" As an Engineering student, my coursework requires me to maintain and constantly improve my understanding and ability to perform in the subjects of Mathematics, Chemistry, and Physics.

"I come from a very big family where I'm one of the oldest, so I've been solving the same arithmetic problems for years and know how to handle lots of different personalities and ages. I like to make what may seem difficult into something easy and keep things simple. I believe sometimes children get frustrated, but once you teach them where the key to knowledge is, they will grow and shine. I enjoy relating things to other subjects and playing games to learn."
