Certified Tutor

As a passionate advocate for education and a dedicated tutor, I am excited to share my expertise and help students excel in their academic pursuits. With a PhD in Mechanical Engineering from Purdue University and a strong foundation in Mechanical Engineering and Mathematics from Missouri S&T, I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table for all of your tutoring needs.

Throughout my academic journey, I have always been fascinated by the principles of mechanical engineering and its practical applications in solving real-world problems. My passion for this field has driven me to pursue advanced research and contribute to the ever-evolving domain of engineering.

I have had the privilege of working with students from diverse backgrounds and academic levels, from high school to university. Witnessing their growth and witnessing their "aha" moments has been incredibly rewarding. Whether it was helping struggling students grasp complex mathematical concepts or guiding aspiring engineers through challenging projects, I have consistently sought to foster a supportive and engaging learning environment.

One of the subjects I particularly enjoy tutoring is Mathematics. I firmly believe that a strong foundation in math is crucial for success in various fields, and I take pride in simplifying abstract concepts and making them accessible to my students. Seeing them develop confidence in their mathematical abilities is truly fulfilling.

In my tutoring sessions, I strive to create a collaborative atmosphere where students feel comfortable asking questions and actively participating in the learning process. I tailor my teaching approach to accommodate each student's unique learning style, providing personalized guidance and resources to maximize their potential.

Beyond academia, I have a deep appreciation for the arts and enjoy exploring their intersection with engineering. I believe that creativity and innovation go hand in hand, and I constantly seek to broaden my horizons through interdisciplinary projects and collaborations.

I am thrilled to be a part of Varsity Tutors and contribute to the success of students. By sharing my knowledge, passion, and commitment, I aim to empower students to overcome challenges, develop critical thinking skills, and achieve their academic goals.

Thank you for considering me as your tutor. I look forward to embarking on this educational journey together and making a positive impact on your academic growth.
