Addrita B

Computer Science - Stony Brook University

Hey! I'm Addrita, a Computer Science student yet with a strong foundation in writing, communication, and academic mentorship. I take pride in breaking down complex ideas into clear and practical steps that students can understand and apply. Throughout high school and college, I have supported peers through coursework, study habits, and confidence building, often helping them navigate both academic material and the challenges that come with balancing school and life. I enjoy creating a calm and supportive learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and taking intellectual risks. I look forward to our future sessions!
