Despite the fact that I can offer assistance in many subjects to students of all ages, my academic credentials and background which include two Master of Science degrees and several years of teaching experience at a college level make me more inclined to work with college and advanced high school students on science (mathematics, physics, chemistry, and biology) as well as standardized test preparation (ACT, SAT, GRE, GMAT, and MCAT) and academic competition exams. Also, I can work with students on one-to-one basis especially if personal attention or a boost in confidence is needed or in small groups. In either case, I try to create a friendly atmosphere that is conducive to learning. My belief is that students can have a more fulfilling and engaging tutorial experience when they feel that they receive personal attention not from a person they should fear but rather from a friend who is there to help.

The ultimate goal of seeking private tutoring by students is learning. Therefore, all activities during a tutorial session should revolve around this goal. In my first tutoring session with any student I try to assess his/her knowledge of the basic or key concepts of the subject matter so I can build on what he/she already knows and adjust my way of explaining material to match the need and learning style of the student. I then focus on building confidence by encouraging and motivating students to think for themselves and be active learners, and follow that by challenging students to unleash their potential to turn what might be their least favorite subject into their most favorite one.

One of my strong tutoring techniques is the extensive use of technology and visual aids like drawing pictures or illustrative diagrams to make a concept clearer. And to make the tutoring experience even more exciting and stimulating, I frequently ask the students to give an example that is similar to a one just discussed. Also, when solving a problem, I require them to justify their answer and explain how and why they think it makes sense. In addition to that and at the end of each tutoring session, I usually leave the student with a question or two that test their understanding of the main concepts covered in that particular session and prepare them for the next session.

I have helped many students achieve their academic goals and I will have the pleasure to help you too. If you have a question, please do not hesitate to contact me.

His passion and mastery of the topic is clear

Aladdin is an outstanding tutor, he is teaching my son general chemistry, college level, he explained concepts very well, most importantly made my son enjoys chemistry. Very kind, absolutely the best.

Nihad, 21 lessons with Aladdin

Great Chem 124 tutor

We covered a new worksheet dealing with quantum mechanics. Aladdin explained the workings of frequency, wavelength, electromagnetic spectrum use, orbitals, and quantum numbers.

Autumn, 35 lessons with Aladdin

Very smart guy

Very smart guy and knew his stuff really well! We covered a good amount of material in an hour, and I walked away feeling from my first tutoring session with Aladdin feeling much more confident/excited about learning the material than before.

Yuchen, 5 lessons with Aladdin

Online tutoring

I have been working with Aladdin for a year now on biology and chemistry online. At first at felt skeptical because I wasn't sure how an online session would work and if I would be able grasp the information than I would in a face to face session. Aladdin is prepared for every session with additional practice problems, a white board to elaborate tough subjects. He also helps break hard topic into simpler problems which makes it understanding. On my biology test I was able to get A's as well as my last chemistry exam.

Ariel, 19 lessons with Aladdin

JUST THE BEST

I cannot tell you how great he is. My college daughter takes Calc 1, and he is hands down the best tutor ever. Attentive, follows up on lessons and makes sure she understands before he leaves. Totally the BEST tutor she has ever had.

Lisa, 80 lessons with Aladdin

Patient and helpful teacher

Calculus I homework review and major concepts reinforcement was successful. We started and finished promptly on time and worked quickly through the whole session.

Spence, 3 lessons with Aladdin

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

Aladdin taught Statistics. He was patient in answering questions and generally in command of what he taught. He was also considerate of people and time conscious. Excellent tutor.

Fantastic Teacher, Very Persistent!

Aladdin is a wonderful teacher and he makes learning enjoyable. One of those teachers that make you look forward to the next lesson and want more. He never gives up on you and will try to teach you something in many different ways until you get it. He’s very supportive and wants the best for his students. Overall an amazing personality to work with! And no matter the subject with him you’re guaranteed to succeed! Specifically in ACT Math, Aladdin is very knowledgeable and has a great way of making you learn. I highly recommend him for anything math related and for other subjects as well :)
