About Sumedha
As an essay tutor and journalist with five years of experience, I know that great writing and comprehension requires a mix of creativity, structure, and targeted practice.
For essays, if I had to condense my personal system, it would come down to drawing out the best, most resonant elements of personal stories or researched facts, sticking to diligent analysis, and heeding the importance of “showing, not telling.”
With regard to test prep, I specialize in helping students identify gaps and strengths within their own analysis, to identify precise test strategies.
Feel free to book a trial lesson with me if you would like to work on specific test-taking techniques or have an essay to revise!
Available Monday-Friday, afternoons and evenings.
Saturday-Sunday, mornings and afternoons.

Hi, I’m Sumedha! I offer high-impact, student-led lessons designed to identify your specific strengths and blind spots.
My Approach:
Textual Analysis: I focus on building familiarity with content, improving answer techniques, and mastering English test-taking strategies.
Essay Coaching: I help you find your unique voice. Using my experience in one-on-one tutoring, I help students structure well-reasoned, evocative essays that stand out.
The Lesson Structure: We start with a diagnostic to gauge your needs, move into targeted concept work, and end with skill practice.
Availability: Monday–Friday (Afternoons/Evenings); Saturday–Sunday (Mornings/Afternoons).
Trial Lesson: Your first session is free! We’ll use this time to discuss your goals, review your current work, and build a roadmap for your success.q

Sumedha has helped me with various aspects of school. Though she has a varying skill set she has helped a lot with my writing skills. From analyzing to knowing how best to write the essay. She helped with my DBQs, write my best performing speeches, debate cases, and getting prepared for intimidating in class essays. There has only been an upward trend since and I feel much more confident in my writing abilities since and am able to reach a “writers flow”.
