My teaching uses guided questioning, so students build real understanding instead of memorizing steps. I have prepared students for exams, advanced courses, and math competitions alike.
AMC (Competition math)

AMC (Competition math)

I have over five years of experience tutoring students for AMC math competitions, including AMC 8, 10, and 12. My expertise lies in guiding students through problem-solving strategies, advanced algebra, geometry, and number theory, tailored to the rigorous demands of these contests. I have a proven track record of helping students improve their scores and build confidence in competitive math environments.
Calculus

Calculus

I have been teaching calculus for over 17 years, covering limits, derivatives, integrals, and their applications. I focus on building strong conceptual understanding first, so the techniques make sense instead of feeling like a list of rules. My guided questioning approach helps students tackle challenging problems with confidence. I have prepared many students for AP Calculus AB and BC exams.
Common Core

Common Core

I hold a bachelor's degree in computer science and have been teaching math for over 17 years, aligned with Common Core standards across elementary, middle, and high school levels. I help students with exactly what they are learning in school, from arithmetic and fractions to algebra, functions, and geometry. My guided questioning approach builds deep understanding instead of memorized steps, so students perform better on school tests. I have worked with students at every level, from those catching up to those moving ahead.
Geometry

Geometry

I hold a bachelor's degree in computer science and have been teaching math for over 17 years, with deep experience in geometry. I help students master proofs, triangles, circles, area and volume, and coordinate geometry by building each concept visually and step by step. My guided questioning approach turns tricky proofs into logical chains students can construct themselves. I have prepared students for exams, advanced courses, and math competitions alike.
High School Placement Test

High School Placement Test

I hold a bachelor's degree in computer science and have been teaching math for over 17 years, with experience preparing students for the High School Placement Test. I help 8th graders master the HSPT math sections, from arithmetic and pre-algebra to algebra and geometry, with focused practice on the test's question styles. My guided questioning approach builds both speed and accuracy for test day. I have helped many students earn strong scores and gain admission to their chosen high schools.
Prealgebra

Prealgebra

I hold a bachelor's degree in computer science and have been teaching math for over 17 years, with extensive experience in pre-algebra. I help students master fractions, decimals, integers, ratios, and basic equations with clear step-by-step explanations. My guided questioning approach builds the confidence and number sense students need before Algebra 1. I have worked with students at every level, from those catching up to those moving ahead.
Precalculus

Precalculus

I hold a bachelor's degree in computer science and have been teaching precalculus for over 17 years, covering functions, trigonometry, vectors, conic sections, and advanced algebra. I make sure students truly understand each concept before moving on, so they enter calculus with confidence. My guided questioning approach turns tricky topics into ideas students can work through on their own. I have helped many students strengthen their foundation for AP Calculus.
SAT Math

SAT Math

I hold a bachelor's degree in computer science and have been teaching math for over 17 years, with extensive experience in SAT Math preparation. I help students master the tested topics, from algebra and advanced math to data analysis, while building the time management and guessing strategy the test rewards. My guided questioning approach trains students to spot patterns and avoid common traps. I have helped many students raise their scores with focused, efficient preparation.
Trigonometry

Trigonometry

I hold a bachelor's degree in computer science and have been teaching math for over 17 years, with extensive experience in trigonometry. I help students master the unit circle, trig identities, graphs, and triangle solving by building each idea step by step. My guided questioning approach turns memorization-heavy topics into concepts students truly understand. I have prepared students for exams, precalculus, and math competitions alike.
