About

READ FULLY!
Hey there! I am Kishan, a rising senior. I enjoy math a lot, particularly calculus - which I developed an interest for in 10th grade. I am currently halfway through teaching myself Calc III and a certified calculus tutor in Schoolhouse. This series is a relatively fast paced course that will cover the entirety of the AP Calculus AB/BC curriculum. We will start from the ground up, introducing ourselves to limits, derivatives, integrals, etc...So, if you are here to learn BC, consider skipping until UNIT 5. Hope you enjoy me as your tutor. I am going to add sessions as we go through the series.

Hey! I am Kishan (Ki - Shun), a rising senior from Arizona. I love practicing and teaching dancing, learning flips, math, and planes. My favorite field of math is calculus, and I have self-taught myself Calc 1, 2, & 3. Will be joining Schoolhouse tutoring next summer. Will probably go to ASU (accepted!) to get my aerospace engineering and business administration degree.

Schedule

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

READ FULLY!!!

BC students are allowed to skip any amount of sessions until Unit 5. AB students are expected to attend all sessions, but are allowed (not required) to skip any/all sessions after Unit 8. Anyone with more than 3 unexcused absences may be removed from the series when their respective content is being covered. Please don't miss more than 4 sessions when the AB and BC curriculums are being covered for respective AB & BC students. Please submit an excused absence and message the reason for your absence - if you are absent when your content is being covered - to me through the private chat.
