Cooking

Cooking

I learned to cook at a very young age, where I assisted my mother cooking for a large extended family. In addition, I am familiar with cooking from various cultures and often add my own touches to a variety of cuisines. I can quickly compliment meals with various side dishes. I am clean, organized, and plan out my meals ahead of time, preferably with the most fresh ingredients available. I have worked in family restaurant businesses for over 10 years. I can plan the simplest of meals all the way to planning for large events of 100+ people. I have taught hands-on cooking lessons in my home and elsewhere. I have taught simple cooking classes with simpler ingredients for children ages 8+. I have taken several Food Safety related courses and teach my student's the do's and dont's of cooking processes and proper food storage.

Great engineering knowledge and kind teacher

We went through engineering distillation and she was able to break down the concepts into basics for me and that was so helpful. I rdcommend you reach out to this tutor. Thank you!

Great cooking tutor, tons of fun. Lovely person. Highly recommend!.

We booked a family cooking lesson with Fatina, for a total of 7 people including 3 teenaged kids. Fatina was engaged from the moment we hired her in menu and grocery planning, making sure we would have everything we needed. When she arrived, she taught us a lot about cooking technique, cooking chemistry, how to use various items in our kitchen, + how to keep our food clean and healthy. She kept the kids and the adults entertained and busy, including the near 90-year old grandma of the family, and it was so refreshing to see three kids learning something new and have fun together while not picking up their screens for even a minute. At the end of the night, we had three great main courses for dinner, with something that every family member had requested in advance and can make in the future. And everybody learned new and useful life skills. As a tutor, Fatina is very sweet, clear, informative, fun, and completely unflappable. 8 inexperienced people working in the kitchen, including 3 teenagers, did not phase her for a minute. We all had a great night together and will remember the night with grandma and the grandkids fondly ! Thanks Fatina !!!

COMSOL

Fatina went above and beyond in order to help me through my COMSOL assignment. She was also very patient and helpful. I would definitely recommend her to other students looking to seek help not only with COMSOL other STEM related subjects.

Fantastic Tutor

Fatina is a fantastic tutor. She figured out exactly what my sister needed help with and created a schedule to teach her and support her school's curriculum. If she's still doing this next year I will absolutely request her services again.
