Reviews from others

“Shankari was incredibly knowledgeable on the subject and an invaluable resource. Without her I likely wouldn't pass chemistry. She has a great no-nonsense approach to teaching, cutting out all the superfluous information and getting right to the core of the matter in order to establish a strong groundwork right off the bat. Really excellent tutoring, and a lovely personality to boot.”
