I am a computer engineering student at the University of Illinois. I enjoy all aspects of my courses from the pure math to the engineering. I always enjoy tutoring and teaching all forms of math and physics. I have done volunteer tutoring for high school math courses and some private tutoring for physics courses. I always enjoy conversing with other students about subject matter because explaining the material in multiple ways deepens my own understanding. While tests can give a rough idea of competency, I believe it is important to talk about the material and see how other students interpret the deeper concepts. I also believe that a fundamental base for the sciences and math is important in our complex and technological world. While it may not be necessary to be able to perform calculations for modern devices, it is useful to understand the basic principles that they operate on. This can allow one to solve problems related to the device and also apply the principles to other facets of life.
