    Ace astronomy: get custom tutoring w/ a Princeton physics alumna + Caltech PhD candidate

    Experienced tutor of over five years, having taught students of a variety of backgrounds and skill levels ranging from tutoring middle and high school students in algebra to college undergraduates in solid-state physics. As an aspiring astronomer throughout my school years, I have taken high school and college-level astronomy classes and earned honorable mention at the International Olympiad of Astronomy and Astrophysics. I am a Princeton graduate with a degree in physics and a current Caltech PhD candidate in Materials Science. I aced the SAT and ACT in high school, got a near-perfect score on the GRE, and have achieved high grades across various challenging high school and college classes. My subject-matter expertise and wide range of tutoring experience, including with international students, illustrates my ability to adapt to different student needs. I look forward to working with you to help you achieve your educational goals.

    I am a Princeton graduate with a degree in physics and a Caltech PhD candidate in materials science who conducts research on solar energy-related devices. I have several years of tutoring experience working with students of a variety of ages, skills, and backgrounds, in subjects ranging from algebra to Python to solid-state physics as both a volunteer and a paid tutor. I have also taught international students, so I can work with students for whom English is a second language. I speak Hindi and French in addition to English. I look forward to working with you!

    Sara’s tutoring has been an enormous gift for our high school senior. He was struggling with understanding his physics teacher, and Sara was able to keep him caught up in just 30-45 minutes a week! She also helped with calculus when he was struggling and his grades went from a 33 on a test to a 97! Sara is always professional, encouraging, and kind. I hope our son will be able to work with her as he continues through his astrophysics major in college. Thank you Sara! We are so grateful for your wisdom and the skill with which you share it!

    Sara is a knowledgeable, kind, and patient tutor. She assisted our daughter in grade nine math honors (Pasadena Unified) and ideally will be helping her in her future classes. Sara’s rates are also super reasonable and is vey cognizant and not wasteful of hers or students time. Most importantly our daughter is more confident in the material and math overall which has led to not only significantly higher grades but lower anxiety and more confidence in the classroom setting.
