The Integral Factor was formed to equip individuals with exceptional skills and connect them with the proper education and career paths to find the best real-life applications for long-term success.
You might say – great, but there are already plenty of tutoring services out there that claim to do the same thing.
They don’t. All our clients have found us having tried other tutors only to come away feeling disillusioned, disappointed, and frustrated about having spent “all that time and money.” Investing with us from the beginning has been “the best money I’ve ever spent,” since we’re in this for the long term, and you are too.
At the Integral Factor, you won’t have to guess or weed through the chaff about when we get to the good stuff. We work with you, by personally getting to know you to “learn how you learn” in the most effective way possible. You acquire new skills, build confidence, and acquire the self-awareness to proactively manage yourself during crunch time without worrying about falling behind your peers.
We combine our knowledge and experience to provide mentoring and tutoring services to high school, college and professional students in Math, Programming, Data Science, Finance, and English.
My academic life led me from a highly competitive high school to the world of pure math, transferring from Emory to Cornell after exhausting all classes offered in Math and Physics, culminating in my BA in Mathematics and Physics from Cornell University in 2006.

Many colleges struggle to prepare students how to translate their academic understanding to real-life situations. With the combined academic and professional experience of our tutors, our mentoring, job preparation and consulting services fill that gap. We help young people navigate their fields of study and grow the right skillset to start a successful career, so that their degree programs don’t navigate them into a corner.
We guarantee you will come away with a better understanding of the subject matter and the EQ to foster connections after you leave. Our journey together doesn’t stop at the end of each session either. We follow up and stay in touch after each critical milestone, whether it’s an important year-end exam or a job interview. Staying in touch is critical in maintaining your professional network and discovering new opportunities.
Do you want to stand out in the college admissions process and learn advanced coding, science, or data-science skills on a hands-on project?
Or maybe you’re a parent and want to mentor and nurture your child’s technical interests.
Our High School tutors have your back. We have experience from universities across the country over the last two decades: knowing what they look for, their trends, and how to stand out. Combined with our K-12 experience, we nurture your child’s interests and optimize their placement in the college admissions process.
We’ve all had “that class” in college. You know – the one everyone says is hard or has the professor to avoid – but you have to take it for your major, and there are no other sections. How do you ace it? Or maybe you just want to just get-ahead and skip the class altogether?
Or, perhaps midterms or finals are looming, and you need some extra help understanding the material from a seasoned professional? How can you get in the top decile and get that 4.0 GPA?
Our college tutors, with over 15 years of experience across different universities, will get you there. We’ve helped dozens of students get the A in “that class.” The understanding and depth we’ve imparted to students have helped them clinch that internship junior year and nab that job after graduation – setting them on a successful path for years to come.
What wall-street shop should I apply to?
I see the same position at two different tech companies – is there a difference?
I’m a CS major but can’t pass big tech’s coding interviews – what happened?
I’ve had bad experiences with managers in the past, but I loved the companies – what am I missing?
These are just a few questions we’ve helped our clients answer over 15 years in finance and big tech. We start with what you’re looking for to narrow down the list of opportunities, so you don’t waste your time. After that, we leverage quality recruiters to help you get your foot in the door, screening the hiring manager and their track record along the way.
Once you get the interview comes interview prep and mock interviews. We help curate practice questions tailored to your firm, job description, and expertise, identifying your strengths and areas that need improvement using over a decade of experience and industry trends ranging from technical to non-technical.
We’ll be with you to the offer stage and help you negotiate your value, and stay in touch long after you accept. We’re in this for the long run since you are too.
I’d like to understand what careers are available in tech (or finance) so I can choose which classes to take.
I’m a software developer and want more exposure to AI and ML to transition into a more data science role.
I’ve worked in my field for several years and want to transition careers. I’d like to work with a tutor going through a specific book.
Just like job preparation – these are some of the things that come up during our clients’ professional mentorship journeys. From Data Science, AI, Statistics, and Software development to Finance – we help you navigate your career path to achieve your goals.
Designed for universities, companies, and professionals that have quantitative business problems that need to be solved now but don’t need to hire someone full-time. We provide Data Science, Mathematics, Statistics, or Finance consultants who are experienced professionals .
We begin by understanding your needs with a first free session to determine goodness-of-fit. We then provide you with an SLA describing terms of service, fee structure (hourly or milestone-based), scope, and timelines. With regular check-ins to ensure quality and progress of the output, we undertake your tasks to completion.
