Hi! My name is Radha and I am a senior in high school. I am currently taking Complex Analysis, but I am certified to teach Pre-Algebra, Algebra I, AP Calculus AB & BC, Multivariable Calculus, Linear Algebra and the SAT. I am also a STEM enthusiast and love to host series on programming topics like HTML/CSS, Python, and Java. Outside of this, I am a competitive tennis player, skier, and artist. I'm excited to help you out with your educational pursuits!
