Arvind
UoMichigan PhD for Math, ACTs and Science Tutoring
Hi I am an Electrical Engineer with a PhD from University of Michigan, Ann Arbor with an excellent academic record (4.0 GPA in undergrad and grad school). I love math, physics and programming. I have taught undergrad courses in discrete math and graduate level courses in probability and statistics. I am a patient and understanding tutor with a strong grasp of the fundamentals that allows me to adjust my teaching level and explanations to the ability of the students. Success breeds success...

My daughter stated that Arvind was very thorough in explaining the work to her. He was patient and pleasant during the entire session. He recommended reserving a study room at the library, something that never came to mind for us.
Anne B. from Hoffman Estates, IL
He condensed my whole quarter of statistics in two sessions. He left with me having a great understanding of all the material. He was patient and very intelligent. I works definitely call him if I needed help again.

My daughter was having trouble with an AP Physics class. I initiated contact with Arvind through the WyzAnt web site and he called me back right away. During the initial call Arvind assured me that he could break the subject down and explain it in ways that my daughter could understand. His approach is very hands on to the point where he asks what lesson they are currently on so that he can come prepared with a concrete lesson plan geared to attack that lesson. Since Arvid has been on the job, my daughter's struggles have come to an end. Her grades have gone from a high C to A level, but the most noticeable difference is in her confidence which is night and day. We have used tutors before but I assure you that none of them were as thorough and professional as Arvind. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a tutor.

Arvind has been tutoring my daughter. First, they needed to catch up with concepts, which took patients and perseverance. After setting a good base, they have now moved forward by applying new and old concepts as they go. Thanks, Arvind.
Indu B. from Elk Grove Village, IL
My son pretty much hates math, and as the syllabus got harder, he had more trouble keeping up with it. Arvind has been very helpful by keeping him on task with the math work, taking him through the need to know things, and helping him practice solving various problems to bring his grades back up. Arvind has also been a huge help with the ACT. In their practice sessions, my son's ACT scores have increased between 6 to 8 points and he feels more confident about taking his first ACT pretty soon.
Barbara S. from Macomb, IL
Arvind covered reading for the ACT with my daughter. He covered grammar, punctuation, and the common errors that test takers make. My daughter's score improved the most in this area, and she received the composite score she needed!
Aida M. from Bartlett, IL
Arvind helped my daughter in algebra. Arvind is a very knowledgeable tutor who was very prepared for his sessions and even gave additional homework problems to supplement the lesson. He was easy to reach and communicated well with me after each session to provide updates on the progress.
Shirley T. from Schaumburg, IL
Arvind has really helped my daughter improve her skills in her AP Calculus BC class. He is able to teach her in different and simpler ways that she can understand and learn from. His way of teaching is very informative but also precise enough where she can benefit from it even in a small amount of time.
Marc P. from Saint Charles, IL
Arvind did a good job with my son during their first tutoring session. Arvind was professional and able to identify and explain the areas my son needs to focus on.
Edith S. from Schaumburg, IL
Arvind came on short notice to help my son with AP Stats. Even though it was on short notice, he got his points across in a way my son could understand. Very professional, as well.
Anwar A. from Barrington, IL
Mr. Arvind is very knowledgeable. He knows the subject well and knows how to teach it to others in a straightforward and interesting style. He is very patient and listens well and explains the material thoroughly. He is a great math tutor to have if you want to get a high grade!
Catherine C. from Barrington, IL
Arvind genuinely cares about his students' understanding of the subject matter. He takes the extra step of bringing material that will enhance each lesson. Every tutor should set such a high standard.
Varun K. from Schaumburg, IL
I contacted Arvind for help on python language for my AI course. I was very impressed for his thorough knowledge of the subject matter on which my assignment was based. He knows how to efficiently code in python, which only a very experienced programmer can do. My assignment involved Hidden Markov Model for sketch recognition and lot of statistics to solve the model. He taught me how to efficiently do statistical calculations with python. I will highly recommend Arvind. You won't find a better tutor.
Nipul P. from West Chicago, IL
My son is preparing for ACT on his own since last three months. On the very first meeting, Arvind found some key points in which my son is weak. He has trouble for managing time in Math and also spending too much time on questions that should have been answered quickly. Arvind went over ACT Math strategies and how to manage time effectively.
Katharine H. from Lisle, IL
He was able to help me with my Statistics/ programming assignment very quickly and effectively. We had a tutoring session on the day I asked for help and he solved a complicated machine learning problem that I was struggling with. I would highly recommend working with Arvind!
Paul D. from Springfield, IL
Engaged him to tutor my son in Calculus. Very sincere tutor. Makes sure that the student understands the subject. Works to your schedule and flexible. I am sure this semester my son will do very well in Calculus due to Arvind tutoring him.
Lily R. from Streamwood, IL
Arvind is a wonderful teacher. He explains things in a way my daughter can understand. He's very easy to reach by phone.
Judy S. from Elgin, IL
Arvind is tutoring my son in Physics. My son states Arvind explains in a way that he is able to understand, and is extremely patient, especially when he has questions.
Min S. from Palatine, IL
My 7th grade child had his first lesson with Arvind on a Python project. He is knowledgeable about the language. He has the ability of breaking down a complex project into logical pieces and teaching the student to tackle them piece by piece. He effectively challenged the student to think and come up with their own solutions. Overall his tutoring is right on the mark and is very result oriented.
Dan R. from Saint Charles, IL
Arvind is working with my son on ACT science prep. My son said that after just one lesson he has already learned several tips that he thinks will help him improve his score.
