Helpful with Math, Physics and Engineering

Sergio L.

I am a math educator, and science enthusiast. My background ranges from being a Marine Corps wrench-turning technician, to engineering manager in heavy machinery and manufacturing. I am husband and a father of two small children.

I have worked with students of all ages for over 10 years. I love helping students not hate math. I help them overcome their learning difficulties by giving examples, analogies, or simply rewording what the teacher/professor has said in order to help others understand difficult subjects. I find teaching math and physics to someone who feels reluctant about these subjects a joy and privilege because over time the students I work with catch up quickly and often develop a competitive edge that gives them them a huge advantage . My students who do one on one tutoring with me often come to understand and even appreciate math inside a classroom and outside in life.

When it comes to math, I know it can be abstract and just plain difficult to understand; I try to relate abstract math to real world scenarios or applications in science and engineering, math can be understood with real examples. In my experience tutoring, I have crafted very useful examples or analogies to help students understand difficult concepts

My passion for math education comes from being a Physics enthusiast, physics is in everyday life, a good teacher can show this and have the student's experience and reasoning skills to understand mathematical physics. Students rely on relatable everyday examples to help the quantitative math that is involved in physics.

I am very eager to help students truly learn, understand, and apply the math and science to everyday life so that the more they understand, the less they have to memorize.
