About Maher

In 2012, I graduated with honors from UC Berkeley after just three years of study, majoring in Psychology with a focus on Pre-Medical Sciences. For the past ten years, I've dedicated myself to tutoring, working one-on-one with students throughout the country.

What sets me apart as a tutor is my unwavering commitment to my students' academic success and my tailored approach to their unique needs. To begin, I thoroughly assess each student's current knowledge level, ensuring a strong foundation or addressing any gaps in understanding before proceeding with lessons. Rather than simply offering solutions, I use a Socratic method, asking probing questions to guide students towards the correct thought processes. This approach empowers them to tackle problems independently, boosting their confidence and problem-solving abilities.

One of my standout strengths is my psychology background, which I developed while being inducted into Psi Chi, The International Psychology Honors Society in 2012. This psychological insight allows me to maximize each student's potential by understanding their learning styles and adapting my teaching methods accordingly.

My specialty is online tutoring, leveraging the excellent Wyzant platform. This platform provides essential tools like webcams, whiteboards, screen sharing, and more. I use a digital notepad, stylus, multiple monitors, and a touch screen computer to write notes and calculations directly onto the screen, which can be saved for future reference. Many of my students have found online lessons to be both convenient and effective. Additionally, I'm available 24/7 for online lessons, providing emergency help when needed. Feel free to ask about a free online tutoring demo to experience it for yourself!

Expert tutor

I began using Maher’s tutoring service in the 10th grade of high school and continued doing so up until my second year of college. During this period we covered Geometry, Chemistry, Algebra, Statistics (AP), ACT review, Pre-Calc (college), Calc 1 (college), and Calc 2 (college). My ability to do well within these classes was made possible due to the time Maher took in explaining and working out problems from these subjects. Maher is without a doubt the best tutor I have had the experience working with. He not only has an ability to break down concepts to an understandable level but is able to expand on ideas which helped me develop detailed understandings of difficult topics. College-level calculus was by far the most challenging course I have so far as a student, however, Maher helped me understand the intricacies of the subject to the point where I actually enjoyed studying for the class. I would recommend Maher to anyone I knew, regardless of personality or student type. He is flexible, patient, understanding, calm, and unbelievably helpful. His tutoring helped me pass extremely difficult courses, and thanks to him I was able to successfully transfer from my community college to UCSD for a degree in economics! If you are in need of a tutor, there is no one more qualified than Maher.

Excellent tutor

Maher is a great tutor for my son with his Calc BC class. My son's teacher at school leaves lots of gaps and Maher has helped him this year to fill those in and master skills. Maher is also very prompt with scheduling and any communications, and is able to accommodate my son's schedule/needs. 5 Stars! Highly recommend.

Sarah, 10 lessons with Maher

Best Tutor I’ve ever had 🙏🏼

I suffer from ADHD therefore understanding statistics has always been very challenging for me. Maher does such a good job at explaining everything and makes it very easy to comprehend the material. I have met with him twice this week and I have already learned more than I have in my entire semester with my own professor. I’m so confident that I’ll crush my upcoming exam thanks to him. Definitely will book him again!

Paulette, 3 lessons with Maher

Awesome teacher, very thorough

Made all of the confusing topics really easy to understand and helped to improve mistakes! Went over all the important main ideas and didn’t rush when explaining confusing questions.

GOOYOUNG, 1 lesson with Maher

a true "go-to- guy" for tutoring

Maher has been my son's tutor in high school in various subjects since my son was in tenth grade. He has tutored my son in chemistry AP, statistics AP, precalculus H, calculus BC (AP) and physics C (AP). My son has gotten A's in the classes and scored a 4 or 5 on the AP tests in all of the classes that Maher has tutored him in. Maher has been instrumental in helping my son do well in these classes. Maher is very accommodating, available, and without a doubt, knows the subjects extremely well. It goes without saying that he has excellent communication skills which makes him an effective tutor. Because Maher has helped my son excel academically, this helped my son get accepted to his dream school, Northeastern University. I highly recommend Maher for tutoring in various disciplines.

Absolutely Brilliant

Maher has been my go to tutor for any high level stem related subjects for the last five years. He breaks problems down better than most professors and makes sure that you understand what you have just learned. I would recommend Maher to anyone taking any form of calculus or science!

Paul, 114 lessons with Maher

Amazing tutor, very patient.

Maher is an amazing tutor. Math is not my specialty, so taking a summer course is a difficult task for me. Maher has made it so much easier, he is patient with me and really makes sure I understand the material. Best math tutor I’ve ever had.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

I have been working with Maher for a few weeks now. He is a great tutor. He is very knowledgeable and is very patient. He is great to work with. I would recommend Maher as a tutor. He has been incredibly helpful!

Marisa, 62 lessons with Maher

Great R tutor

Maher is very easy to follow and understand. My college level stats 100 course required us to use R, but did not teach us how to use it. I was completely new to R (& R-Studio) and coding, but I was able to learn so much during my first 90 minute session with Maher. I was able to finish my entire assignment during our session as well. I would highly recommend Maher to anyone who needs helping learning how to use R!

Mairead, 9 lessons with Maher

Knowledgeable, nice, and available short notice!

Maher is a fantastic tutor. He is very knowledgeable in chemistry and helped me get an A in my chemistry class at UCLA. He was always available to help even at short notice and the online sessions are great! I highly recommend him for chemistry tutoring!
