I have spent 15 years in higher education training to be an electronics and communication engineer. This major is considered to be one of the most mathematically-demanding engineering majors and I have therefore acquired a high level of mathematical sophistication. Over the years, I helped tutor many of my peers in undergraduate- and graduate-level classes. As I started pursuing my master's degree, I became a part-time teaching assistant for 4 years and I developed my natural knack for explaining difficult concepts in an engaging way as I held recitations and lab sessions in 6 different subjects. While pursuing my PhD, I also taught a lab for undergraduate students and taught a couple of guest lectures in my advisor's graduate-level classes. I have also developed (from scratch) and taught continuing education classes for young engineers to teach them programming skills in the context of electrical engineering.

I have consistently received solid positive feedback from my students, especially focused on my approach of asking questions and letting the learners answer them to either discover the concepts for themselves or to bring out common misconceptions so they can avoid them (commonly known as the Socratic method of teaching). I find teaching very rewarding and love the look in my students' eyes when I can see that understanding has finally dawned on them.

I'm happy to work with the specific needs of students and/or parents to help them achieve their academic goals.
