Testimonials
AP Calculus
Your class was extremely helpful towards my grade and besides my grade, it gave me such a strong foundation for future math classes and let me understand each concept. Your teaching was perfect and there was no rush in pace; it was easy to see. You were also extremely dedicated to the students as you always allowed any questions to be asked, at any time. I thank you for all I have learned throughout your classes. Yash K., student from Foothill High School, Pleasanton, 2022-23.
Ms. K. has thorough explanations and examples for each topic necessary to do well on the AP Test. She not only prepared me for the test, but caught me up in any classwork I fell behind on. She also provided one-on-one support for any specific problems I had questions about, with in-depth work provided alongside. Ms. K was also able to make sure her students had completely understood the questions she provided before moving on to the next topic, by adding difficulty in problems gradually to test the student’s capabilities. Abhi B., student from Foothill High School, Pleasanton, 2022-23.

Due to the pandemic, the past couple of years have been challenging to my son to stay focused in math. Luckily, my son has been attending the AP Calculus class at Math Concepts Academy and has thrived as a result. Ms. Kameswaran maintains an absolute focus on the subject with her extraordinarily well prepared class materials. In addition, she provides guidance for navigating the math courses required for STEM-oriented students. My son has clearly increased his motivation for learning math with the excellent grade he has achieved. Parent of a student in AP Calculus, 2021-22.
Lalitha is exceptional at what she does because she’s patient and walks you through each concept thoroughly until you can understand and apply it to difficult problems. She breaks each question down clearly and concisely and engages with you so that you fully learn the concept. She’s also very sweet and sincere, and she creates a comfortable learning environment, making the experience worthwhile. Ashna R., currently at Boston College.
For sure Mrs. Kameswaran is one of the best teachers I have ever had! She is not only a great teacher, but a very positive human being and a friend. She is super friendly and really cares about her students and makes sure that students put forth the effort to succeed. Through her teaching style I was able to learn math in a more meaningful way. I can happily say her calculus class prepared me for my success in college level calculus and statistics. Nate S., currently at Arizona State University W.P. Carey School of Business.
I learned that Lalitha was an electrical engineer, computer science major and extremely good at math. I asked her for help to learn calculus to pursue my Master’s Degree in Computer Information Systems and found her style of teaching was so calming, patient and helpful that she eased my fears and showed me how to tackle the various exercises and problems with simple methods and concepts based learning. I passed my final exam with an “A” grade. Lalitha has a way of making learning math fun and non intimidating. Her patience and sincere encouragement for your success is a quality that’s hard to find. I strongly recommend Lalitha to anyone of any age that needs help with math. Elvis G., graduate student in business.
Mrs. Kameswaran was the best math teacher I have ever had in my high school experience. I took calculus from her my senior year, and her patience helped me fully comprehend all of the concepts. Her foundations given for math have even helped me in my college courses! Katelin Y., currently at Saint Mary’s College.
Pre-Calculus
This math class (Pre-Calculus) has helped me greatly with the concepts that I struggled with this year. I have always had trouble with math, but now I have managed to get very good grades. I am feeling more confident going forward and I would recommend this class to any high school student who is struggling with math classes. Meenakshi Y., student from Amador Valley High School, Pleasanton, 2021-22.
Mrs. Kameswaran is an excellent teacher and her lessons have helped me extremely well throughout my Honors Pre-Calculus course.

Algebra 2
Working with Ms. Lalitha was a game changer for me. Her clear explanations and approach made me feel complex concepts more manageable to understand and boosted my confidence in solving challenging problems. Thanks to her guidance I not only achieved excellent grades (Algebra 2 Honors) but also now enjoy math. Ashvik R., student from Foothill High School, Pleasanton, 2022-23.
My daughter, who is in eighth grade in Harvest Park Middle School, took Geometry and Algebra 2 with Lalitha. My daughter loves Lalitha’s class. She has a gift for teaching. She’s patient and supportive. She plans her lessons in accordance with the rigorous school curriculum. She paces the class just right so you feel challenged but not overwhelmed. My daughter’s grades improved a whole letter grade because of Lalitha. Lalitha is a great teacher who can help your child do better. I encourage you to enroll your child in Lalitha’s classes.

Lalitha Kameswaran is an incredible math teacher, and an inspiration to her young students. With her impressive successes in math, computer science, and engineering, Lalitha shows her students how their efforts in math may pay off and contribute to their futures. Not only does Lalitha teach in a clear manner following the pace that her students may need, but she also cares deeply for each and every one of her students, which creates a comfortable and fun environment to most effectively learn in. Lalitha was greatly influential to me during high school, and helped me to succeed. Without the support of Lalitha, I am not sure that I would have believed in myself enough, or have an acceptable comprehension of math, required for my college education. I carried the math skills that I learned from Lalitha onto college math classes, and am thankful for her great teaching, that made me so prepared. Natalie M., currently at University of Puget Sound.
Geometry
Mrs. Kameswaran was my high school geometry instructor. She is, by far, one of the best mathematics teacher I have ever had. She is truly a genuine and knowledgeable person. I have always struggled in mathematics, but my whole perspective changed after taking Lalitha’s geometry course. She made geometry very interesting and engaging and showed me that I can excel in math with some effort. She truly cares about every single one of her students. In essence, she was willing to meet with me 1-on-1 outside her office hours just help me out — this is something that not many teachers can do. I am honestly upset that I only had her for one year, wish I had her for all 4 years in high school. I would recommend you 100% to try out her course because she will help you succeed. Herman Y., currently at University of Southern California, Marshall School of Business.
Lalitha is an excellent teacher, who cares very much for her students. She knew how to make my daughter understand the concepts which made her achieve her best in 8th grade/Algebra 1 and Geometry this year. We are thankful to Mrs. Lalitha and Math Concepts Academy. My daughter wants to continue with her through high school, as she feels Mrs. Lalitha is her best Math teacher. Parent of a student from Harvest Park Middle School, Pleasanton, 2020-21.
