Biography

I'm a rising junior at the College of Wooster and intend to double major in Mathematics and Economics with a minor in Computer Science. In my three semesters at the college, I was TA for the Linear Algebra class for two of them (Spring and Fall 2019). This job involved office hours to help students understand core concepts, study for exams, clear and doubts, and overall answer any questions they had. I was supposed to continue with this job in Spring 2020 but was unable to since I decided to study abroad in Sweden for the semester.
Before this, I was a tutor (2017-2018) at my high school, where I tutored students at after-school study halls in AP Macroeconomics, AP Microeconomics, Mathematics up to AP Calculus BC, and Hindi up to Level 3.

I have always enjoyed helping students and think Numerade would be a great platform for me to continue doing so from home.
