Google review of Urbana Math Tutor (In-person and Virtual) by Lee Summers★★★★★ "Mr. Polisetty is a great tutor! My son was failing Algebra in the beginning of the quarter.

I truly recommend him."

Google review of Urbana Math Tutor by Srinivas Polisetty★★★★★ "Posting this review on behalf of Dana Walker... My 9th grader has always been strong in math. That all changed when the pandemic hit and virtual learning became the norm. Two hours a week of Honors Algebra 2 instruction just wasn't cutting it for him. A friend found Srinivas for me by word of mouth. We called Srinivas with trepidation as we had worked with a national chain where the local owner told my son how behind he was. Rather than encouraging, they tore him down. After my first phone conversation with Srinivas I felt we were in good hands. He held a trial class with my son before sharing his plan with me. His number one priority was to build my son's confidence back up. Srinivas said when he felt confident the work would be easier. It took two sessions and I saw the boost in his confidence when it came to math. My son finds it so easy to work with Srinivas (he never complains). We are so happy with Srinivas' approach and teaching that he is now working with our son to prep for the Math SAT this fall. We HIGHLY recommend Srinivas especially if your child's confidence with math is on the line! --- A review by Dana Walker"

Srinivas made it possible, within weeks to take our daughter from doubting herself and just about hating math to actually having real interest in the subject. From total confusion to understanding. If your child does not grasps the math problem one way then with ease Srinivas will explain it in a different way or another way. Srinivas can explain the concept in practical ways so the child start seeing the reason for it and develop interest. Srinivas is accommodating to our hectic schedule. He is very understanding and easy to work with. We like the in-person classes after having so much time spend behind the screen. Just wish we had found him earlier! Very happy."

He was patient, explained the concept well, incorporated skills currently being utilized in the classroom, accomodated our challenging schedule and worked with us to rearrange as needed. I highly recommend Srinivas to any student who needs help with their math skills and would definitely use him again without hesitation! Thank you so much for all of your help with our son and helping him get his confidence back!"

Google review of Urbana Math Tutor (now through Zoom/Google Meet/Skype) by becca clark★★★★★ "Srinivas Polisetty, or Mr. Sri as we call him in our house, has done wonders for my son’s confidence in math. After his first session he was jumping around the house exclaiming “I learned math!”. He’s a shy 8th grade boy, this is a big deal. That confidence has kept up and continued both at home and in the classroom, and we could not be happier. I am so glad we found Mr. Sri!"

Google review of Urbana Math Tutor (now through Zoom/Google Meet/Skype) by Radhika Kondabathini★★★★★ "Srinivas has taught math classes, useful for MathCounts competition for my daughter going to 5th grade. He taught her advanced topics like Probability, Permutations and Combinations that they will see in MathCounts competetions and my kid was understanding these complex topics and following them. He is excellent in his subject, understands kids well, and answers their questions with examples. I recommend everyone to have Srinivas teach their kids, if he has availability, as kids will always have something to learn and benefit from his classes, whether it is Math, Physics or Chemistry. I am glad that we came across a good, honest & humble teacher like you. Thank you Srinivas!"

Google review of Urbana Math Tutor (now through Zoom/Google Meet/Skype) by Poonam Tewary★★★★★ "If ever there was a teacher who thinks outside of the proverbial box it is Srinivas Polisetty. He is exceptionally creative in his teaching approach setting high standards for students and motivating them to, not only meet, but to exceed those standards. He has been instrumental in teaching different aspects of advanced mathematics concepts to my son and made it a fun learning experience. He makes himself available to students before and after school for extra help, and has always been quick to respond to via phone or email.I highly recommend him for any level of math tutoring especially SAT prep."

Google review of Urbana Math Tutor (now through Zoom/Google Meet/Skype) by Vijay Vashishat★★★★★ "Dr. Srinivas is an excellent teacher and his personal touch with math has helped our oldest child excel in Math SAT and she just finished her first year at UMD. Our twins are currently taking math classes from Dr. Srinivas and studying to tackle the upcoming math SAT. Dr. Srinivas treats our kids like his own and beside having two of his own small children Dr. Srinivas is extremely flexible and keeps great communication with his students. He always encourage kids to give their 100 percent in math and explains each question in a very clear manner. A teacher who likes and challenges not just his students but his own performance with a desire to beat old SAT scores. I have been witness to his style of teaching little kids (I believe they were in Elementary school 3 years ago) and his handling of youngest to oldest (my current 10th graders and college level). I would highly recommend anyone looking for an excellent math tutor. You simply cannot find anyone better than Dr. Srinivas. Anup V"
