About Ravi

I live in the Chicago suburbs. I tutor mostly in three areas: math (algebra, trig, calculus, statistics), science (chemistry, physics), and standardized tests (ACT, SAT, GRE, GMAT, USMLE). Sometimes I tutor writing and public speaking. I have three graduate degrees including a PhD from Johns Hopkins. I'm calm and funny and put people at ease with subjects they have anxiety about. American accent. I did a TED talk in 2021 ("Let Out Your Tears...At Work") so you can watch/hear me.

He provided notes to my son which seems like it could be a helpful reference. He is responsive and seems overall friendly. But he did make an elitist comment to my son which I do not appreciate. We hired a tutor for help and support, not to criticize my son's math abilities.
