"Gotta love learning" - Mech Eng Grad

Piero C.

I'm a Mechanical Engineering graduate from the University of New Orleans (2024) with a passion for making challenging subjects like calculus, physics, and engineering make sense. I entered college on a full TOPS scholarship and went on to pass the NCEES FE Exam in 2025 — both reflect my strong academic foundation and commitment to understanding complex material. My favorite coursework included dynamics, where I earned straight A's on every test and exam. That class deepened my appreciation for how formulas connect to real-world motion — and it's exactly that kind of "why" that I love helping students discover.

I've been informally tutoring for years, from helping my high school classmates with algebra and geometry to supporting college peers through calculus, statics, and linear algebra. I also have six siblings, so I've had plenty of practice explaining things clearly and patiently to different learning styles. Whether working one-on-one or in small groups, I focus on breaking problems into manageable steps, highlighting fundamental concepts, and finding patterns until we reach that confidence-building "aha" moment. From there, we practice until the learning is locked in.

What sets me apart is my engineering background and professional exam experience — I don't just know the material, I understand how it applies in the real world. I work with high school and college students in subjects involving math, physics, and engineering. My goal is to create a supportive, judgment-free space where students feel comfortable asking questions and working through challenges until they are confident with the material on their own.
