I feel the best indicator of truly mastering a subject is by the ability to teach it. I have a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering and am also a licensed Professional Engineer (PE) in Power Systems. In my 15 years as an Engineer I have worked in various Engineering fields including aerospace, industrial safety, hydro-electric pumping plants, and media systems. Throughout my education and professional career, I have relied heavily on mathematics, problem-solving, and analytical thinking. Math and science has always been an important part of both my academic and professional life. I enjoy helping others understand concepts that may seem difficult at first and showing them that math can be much more approachable than they think.
My approach to tutoring is centered around patience, encouragement, and building confidence. Over the years, I have spent many hours helping my own son with understanding math, and I have seen firsthand how frustrating it can be when a student feels stuck or falls behind on a key concept. The last 2 years I've also enjoyed teaching young children important skills through Cub Scouts as an Assistant Cubmaster and have found that students are often capable of much more than they realize when adapting to the individuals learning style. Those experiences taught me the importance of meeting students where they are, explaining concepts in a clear and relatable way, and creating an environment where questions are always welcome. I believe students learn best when they understand the reasoning behind a solution rather than simply memorizing steps or formulas.
My goal is to help you strengthen your understanding and become a more confident problem solver. I focus on taking larger complex topics that seem overwhelming and breaking it into smaller, manageable steps and helping students develop skills they can use long after a homework assignment or test is finished. Every student learns differently, and I will work with you at your pace to build both understanding and confidence.
