What we teach
Math, and the tests that measure it.
Two areas, one standard: the concept first, at the board, then practice written for the student in front of us.
Math
Following your student’s school course and staying a step ahead of it, from pre-algebra to calculus.
- Middle school mathGrades 6–8 and pre-algebra
- Algebra 1
- Geometry
- Algebra 2 and trigonometry
- Precalculus and AP Precalculus
- AP Calculus AB and BC
SAT and ACT
Both tests, taught as equals: a timed diagnostic, a plan built back from the test date, and practice aimed at the points still on the table.
- SAT prepThe digital SAT: Reading and Writing, and Math
- ACT prepEnglish, math, reading, science and the essay
Not sure which test suits your student? Colleges accept either, and a practice test of each usually settles it. See how the two compare.

How it works
A plan before the first session.
Sessions run on weekdays after school until 8 p.m. Eastern Time, and on weekends, for families anywhere in the US.
- 01
A free consultation
A conversation with you and your student about where they are, where they need to be, and by when. No charge, no commitment.
- 02
A diagnostic
A practice test for SAT and ACT students and a skills check for math students, so teaching starts from evidence rather than guesswork.
- 03
A written plan
The topics, the order and the pace, set out in writing and timed to run ahead of the school calendar or back from the test date.
- 04
One-on-one sessions
Each session opens at the board with the concept, moves to materials written for that student, and sets the work for the week.
- 05
Updates for parents
Regular written updates, so you always know what was covered and what comes next.
Who teaches
Every student works with Rijul.
Rijul founded Vidansa to teach the way he thought it should be done: a small roster, materials written for the individual student rather than pulled off a shelf, and a plan that runs ahead of the school calendar instead of chasing it.

- Dual degree in Data Science and Business Administration
- Regents’ Scholar
- Named at the University of California, Berkeley
- Houlihan Lokey and Summit Partners

Why Vidansa
What is different here.
- 01
A small roster
Vidansa takes on a limited number of students at a time, so each one gets materials written for them and a tutor who knows their work.
- 02
Materials written for the student
No packet off a shelf. Every worksheet is built from the gaps the last session exposed.
- 03
Ahead of the calendar
Wherever the schedule allows, a topic is covered before school reaches it, so the student walks into class already able to follow.
Testimonials
What families say.
“My two kids, now 7th and 5th grades, have been working with Rijul for 2.5 years, and both started well behind grade level. Both my kids wrapped up the previous school year top of their classes. My son was invited to compete in a global math competition as a representative of the school for this current school term. Math has become their favorite subject, they look forward to new concepts and challenges, and tackle them with true confidence.

“Rijul not only teaches them math, but also instills a genuine curiosity and joy for learning. My kids love their tutoring sessions, and actively ask for extra time with Rijul if they have an exam to prep for.
“Rijul truly cares about his students. We started working together in CA, then relocated to Hong Kong. Despite the time difference, Rijul has made sure my kids do not skip a beat in math. My son also often praises that Rijul teaches in ways he can actually understand.
“We are so deeply grateful for all the work Rijul has done.”
TS · Parent of 5th and 7th graders, Hong Kong “Rijul has been an incredible math and science tutor for my daughter. Beyond helping her strengthen her understanding of the subjects, he has helped her become more diligent, confident, and accountable as a student. What really sets Rijul apart is how invested he is in her success — he checks in regularly, follows up on her progress, and genuinely cares about her outcomes. We have seen a meaningful difference in both her confidence and her approach to school since working with him.”
