Krisha Advani

Krisha graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from New York University, where she discovered her passion for understanding the inner workings of the mind. During her undergraduate years, she worked at several learning centers supporting students from kindergarten through high school, an experience that deepened her interest in child and adolescent development and made her realize how much she enjoy helping students grow academically and personally. She is pursuing a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling at Columbia University. Krisha hopes to use this degree to focus on child and adolescent mental health. As a tutor, Krisha loves working 1-on-1 with students in both math and reading to create individualized study plans that fit their learning styles. She believes that every student learns differently, so she strives to make lessons engaging, supportive, and tailored to their needs, helping them build confidence step by step. Her favorite part of tutoring is seeing a student building their problem solving skills and gaining confidence in their work. Outside of tutoring and academics, Krisha enjoys spending time with family and friends, baking various sweet treats, and working on creative projects such as drawing and painting!
