Professional Engineer | Build Confidence for Exams

Christian M.

Don’t wait until your first midterm to start tutoring. After a poor midterm, confidence often drops sharply, and problems you should be able to solve can suddenly feel much harder. My role is to help you regain confidence by learning how to approach problems clearly and consistently.

I am a Professional Engineer with over 10 years of industry experience, including work with NASA supporting the Artemis program, as well as Lockheed Martin and Mosaic. My background spans aerospace, government, military, chemical manufacturing, and oil and gas, giving me a practical understanding of how core engineering principles are applied in real systems—not just textbooks.

I earned my Mechanical Engineering degree Magna Cum Laude from the University of South Florida and have completed the same core engineering courses many students find challenging. I understand how quickly confidence can fall after the first exam and how important it is to regain footing early in the semester.

I have over 2.5 years of tutoring experience, working one-on-one with students to recover after difficult exams, close foundational gaps, and build reliable problem-solving habits. My tutoring focuses on:

Understanding why equations work

Setting up problems correctly and consistently

Developing repeatable methods you can trust during exams

Through Wyzant’s platform, we can ensure a good fit while I learn about your goals and challenges. I tailor each session to your background and pace, whether you’re rebuilding confidence or preparing ahead of upcoming exams.

My goal is not to make you dependent on tutoring, but to help you trust your own thinking and walk into exams with confidence.

Courses I specialize in include:

Mechanical & General Engineering:
Statics, Dynamics, Mechanics of Solids, Thermodynamics, Fluid Statics, Fluid Dynamics, Heat Transfer, Materials, Manufacturing Processes, Composite Materials, Compressible Flow

Civil Engineering:
Structural Analysis, Hydraulics / Open Channel Flow, Geotechnical Engineering
