"Greetings, I am Vivek. I am an alumnus of the University of Virginia (UVA), where I obtained my undergraduate degree in Biology. Following my acceptance to Columbia University's Dental School, I embarked on a journey to mentor and tutor dental students through their application processes. I am particularly focused on guiding prospective dental students with their applications and offering tutoring for the Dental Admission Test (DAT), for which I achieved a score in the 99th percentile.

During my collegiate experience, I was fortunate to receive guidance from student leaders who provided supplementary materials and addressed challenging academic queries. Inspired by this, I have dedicated myself to tutoring across a diverse range of subjects. I bring forth a wealth of experience in one-on-one tutoring and group instruction, consistently striving to facilitate students in achieving their academic aspirations.

My educational background encompasses extensive mathematical coursework, including Advanced Placement (AP) Calculus during high school. I have been tutoring in Prealgebra, Algebra 1, and Algebra 2 for several years. My proficiency shines in the realm of scientific disciplines, with a focus on General Chemistry and Organic Chemistry.

I firmly believe in the pedagogical power of practice, encouraging students to learn from their mistakes. I promote an environment where students are free to pose questions and critique my teaching methodology. I, too, am committed to continuous improvement to tailor my approach to the unique needs of each individual student. Tutoring is an evolving field, rich with opportunities for adaptation and refinement.

I maintain flexible availability, with a preference for online tutoring via Zoom or Google Meets. I place a strong emphasis on the integration of technology into the tutoring process. For communication and inquiries, I can be reached via text or email throughout the day. I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to work with you and support your academic journey!" less...
