Hi, I’m Venkat
I am the founder and CEO of LEARN to EXCEL and I have been teaching Math and Physics for high school students for over 10 years. I love to teach and I am sure I can get you to enjoy what you are learning so it stays with you for the rest of your life.
I have two kids in high school and I understand how stressful it can be to meet the high expectations of parents and teachers. I can help you with concepts and problem-solving skills you need to achieve your best.
I immigrated from India where I completed my undergraduate studies at the prestigious Indian Institute of Technology. I work as a Marketing Manager in Silicon Valley.
