Hello Students! My name is Alvaro and I am a Civil/Structural Engineer with a PhD in Wind Engineering. I've spent the last 26 years in the University industry working with Engineering, Programming and Material sciences. During my college years, my Professors had a a good technique for teaching and this was made through regular tutorial sessions and constant and friendly communication with the student.
Their technique was based in dividing complicated subjects into smaller and simpler parts so that the student took one part at a time and learn it through solving several exercises until they were able to put all the parts together and understand the whole concept at the end. The students were so much motivated by this approach that they went ahead and loved the challenge to go solving problems on their own and became experts at the field. I have helped the student find a great confidence within themselves in working at the subject using this technique. I have always seen positive results and I enjoy seeing students succeed.

I have tutoring experience in Mathematics, Calculus, Statistics, Programming and Physics with sessions for groups of 5 to 10 students at University graduate level. I have helped them in 5 Engineering subjects to help them understand through practice workshops and examples. I was always available to them and assisting them with their doubts and questions. I held online sessions to help them clarify problems with good examples and neat solutions so that they could easily visualize and recognize the complexity of the question.

I want to help students grow a love for Science and Engineering so that they can be great professionals in the industry. I will open my mind and knowledge database and share my resources to them so they can become effective problem solvers. I am very flexible and easy to reach and will always provide fast responses. Please feel free to contact me with additional questions to schedule a lesson and I will be happy to assist you.
