Videos of Weekly Tutorials

Tutor: Parv Singh

If you are not able to attend weekly classes on time, you can choose the video option. With this option, you can watch the recorded weekly classes (from the current or previous semester) on iPads at my tutoring place.

Price: $250 for access to all videos of the semester.

How it works:

  • You can come Monday to Friday, between 9:00 AM and 9:00 PM.

  • Since the tutoring place is in a business building, you must arrive before 6:00 PM to enter. After entering, you can stay until 9:00 PM.

  • You will need to select your own time slots of 3 to 4 hours (e.g., Monday 3–6 PM, Wednesday 9 AM–12 PM) and keep these consistent throughout the semester.

  • You can choose to watch the latest weekly tutorials during your sessions.

  • Before every visit, you must text me at least 1 hour in advance to confirm availability for that day.

During your session:

  • You will be given an iPad and printed notes.

  • You must bring wired earphones (wireless ones do not work with the iPads). If you don’t have any, I have spare wired earphones available in class.

Important: You must fill out the booking form provided below to reserve your spot.
