Kapil - Know your tutor
Myself Kapil Arora, I am a BITS Pilani graduate in Electronics and Electrical Engineering and currently working as an Analog Engineer in the Semiconductor industry. I offer personalized learning experiences in a wide range of subjects including Probability, Geometry, Calculus, Algebra and almost all mathematics topics for middle school, high school, elementary school and college students. My teaching style includes innovative methods focusing on the depth of approach (first principles). I like to teach mathematics and have tutored numerous students who have aced almost all competitive examinations. My students confidence gets boosted after my classes and there mathematics performance and scores improve a lot. I focus also on problem solving and practicing as practice makes a man perfect. Let's get started and conquer mathematics together!

Class overview
My approach is focused on fundamentals and basics [first principles] as I believe these are foundational to a person's overall understanding and knowledge about a topic. I know fundamentals and basics are foundational to a person's knowledge and hold over any particular topic/subject and my focus is to develop fundamentals of students. My approach is very simple and focusing on the basics - the understanding about a topic has to be so deep that student does not have to remember any formulas/words/topics. It needs to be ingrained in the mind with a level of deep understanding such that there is no need for remembering. I integrate practice drills and question solving to build concepts within the live class to make the concepts engrained into the mind of the student. My live class includes Google meet and interactive whiteboards to make the most of the live lessons and explain students doubts and questions on the fly. And also clearly follow the students' approach to problem solving observing the minute details and correcting the students' approach for the best results and performance. Let's get started and boost your Mathematics scores.

Mathematics concepts taught by Kapil
The Student and Tutor worked on various problems related to proportional relationships in mathematics, including calculating the constant of proportionality from numerical data and graphs. They practiced writing equations for proportional relationships and interpreting unit rates from graphical representations. The Student will have another trial lesson with a different tutor at a later date.
Identifying Constant from an Equation
Constant of Proportionality (k)
Identifying Proportional Relationships Graphically
Writing Equations for Proportional Relationships
Unit Rate as the Constant of Proportionality
The Student and Tutor focused on foundational concepts of exponential and logarithmic functions, including their definitions, graphing, and key properties. They practiced solving limit problems involving these functions, particularly those requiring factoring to resolve indeterminate forms. The plan for the next session includes reviewing asymptotes and addressing specific problems from a past exam the Student found challenging.
Exponential Functions & Their Graphs
Logarithmic Functions: The Inverse of Exponentials
Logarithm Properties: The Division Rule
Logarithm Properties: The Multiplication Rule
Evaluating Limits with Logarithms and Rational Expressions
The Student and Tutor reviewed matrix multiplication rules, focusing on the conditions for multipliability and determining the dimensions of the resulting matrix. The Student practiced matrix multiplication and was introduced to the concept of multiplication inverses and the identity matrix. They then learned and successfully practiced the algebraic method for finding the inverse of a 2x2 matrix by solving a system of linear equations.
Matrix Multiplication: Compatibility & Dimensions
Identity Matrix
Multiplicative Inverse of Matrices: Definition
Finding the Inverse of a 2x2 Matrix (Algebraic Method)
The Student and Tutor reviewed summation formulas for Arithmetic and Geometric Progressions, including how to apply them for specific ranges. The session then introduced the fundamentals of matrices, covering dimensions, identity matrices, addition, subtraction, and multiplication, with the Student actively practicing matrix multiplication problems. The Student was encouraged to complete homework related to matrices.
Matrix Dimensions & Identity
Matrix Addition & Subtraction
Matrix Multiplication Rules
Performing Matrix Multiplication
The session focused on reviewing and practicing the summation of Arithmetic Progressions (AP) and Geometric Progressions (GP). Student and Tutor revisited the formulas for both types of series, particularly addressing how to apply them when the series does not start from the first term (n=0 or n=1). The Student was assigned two practice problems as homework, requiring the application of the learned formulas.
Advanced Techniques for Summing Complex Series (Mixed AP & GP)
Sum of Geometric Progression (GP) Formula & Starting Point
Sum of Arithmetic Progression (AP) Review
The Student and Tutor continued their mathematics lesson by reviewing sum of series problems, transitioning from arithmetic to geometric series. They practiced applying the general formula for the sum of a geometric series, focusing on correct application, handling different starting terms, and dealing with fractional common ratios. The Student was assigned to complete outstanding problems and will receive additional practice problems for homework.
Adjusting for Geometric Series Starting from x¹
Distinguishing 'x' (Common Ratio) and 'n' (Upper Limit)
Simplifying Expressions with Exponents
Handling Constant Multipliers in GP Sums
General Formula for Sum of Geometric Series (GP)
