Sarayu

Certified Tutor

I am a rising sophomore at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Currently, I am a Political Science major and a Data Science minor. Before working with Varsity Tutors, I have worked as a volunteer math tutor virtually for around 3 years at Peer2Peer and have since had a strong passion for helping students learn and enjoy the subjects they encounter. I have also assisted with SAT prep during the summer prior to my senior year as a part of a fundraiser for an pre-health organization I was a part of. Being a part of someone's learning process and helping them achieve their goals is one of the most rewarding experiences I took part in. The feeling when a particular concept clicks with a student is incomparable to anything else. It's a hard earned testament to the work of the student, and I want to help in the achievement of that goal. I am a tutor who values compassionate practice- making sure the student feels comfortable around me and helping them gain the confidence to approach harder topics. The thing that I stress the most is that everyone, regardless of skill level, makes mistakes, and that isn't a bad thing. Mistakes help us grow instead of stagnate. I hope to help every student I teach remember that.
