About the Tutor

Hi there! My name is Shitij and I'm a junior in High School. I have completed AP Calculus AB and BC as well as AP Statistics with a score of 5 in both. I have tutored, and am currently tutoring students in Algebra and PreAlgebra at my local non-profit for 2 years. I was also one of the earlier tutors here at schoolhouse.world. I have a youtube channel as well(https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCinwpgQ9163mWYpAcL0jE0A) where I cover topics ranging from Calculus to Algebra. I also cover topics in Competitive Math Contests like the AMC and AIME as well as Computer Science Contests like USACO. I look forward to teaching you!
