About Akira


Bio

I am a junior Computer Engineering student at the University of Miami with a strong background in math, physics, and computer science. My coursework has taken me through advanced programming in C++ and Python, embedded systems, and data analysis, as well as a comprehensive study of calculus and physics. That mix of theory and hands-on problem solving gives me the flexibility to tutor across a wide range of STEM subjects and explain tough ideas in ways that actually click.

I am a junior Computer Engineering student at the University of Miami with a strong background in math, physics, and computer science. My coursework has taken me through advanced programming in C++ and Python, embedded systems, and data analysis, as well as a comprehensive study of calculus and physics. That mix of theory and hands-on problem solving gives me the flexibility to tutor across a wide range of STEM subjects and explain tough ideas in ways that actually click.

I started tutoring my first year at UM and have worked with more than 20 students each semester since then, mainly in Physics I & II, Calculus, and Computer Science. What I've learned is that every student needs something a little different. Some want step-by-step breakdowns, others just need help seeing the big picture. I focus on making complicated material feel approachable and building confidence so students can tackle challenges on their own. Many students have told me that my explanations make even the most complex topics feel manageable.

My teaching style is patient, interactive, and goal-oriented. I encourage students to ask questions and think through problems rather than just memorize formulas. In math and physics, I walk through examples carefully and point out shortcuts and common mistakes. In programming, I put extra emphasis on debugging, algorithmic thinking, and clean coding practices in C++ and Python. I also like showing how concepts from different classes connect. It helps students realize they're building a toolkit, not just checking boxes for grades.

At the end of the day, my goal is to help students do more than just pass their classes. I want them to feel confident, independent, and ready to take on whatever comes next. Whether it's preparing for an exam, completing a challenging assignment, or just reinforcing the basics, I'm committed to ensuring my students walk away with real skills and a stronger sense of, "I can do this."

ACT Math

ACT Math

I’m a junior studying Computer Engineering at the University of Miami with a perfect 36 on the Math ACT and a strong foundation in physics, digital logic, and mathematical reasoning. I scored a 5 on both the AP Physics and AP Computer Science A exams and have completed University Physics I and II. As an experienced tutor, I specialize in breaking down tough math concepts into clear, confidence-building steps tailored to each student’s needs. Whether it’s geometry, algebra, or ACT-style word problems, I help students master the logic and strategy behind every question.
C++

C++

I am a Computer Engineering student at the University of Miami with extensive experience in C++ programming, data structures, and algorithms. I have completed projects involving graph pathfinding, binary trees, and file parsing, as well as low-level coding on embedded systems. I have tutored college students in C++ and enjoy breaking down complex concepts like pointers, memory management, and debugging into simple steps. My goal is to help students not only complete assignments but also gain the confidence to write and understand their own code.
Computer Engineering

Computer Engineering

I am currently pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering at the University of Miami, where I focus on both hardware and software systems. My experience includes projects in C++, Python, data structures, algorithms, and embedded systems, as well as coursework in physics and advanced mathematics. I have tutored college and high school students in subjects ranging from programming and circuits to calculus and physics. My teaching style is step-by-step and interactive, making even the most technical concepts approachable and understandable.
Computer Science

Computer Science

I am a Computer Engineering student at the University of Miami with extensive experience in computer science fundamentals, programming, and data structures. My projects include implementing graph algorithms (BFS, DFS, Dijkstra), tree-based data structures, and file-parsing programs in C++ and Python. I have tutored college and high school students in coding, debugging, and algorithm design, helping them succeed in both coursework and independent projects. My approach is to guide students step by step, ensuring they not only complete assignments but also build strong problem-solving skills for the future.
Physics

Physics

I’m a junior studying Computer Engineering at the University of Miami with a strong background in math and physics. In high school, I took both AP Physics 1 and AP Physics 2 during my senior year, scoring a 5 on Physics 1 and a 4 on Physics 2. Since then, I’ve completed university-level courses in mechanics, electricity and magnetism, and modern physics. I’ve also helped high school and college students prepare for exams, focusing on step-by-step problem solving and clear explanations.
