Hi I'm Tejus!

I am an incoming PhD candidate and I graduated cum laude with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science while also being on the Pre-med track at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. My goal is to help students grasp concepts they might struggle with particularly within the fields of Math and Science. I use lesson plans in which I usually introduce the topic in a unique way to target the specific student. After which I proceed to not only go through step-by-step examples, but also provide plenty of practice problems for the student to improve their abilities on their own.

I have roughly 4+ years of tutoring experience. During college I tutored both middle and high school students in the Troy Public School System. Before then, I also tutored students in Geometry and introductory level Biology as a senior in highschool. Along with that, as a part of my volunteer organization, I also tutored several students in lower income areas of the greater Albany region. These sessions ranged from traditional 1-on-1 meetings to classroom style discussions. My focus is primarily on ACT, SAT, and GRE preparation while also mentoring younger students in Biology, Geometry, and Algebra.

When meeting a student for the first time, my objective is to gain an understanding of their abilities. Based on the results of their baseline assessment, I like to craft individualized plans to help them improve their weak spots and become better test takers. I like to work on practice problems with students to make sure they are understanding the appropriate thought process for each type of problem. From there I try to reinforce the material by giving them problems to work on at home. Finally periodic assessments will be provided in order to measure the progress that is being made.

Feel free to contact me with any additional questions or to schedule a lesson!

Thank you!
