"I'm a former mechanical engineering professor with over 13 years of combined teaching and tutoring experience. I hold a PhD in Mechanical Engineering and taught at the university level for 3 years, where I developed curriculum and mentored hundreds of students through challenging engineering concepts.

I specialize in one-on-one tutoring for college engineering students, AP-level mathematics and science, and programming. My approach focuses on developing robust problem-solving strategies rather than just memorizing formulas. I teach students how to approach unfamiliar problems systematically and, most importantly, what to do when they get stuck. We work on identifying key information, recognizing problem patterns, and building a toolkit of strategies they can draw from when facing challenging concepts independently. My goal is to transform students from passive learners into confident problem-solvers who can tackle any technical challenge.

I've worked with students ranging from high school AP courses (Calculus, Physics, Computer Science) to graduate-level engineering coursework. My students consistently improve their grades and, more importantly, gain confidence in technical subjects. I specialize in helping students prepare for standardized tests like the GRE and professional engineering exams. Whether you're struggling with calculus concepts, debugging Python code, or preparing for the FE exam, I tailor each session to your specific learning style and goals." less...
