About Hardik
I hold a degree in Mathematics and Computer Science from Chennai Mathematical Institute, one of India's leading institutions for pure mathematics. I went on to clear the entrance examinations for both the ISI M.Math and the CMI MSc in Computer Science, and was selected for a research placement in transcendental number theory at Institut Fourier in Grenoble, under the Charpak Scholarship Programme.
I have more than 2 years of teaching experience and currently lead an advanced mathematics programme for students preparing for competitive entrance examinations, so I work with serious mathematics every day rather than teaching from a syllabus I last touched years ago.

About My Teaching Method & Philosophy
My approach is built on a simple philosophy: Math is not about memorizing formulas; it is about developing logical intuition. Coming from a rigorous theoretical background at CMI, I don’t just teach students how to solve a problem—I teach them how to see the problem.
I focus heavily on first-principles thinking. Instead of giving students a step-by-step recipe, I guide them to discover the underlying mathematical structures. This builds deep, flexible problem-solving skills that allow them to tackle unfamiliar, complex questions with absolute confidence.
The Structure of My Classes
Every online session is highly interactive, utilizing a digital whiteboard, and typically follows a structured 60-minute format:
* The Warm-Up (5–10 Mins): We review a challenging problem from the previous session's homework, clearing up conceptual doubts and resetting the student's mathematical mindset.
* Core Conceptual Breakdown (20 Mins): We dissect a new, advanced topic using visual proofs and core logical definitions rather than superficial shortcuts.
* Guided Live Problem Solving (25 Mins): We tackle Olympiad-level or AP-level problems together. I use a "Socratic prompting" method—asking strategic questions to let the student drive the derivation and make the final breakthrough themselves.
* The De-Brief & Strategy (5 Mins): We summarize the core takeaways of the day and assign targeted, highly curated practice problems designed to stretch their thinking before the next session.
My Special Features as a Teacher
* Elite Academic Pedigree: As a graduate of the Chennai Mathematical Institute (CMI)—one of the world's premier destinations for theoretical mathematics—I bring a level of mathematical depth that goes far beyond standard high school textbooks.
* Olympiad & Competitive Edge: I have 2+ years of experience training students for hyper-competitive, proof-based entrance exams. I successfully translate this expertise to train US students for the AMC 10/12, AIME, and AP Calculus BC tracks.
* Visual & Structural Intuition: I specialize in breaking down abstract topics (like Advanced Calculus, Linear Algebra, and Combinatorics) into clean, visual, and intuitive concepts that make sense to the student.
Who My Classes Are Intended For
My classes are designed strictly for driven, ambitious students aiming for top-tier academic excellence:
* High School Students (Grades 9–12): Aspiring STEM majors looking to score a perfect 5 on AP Calculus (AB/BC) or AP Statistics, or secure top percentiles in the SAT/ACT Math sections.
* Math Olympiad Competitors: Students prepping for competitive pipelines like the AMC 10, AMC 12, and AIME, looking to build the creative logic needed for proof-based mathematics.
* Undergraduate College Students: College students looking for comprehensive support in university-level Linear Algebra, Abstract Algebra, Real Analysis, and Calculus I-III.
