Teaching Philosophy
Conceptual Foundations
Start with the why before the how
Students are guided through the logic behind each topic so they can develop deeper insights, not just memorize steps.
Real-World Relevance
Make math meaningful and practical
Lessons are enriched with real-life examples to help students connect abstract ideas to situations they actually encounter.
Interconnected Thinking
See how everything fits together
Math is taught as a connected web of ideas, linking geometry, algebra, and calculus through time-tested methods and logical progression.
Collaborative Learning
Engage, question, and grow together
Students are encouraged to reflect, ask questions, and revisit concepts, creating an open space for active, thoughtful learning.
Subjects Covered
High School Subjects
All high school Mathematics classes.

Testimonials
Upayan Kundu
Dr. Mitra is an excellent teacher. He goes slowly, step by step, and makes sure the student understands the small nitty-gritty aspects of Calculus and Precalculus. He gives plenty of opportunity to ask questions, and does not mind explaining the same concept over and over again. I would highly recommend Dr. Mitra for understanding the foundations of Calculus, Precalculus, and other math subjects.
Mehr Bagga
A great tutor. He takes time to provide a thorough understanding and creates a good foundation for you to excel in your classes. I would highly recommend Math Simplified!

Mr Mitra is a wonderful math tutor who has been teaching my kids for the past four years. He has helped them with concept clarity and develop persistence to work on challenging problems. Mr. Mitra also ensures that the kids stay focused during online classes. It is a blessing to find a teacher who you can trust your kids with and who works hard to get kids to reach their potential.

Dipra was truly the greatest tutor I've ever had. He was able to match his tutoring technique to one which matched my own skill, and accurately evolved and updated his technique to match my own learning and progression. Dipra helped me unlock a skill for mathematics I didn't even know I had!
