Bio

I hold a BSc and MSc degree in Mechanical Engineering and a PhD in Bioengineering (Biomechanics). I also have a certificate in machine learning from Coursera (Stanford University). I did my PhD at the University of Pittsburgh working on vascular biomechanics and medical device design. During my PhD, I was a teacher's assistant (TA) for two semesters and taught some engineering courses including thermodynamics and computer programming (age 18-23 yrs). This was done in a classroom setting...

I hold a BSc and MSc degree in Mechanical Engineering and a PhD in Bioengineering (Biomechanics). I also have a certificate in machine learning from Coursera (Stanford University). I did my PhD at the University of Pittsburgh working on vascular biomechanics and medical device design. During my PhD, I was a teacher's assistant (TA) for two semesters and taught some engineering courses including thermodynamics and computer programming (age 18-23 yrs). This was done in a classroom setting (30-40 students). The computer programming course was a one-to-one office hour as well as quiz/exam grading. I have also tutored college students (age 18-23 yrs) for the following courses: Statics, Strength of Materials, Physics I, Physics II, and calculus I. I was involved in this kind of tutoring (one-to-one) for about 2 years. Lastly, I have taught (free of charge/voluntary) math and physics-related courses/contents to my classmates during high school (age 14-18 yrs). I taught this content to individuals as well as groups of my classmates (maximum of 4-5 students). This was an ongoing effort when I was a high school student. As for my method of teaching, I initially study the class notes (provided by the students) and then try to teach the same content in a more simplified way such that the students understand the concept. I then continue with solving and/or going through some examples to show them how they should start solving the problem and what the process/steps should be. Lastly, I review with them how to organize and write their solutions on their exam sheet. I can teach a variety of courses in the area of mechanical and Bioengineering for engineering students that include but are not limited to fluid mechanics, heat transfer, strength of materials, and statistics. I can also teach the majority of physics and math courses to high school students.

Any courses related to biomechanics, hyperelasticity, and porohyperelasticity fall within my area of expertise.
