"Welcome to my tutoring profile! I'm Umar, and I have 6 years of experience tutoring advanced math topics like Calculus 1-3, Linear Algebra, Differential Equations, and applied math/engineering concepts. Additionally, I taught Calculus for 1 year to classrooms of 30+ students. My approach is patient, friendly, and explanation-driven, helping students master tough concepts with confidence. During office hours at two universities, I’ve guided students from struggling to confidently teaching concepts back to me—truly rewarding!

I graduated from UC Berkeley (2023) with a Master's in Mechanical Engineering and magna cum laude from UC Merced with a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering and a minor in Applied Mathematics. I also run a math YouTube channel: youtube.com/@umar5834.

I’m passionate about teaching Algebra, Calculus, Linear Algebra, and engineering courses like physics, mechanics, thermo, fluids, heat transfer, and more. For advanced topics, please share homework files or specific questions beforehand. I tutor online and in-person (Berkeley area).

I also help students prepare for the Mechanical Engineering FE exam (I’ve passed it!) and offer tutoring in Python, MATLAB, and CAD software like SolidWorks and OnShape.

I love working with students who are eager to learn and gain confidence in math and engineering. My sessions are tailored for students who want to go beyond just passing their classes. I’m happy to work with students on pricing, especially for regular sessions. For example, I can offer a reduced rate and free summary notes or practice problems for students who book weekly/biweekly sessions.

Thanks for considering me as your math/engineering tutor!" less...
