I am a PhD candidate in Petroleum Engineering at the Colorado School of Mines, where I maintain a 4.0 GPA and hold a teaching assistantship. My academic background spans over a decade of university-level education across three countries, and I have been involved in formal teaching and tutoring since 2015. I have delivered guest lectures on engineering topics to undergraduate students, led laboratory sessions, and held regular office hours providing one-on-one academic support. Prior to my current position, I served as a teaching assistant at the University of Wyoming and King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals, where I supported students in mathematics, physics, and engineering sciences.
My tutoring approach centers on building genuine understanding rather than memorization. I work to identify where a student's conceptual gap lies, then construct explanations from first principles using real-world examples, a method I find particularly effective for mathematics and physics. I have worked with undergraduate and graduate students in both classroom and one-on-one settings, adapting my communication style to suit different learning backgrounds and levels of prior knowledge. I also have experience helping students prepare for graduate admissions exams, particularly the quantitative reasoning sections of the GRE.
I am fluent in both English and Arabic, which allows me to support a broader range of students. With 10 peer-reviewed publications and years of research experience, I bring a depth of subject knowledge that I translate into clear, patient, and effective instruction. I am committed to helping students build confidence and achieve their academic goals.
