About Me

As a Washington University in St. Louis mechanical engineering senior, I have vast tutoring experience. Starting in high school I founded a tutoring club to help struggling students, and also tutored high-level math lane students on the side. After that, I went on to work at Mathnasium, where I tutored groups of up to 5 students at a time in math ranging from 1st grade to 8th grade. I am very familiar with how to motivate students who are bored or dont feel like doing work! As a freshman in college, I also volunteered by teaching reading and math to underprivileged students through Each One Teach One. In college, I went on to be employed as an engineering tutor for over 50% of my high level mechanical engineering courses. I have been a teaching assistant for Circuits, Mechanics 3, and Heat Transfer courses. I am confident in classes such as Calc 3, Physics I, CAD hand drafting or PTC Creo CAD, Differential Equations, Introduction to Electronics Circuits, Engineering Math A & B, Mechanics 1, 2, & 3, Materials Science, Thermodynamics, Design of Thermal Systems, Heat Transfer, Vibrations, Dynamics and Vibrations. I can help with full-length lab reports, as well as other upper level division mechanical engineering classes. I attended one of the most rigorous high schools in California, taking the highest level math lane classes offered each year. I am very confident in my abilities to teach or tutor in difficult Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, and Calculus classes, as well as math subjects below that level. Outside of tutoring, I am working towards an entrepreneurship minor. I am currently the COO and CFO of two early-stage medical device startups, and I will be employed as a healthcare consultant after the upcoming summer. I working towards an MBA. I have a passionate for dance, and performed in hip hop, Latin jazz, and Bollywood performances throughout college. Everyone has the potential to be whoever they want to be, if they put in the hard work. I motivate my students to find their own drive, becoming independent, hardworking and passionate about what they do. Each student is unique, and once I figure out what they find fun, I incorporate it into my teaching style. My ultimate goal is to give you the most out of each tutoring session.

Q&A with Elizabeth

Women can't be engineers. Yes, they can! Everyone has the potential to be whoever they want to be if they put in the hard work. I motivate my students to find their own drive, becoming independent, hardworking, and passionate about what they do. Rather than giving a student the answer to their question, I ask them well-crafted questions until they come to the answer themselves, learning how to learn on their own. Most importantly, I make learning fun! Each student is unique, and once I figure out what they find fun, I incorporate it into my teaching style. Hate math, but love biking? Let's find the circumference of a bike wheel.
