Abraham: Halifax tutor

Certified Tutor

You can succeed! and I love to help you succeed! I genuinely care for my students, so I train them to be better than who I am. I am currently a Ph.D. Student in Mathematics. I have a Bachelors degree in Electronics and Communication Engineering and a prior work experience as Software Engineer.

My philosophy of teaching stems from my favorite quote by Thomas Carruthers: "A teacher is one who makes himself progressively unnecessary". I strive to make a student learn the critical-thinking and problem-solving skills needed to succeed in STEM fields especially in Mathematics. I love been there patiently for a student until She/He has a rock solid understanding of the concept. Sometime teaching is like construction! Before we build, one must tear down unnecessary remnants and that's exactly what I do in a very graceful way. I detect any gaps in a student's conceptual understanding and to point out certain possible pitfalls in their thinking pattern that might hinder them from solving a problem of completely different nature and difficulty.

I can help with all Math, Physics and Computer Science courses, including AP and college level courses. Also I can teach how to tackle math and physics problems from competitive exams (such as SAT, GRE, GMAT) with high speed and accuracy.

Outside of academics, I love playing soccer, traveling and hiking. I also enjoy playing piano and guitar.
