Imtiazur taught me structures (physics in mechanical engineering) last semester and this semester. He explains very clearly and makes sure you understand. He is very patient and warm. And is always prepared, he makes sure to understand all the material before you meet with him so that everythhing is clear. I’ve never left Imtiazur’s without understanding all the material and he makes sure to let you know that he is always available for questions.

After having multiple AutoCAD lessons with Eugene, I can say that he is one of the best instructors/tutors I have ever had. The first lesson involved finding out what I wanted to get out of learning the program. After I explained that I was a mechanical engineering student, Eugene knew exactly where to take it from there. It was comforting to know that our sessions were being tailored to fit my particular needs.
Jeremy W.

6 lessons

So I scheduled another exam in a month but this time, spent a lot of time practicing what Jonathan taught me. I retook the exam and am proud to say I scored very well on verbal reasoning. Honest truth, my score increased 8 fold (percentile wise) in around 1.5 months of practice. Long story short, I got into my dream university, University of Pennsylvania, for my Masters in Mechanical Engineering.
