About Urja
I graduated from Year 12 in 2023 and am studying medicine. In Mathematics, I have excelled academically, placing in the top 25% of the University of Waterloo Gauss Maths Contest and receiving excellence awards for my performance. Furthermore, I completed Specialist Methods in Year 11 and 12, further enhancing my proficiency in the subject. I have also achieved the Tom Leech Memorial Trophy for Scientific Research by using a unique blend of STEM aspects to write a journal article. Additionally, I took Specialist Methods in my tertiary package and achieved in the top 5% of my cohort consistently.
Here's also why I'd be a great tutor:
- Undergraduate entry into Medicine (fresh out of high school!)
- 98.95 ATAR
- Received offers of studies from 3 different med schools.

As a second-year medical student with a passion for problem-solving and critical thinking, I bring a methodical and results-driven approach to mathematics education. My academic accomplishments include placing in the top 25% of the prestigious University of Waterloo Gauss Mathematics Contest, alongside excelling in a double-math package in Year 12. With over three years of tutoring experience, I have worked with more than 50 students across a range of abilities and age groups, delivering tailored lessons that break down abstract mathematical concepts into accessible, engaging formats. By integrating visual aids and auditory techniques, I ensure that students not only understand the material but also build lasting confidence in their skills. Furthermore, I strongly believe that learning does not end in the lesson itself, and encourage students to complete personalised homework tasks and tests in between our sessions.

We started UCAT Tutoring for both, my daughter and son, with Urja earlier this year and they absolutely aced their exams today! Our family is so grateful to her for the invaluable support and strategies she provided them, and her honest approach to lessons- she helped my children even outside lesson times, and ensured that they were kept on the right track. She has played a key role in helping them through this process, and we are looking forward to collaborating with her again when interview times roll around (finger's crossed).
Urja has been teaching me Year 11 Biology and Chemistry, and she's helped me improve my grades so much- she always walks me through tough concepts in a way that makes them easy to understand, and is happy to answer any questions I may have! She also makes learning fun, since she's always positive and clearly outlines how I can improve in a constructive manner. I'm so glad I started lessons with her- she's the best!
Urja tutors with me for a non-profit and we both teach calculus, algebra, and SAT reading to underpriveleged students from the United States and Canada. She is lovely to work with and oozes cheerfulness, always positively reinforcing her students and to increase their confidence, while improving their knowledge.
Urja tutored my daughter English literature for 2 years, and brought her grades from low C's to A's. She was incredibly dedicated to teaching lessons, and adapted them to fit learning styles, explaining hard concepts patiently and effectively. She was lovely to interact with, always enthusiastic, and was ready to go the extra mile to help.
