Algebra 1

Algebra 1

I have tutored algebra to students through WyzAnt for more than two years. My degrees in electrical and computer engineering as well as the professional experience I continue to gain in my career as a systems integration engineer are ample qualifications to tutor algebra. I teach the fundamentals of algebra and provide sufficient practice problems to reinforce the fundamentals. When I teach, I draw on the Socratic method and emphasize the deductive and inductive reasoning skills that are important to understanding algebra.
Algebra 2

Algebra 2

I work full-time as a systems integration engineer and graduated with two degrees in engineering: electrical and computer engineering. The concepts and problems that are in Algebra 2 lay the foundations for the kind of higher level mathematics that I have used in my career and in university. I am a problem-solver and I am ready to help you tackle any problem that you may encounter in this subject.
AutoCAD

AutoCAD

I have 4+ years of experience designing and generating electrical schematics for control panels for various industries using AutoCAD and AutoCAD electrical.
Calculus

Calculus

I have been using differential and integral calculus of single and multiple variable(s) ever since high school and especially as an electrical engineering student. I have taken many engineering courses that apply calculus to solving problems including linear time-invariant systems, control systems and RLC circuits. I can help you whether you are learning calculus for the first time in high school or college or if you're taking an engineering course and you need help with the calculus that is required to solve problems. I have taken the AP Calculus AB exam in high school and made a 5 and I have learned everything that is on the BC exam from my classes in college, so if you need AP test review, I can help with that.
Computer Engineering

Computer Engineering

I work as a systems integration engineer and design human machine interfaces and supervisory control and data acquisition systems. I finished a bachelor of science in computer engineering at NC State. During that time, I worked on embedded systems, logic design with Verilog, assembly programming and networking.
Computer Programming

Computer Programming

Licensed professional control systems engineer with 4+ years experience. Bachelors degrees in computer engineering and electrical engineering. Experience and education with the following languages: C, Java, Python, Assembly, SQL.
Computer Science

Computer Science

As a rising senior in electrical and computer engineering, I have a strong computer science and programming background. I started with Python 5+ years ago in high school and quickly got my feet wet with Java too. In college, I took introduction to computer systems in which I learned assembly language and logic design. Then I took computer systems programming in which I learned the C language and how it is assembled into machine language instructions, so I know computer science at the low level (close to the machine level) as well as the high level (algorithms, data structures).
Discrete Math

Discrete Math

In college, I have completed calculus II and III as well as Discrete Math for Computer Scientists. I have a deep understanding of both pure and applied mathematics due to the intense mathematical requirements of electrical engineering.
Electrical Engineering

Electrical Engineering

I am a rising senior in Electrical Engineering at NC State University. I have taken a majority of the core undergraduate courses in Electrical Engineering. I can offer help with electric circuits, microelectronics, linear systems, logic circuits (sequential and combinational), differential equations, algebra, programming in C and LC3.
Linux

Linux

As a licensed professional engineer in the control systems industry, I have experience using Linux OS's using RedHat Linux, Ubuntu, etc. in the GUI and the CLI.
Logic

Logic

Last semester, I took Logic Design Principles in which I learned how to analyze and design combinational and sequential logic circuits. I have experience working in Logisim. As for mathematical logic, I took discrete math for computer scientists, so I know boolean algebra, proof writing, propositional and predicate calculus.
Networking (Computer)

Networking (Computer)

As a professional engineer in the control systems industry, I apply networking fundamentals and practices to setup, configure and optimize industrial managed switches and routers.
Python

Python

I have been writing scripts with Python for 5+ years. I am well versed in both Python 2. and 3. I am knowledgeable in the majority of Python's data types and their methods, its control structures and functions and most of the main modules. I have experience building and debugging complex programs in Python. Whether you need help with a program or are learning Python for the first time, I can help.
SQL

SQL

4+ years of experience designing tables/schemas/relationships, writing queries and views for reports, creating stored procedures, database maintenance, etc.
Statistics

Statistics

Last semester, I took Introduction to Probability and Distribution Theory, which is a calculus based statistics course. I can provide help in basic probability, conditional probability, independence, discrete probability distributions, continuous probability distributions, sampling distributions and the central limit theorem at a higher level. I have also taken AP Statistics, so I can also help with confidence intervals, tests of hypotheses, inferences based on two samples, ANOVA and linear regression.
Trigonometry

Trigonometry

As I have taken higher level engineering and mathematics courses in college, I have a very strong proficiency in trigonometry. There are so many different applications of trigonometry in engineering and physics and thus trigonometry is one of my core competencies. I can help with trigonometry at all levels including introductory trigonometry, geometry, calculus of trigonometric functions, trigonometry in electrical engineering and physics i.e. phasors, damped sinusoids, AC current, small signal models, etc.

Very helpful

Robert is very helpful, he takes the time to make sure you understand the material. If I didn't understand something he took the time to explain it to me. Robert was very patient with me. Robert was very knowledgeable of the material, he taught me a lot in our short session. I will definitely be utilizing his services again. I would recommend using him if you are struggling in your Stats class.

Robert understood concepts and was able to break down those concepts in such a way that could be learned by someone who struggles. Highly recommend Robert! He arrived early to the agreed upon location so that there was no problem finding each other. Very accommodating on time and location. Excellent experience!

Chris, 1 lesson with Robert

Experienced with high school Statistics

I can see the tutoring sessions that Robert has had with my son have helped him improve his attitude toward this subject in a positive way. The subject is being presented in a way that makes sense to a high school student. The one-on-one time with a tutor is absolutely the way to go with a tough subject like Stats.

Very pleased!

My daughter struggles in Math and is currently taking Algebra 1. Helping my daughter with homework has always been a struggle for me, but Robert seems to have recognize my daughter weakness and strengths and has been very successful in helping her complete homework assignments and in helping her study for her test. He is very patient in explaining problems to her and she is comfortable working with his style of tutoring. I am very pleased with his time flexibility, his fee and his encouragement he gives to my daughter. I plan to use him throughout the year.
