Hi! I’m Gaurav! I am an Academic Coach for Staying Ahead of the Game LLC. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration with a minor in Accounting from University of Houston, Downton. I am certified to teach Early Childhood to 6th grade. I have been teaching middle school math, science and social studies for three years. I love the opportunity to work with students one-on-one, as it allows me to create a personalized plan that can help them achieve their goals. Through this process I can gain insight into their thinking and problem-solving skills, which helps me tailor my approach to their specific needs. I hope to convey to my students that it’s okay to fail sometimes, as long as we learn from our mistakes and keep trying. It’s important to develop resilience and perseverance, and to never give up on our goals!
