I'm Salim Kortobi, and I graduated Summa Cum Laude with a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, along with minors in Engineering Design Graphics and Manufacturing Engineering Technology. My passion for math and science, coupled with my love for building and creating, naturally led me to this field.

Throughout my education, I discovered that the classes I appreciated the most were not necessarily the easiest, but those taught by engaging and passionate professors. These educators made learning enjoyable and easy to understand, often going the extra mile to help when needed.

I strive to bring this same enthusiasm and dedication to my tutoring. As an IXL-certified tutor, I have access to a comprehensive platform that allows me to customize lessons, track progress, and provide targeted practice in real-time. This ensures that each session is aligned with the student’s specific learning goals.

My goal is to make learning a pleasant and rewarding experience. I tailor my lessons to each student's unique learning style, whether they prefer straightforward explanations or a deeper exploration of concepts. I am very patient and provide a fun and informative learning experience while giving my students all the tools they need to succeed.

Salim was an amazing tutor

Salim helped me with a SolidWorks assignment. Not only was he extremely knowledgeable on the matter, but he was extremely helpful with breaking down the steps and making sure I understood the certain functions and tools we utilized for the assignment. He was really diligent. It was amazing how much he packed into an hour session. While working to schedule an appointment, he was very flexible and accommodating. I really enjoyed my session with Salim, and I plan to continue receiving tutoring from him.

amazing!

I have no solidworks background and the future was looking bleak but his method and approach far surpasses any tutor I’ve had in the past and now it truly feels like I can conquer the software!

Amazing solidworks tutor!

My daughter needed help with solidworks and the Weldments tool. Salim is a great teacher. Thanks for getting her though a nightmare project! And she also asked for help with some solidworks problems on another session. Salim laid out the problems in a way that made them very clear. She’ll be back for more help for sure!

BEST SOLIDWORKS TUTOR

Here's the thing I usually am not the type to leave reviews but this man knows his stuff. He's really good at solidworks. I finished making my can opener and had to assemble it but the sizes were off. Salim quickly helped me and went through all the steps on how to do it. He even explained how a loft works and it wasn't even part of my assignment. He is a very kind and helpful tutor and you will learn A LOT from him. If you need help with solidworks, he is THE GUY!!!!

Amazing tutor

Super friendly and helpful! Was extremely patient and professional with me and helped me get what would've taken several days worth of work on my own done in just a few hours. Would definitely recommend.
