Timothy Williams will be the tutor for the courses. Timothy received his Masters degree in Math from IIT (Indian Institute of Technology, Chennai) in 1986 and his Masters degree in Computer Science from Andhra University, Visakhapatnam in 1990. Before switching over to software development, he was teaching for about 12 years. He was an adjunct professor at California State University at East Bay and has also taught in DeVry University at Fremont (California), Chabot Community College at Hayward (California), and Pondicherry Engineering College (India). Tata McGraw Hill Publishing has sold more than 120,000 copies of the book on Computer Science authored by him.

The courses are designed to present Math as an application of common sense. Most of the concepts will be developed from first principles.

These courses are NOT meant for those struggling with Math. Students who are reasonably proficient in Math will be equipped with all the skills necessary to excel in their academics and beyond. The courses are not tied to any particular curriculum. They complement and supplement what is learned in school.

The course focuses on
  • Presenting Math as a tool to solve real-life problems
  • Laying a strong foundation in Math
  • Sharpening the analytical and reasoning skills
  • Preparing students to thrive in the most challenging environment with confidence and comfort
  • Course Name: SAT (Math only)
