About
As an Ivy League grad, I know what it takes to be a competitive applicant to top Universities. As a professional actor, I also know what soft skills are needed to ace that college or job interview. For the past 8 years, I have also been a performance coach working with C-suite executives on leadership communication and public speaking.
As a tutor, I have over 8 years of experience - at Princeton, I was a McGraw tutor where I tutored undergrad students in organic and general chemistry. After graduation, I have been tutoring students with both Upper Level SSAT/ISEE and SAT/ACT tests, and helping college applicants with their admissions essay and interview skills.

Avanthika was very responsive and helped my cousin prepare for the reading and writing section of SAT. He is from Australia and has no idea about the tests here. So, the sessions with Avanthika helped him a lot.

Avanthika is a true ray of light! She is trustworthy, ahead of the game, and brings a perfect blend of intelligence and skill to everything she does. Having worked with her as an actor, I can confidently say she has an incredible command of language, an adeptness at breaking down material, and an extraordinary ability to connect with others. As an Ivy League graduate, her expertise and insights are unmatched, and she always approaches her work with thoughtfulness and care. Whether you’re looking for coaching or guidance, Avanthika will always exceed your expectations.

I can’t begin to express how amazing Avanthika is as a tutor! She is very motivating and encouraging. She helped my daughter in SAT prep and eventually interview coaching and because of Avanthika’s motivation and guidance, my daughter’s scores improved dramatically. I’m happy to say that she got into Cornell thanks to Avanthika!

Avanthika is not only obviously incredibly intelligent, but she is also patient and articulate. I feel like I am in good hands with her and my chances of achieving my goals are more likely to happen with her helping me.
