Mehak: Huntington Beach tutor

Certified Tutor

I am a current senior at the University of Texas at Dallas, pursuing a degree in biomedical engineering with plans to continue my education by pursuing a master's degree. Currently, I am gaining valuable experience as an undergraduate research assistant, further deepening my understanding of my field.

My tutoring journey began as a self-employed tennis instructor, where I worked with middle and high school students to help them develop and refine their tennis skills. Through analyzing their abilities in drills and singles matches, I honed my communication skills to understand their strengths and weaknesses. This experience allowed me to create personalized training programs for each student, fostering a passion for teaching and mentorship.

Building on this foundation, I transitioned into tutoring mathematics, specifically focusing on algebra and calculus for middle and high school students. My involvement in guiding my younger sister through her high school studies has been influential in shaping my tutoring approach. I believe in tailoring my teaching style to meet the unique needs of each student, providing a personalized and effective learning experience.

Additionally, my ability to fluently speak Hindi has proven beneficial in overcoming language barriers, facilitating a deeper understanding of mathematical concepts for some students. This skill has allowed me to connect with students on a more personal level, fostering an environment where they feel comfortable and supported in their learning journey.

Outside of academia, I am passionate about tennis, where I continue to enjoy playing. My dog, Cooper, an adorable German Shepherd mix turning four soon, adds joy to my life. I also love reading and exploring both books and research papers in my field. Currently, I am working on a hands-on project that aligns with my academic interests, further enhancing my knowledge and skills.
