Serena Shaikh

Hi! I am Serena Shaikh and a new full-time tutor for mathematics, business, and writing. If I told my younger self I would end up tutoring math, I would’ve laughed! As a young student, I had a lot of hurdles that prevented me from succeeding academically. I hope that my past experiences can encourage students to believe in themselves and push themselves further. If I can turn from a math hater into a math lover, anyone can.

I graduated from Purdue University with a Bachelors in Economics and a minor in mathematics and women’s studies. I have a deep interest in public policy, political science, and sociology. I love economics because it is the intersection of those three things and much more! I studied under the pretense of going to graduate school for economic public policy – but found teaching and helping others to be what truly makes me feel satisfied in life.

In my free time, I love cooking and playing PC video games in the company of my cats and life partner!
