Research Engineer by profession with a 2-year mini-PhD degree in Engineering from the National University of Singapore (NUS) and a B.S. undergraduate engineering degree from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC), both of which are ranked top 5 globally in their respective fields. The scope of my curriculum spans a range of physical, biological, and mathematical topics that culminate in a thorough understanding of STEM topics, and have over 2000+ hours of tutoring experience with various on-site companies.

Professional experience is rooted in education, with 5+ years of AP and college-level teaching experience at high school and university campuses. This includes instruction, curriculum development, and university teaching assistance in STEM courses. Expertise lies in the instruction of high school and college-level Physics (Mechanics), Environmental Science & Engineering, Precalculus/Trigonometry, SAT, and College Admissions Counseling.

Even students who are more tuned in with humanities and social sciences love my math courses! I keep things colorful, well-animated, and easy to understand. School life in north Chicago can be tough. With a tutor like myself by your side guiding you, even your more hated and difficult courses will feel like a breeze!

Farsi

I am a Persian-American living in California who has excellent proficiency in both speaking and listening ~ an excellent opportunity for those who want relaxed, casual conversations in Farsi / Persian to sharpen their senses with the language and be able to relate to Iranian family members or students in the region. I also have basic familiarity with reading and writing, for those who wish to learn the basics (and even write their name!) Have experience in teaching the language on other platforms and would love to continue efforts on Wyzant.

Flexible and knowledgeable tutor!

I have had Brett as my AP Physics C Mechanics tutor for almost 6 months now and I have loved every session. He is always very understanding of where I'm struggling and helps me understand it thoroughly by doing practice problem and using visuals. He has helped me get more confident in the physics skills and it definitely shows when I talk to others and do tests.
