About StemFum Tutoring

Hello, I'm Mugdha, founder and tutor at STEMFun Tutoring. Having worked as an engineer in the tech industry for several years, I have a strong background in math and computer science. Aside from STEMFunTutoring, I have several years of teaching experience, originally as an after-school tutor with the San Jose School District, and more recently, as a mathematics tutor in Willow Glen School District. I also work as a computer science instructor through the Microsoft TEALS initiative. As a tutor, I believe it is important to  emphasize conceptual understanding (rather than just mechanics and calculations) because I believe that a thorough understanding of mathematical fundamentals is critical to future academic success.

Hi! I'm Ishani. I am a Ph.D. student at Stanford University's Institute for Computational and Mathematical Engineering. Apart from STEMFun Tutoring, I have experience as a teaching assistant for university-level mathematics and data science courses at Caltech, where I received the Thomas A. Tisch teaching prize. I also have many years of high school tutoring experience in the Pasadena School District. I'm passionate about learning and teaching mathematics and helping students appreciate all the interesting ways we can apply mathematics in our daily lives.
