About Baseem


Bio

I am a UC Berkeley graduate with a B.Sc in Chemical Engineering (concentrated in Materials Science and Engineering) and a minor in Chemistry.

I have been tutoring since I was a freshman in high school, and during my years as an undergraduate at Berkeley, I was given the opportunity to work as a university-employed tutor for the College of Engineering's Center for Access to Engineering Excellence (CAEE), where I taught coursework ranging from multi-variable calculus and linear algebra to...

I am a UC Berkeley graduate with a B.Sc in Chemical Engineering (concentrated in Materials Science and Engineering) and a minor in Chemistry.

I have been tutoring since I was a freshman in high school, and during my years as an undergraduate at Berkeley, I was given the opportunity to work as a university-employed tutor for the College of Engineering's Center for Access to Engineering Excellence (CAEE), where I taught coursework ranging from multi-variable calculus and linear algebra to organic chemistry and quantum mechanics. The Center stresses the importance of cordial relations between students and tutors as one of its core values, and it's one of several that I've taken to heart to improve the tutoring experience.

Aside from the courses explicitly advertised on my profile, I also offer aid with complex analysis, tensor calculus, classical/quantum field theory and Lagrangian mechanics, reaction engineering, transport phenomena, statistical mechanics, special/general relativity, and process control theory.

If you are interesting in hiring me as your tutor, you will be given a copy of the blackboard that we worked on at the end of each session to keep for your studies/review. Additionally, if an established student feels that they only have a couple of brief questions that do not necessarily warrant formalizing an entire session, they may request a complimentary consultation at any time (at the tutor's discretion), free of charge! Students are encouraged to seek this option, though please be advised that it should be used conservatively, and only after amiable relations have been established.

Thank you for taking the time to consider seeking me as a tutor, and I eagerly look forward to working together with you in the future!

Excellent Tutor!

Baseem was very knowledgeable about control systems. The online tools he used to teach are very very good. He made a pdf outlining every lesson that I could use later on to study. After I failed my midterm his support helped me get an A in my control systems class. He is the only tutor that would answer my questions outside of our tutoring hours, and this on the spot helps support and reinforce what he taught in our sessions. I could not have done this well without his support, he actually cared about my success.

Amazing at Linear Algebra

I’ve been struggling with my linear algebra course and Baseem made things much more clear. It was also very helpful that he LaTeXed the solutions to file I was working on and sent me the pdf after our lesson. Highly recommend!

Ralfs, 1 lesson with Baseem

great tutor

Extremely knowledgeable about every subject I needed help with and great at clearly explaining the subject. Great for physics majors!

Frederick, 18 lessons with Baseem

So thankful.

I am so thankful for Baseem! Due to his hard work, diligence, and patience with me, I'll likely pass my course in General Relativity this term. I appreciate both his content knowledge and his teaching methods.

The best tutor on Wyzant

Baseem is the prime example of the best tutor on this platform. Baseem took the time to really explain such a difficult subject to me and one that I have been constantly failing. He dissected each individual problem with each individual component and really made me understand the homework assignment. He is the best tutor on here that actually helps

A Kind Expert!

Baseem is very patient and knowledgeable in various fields. He explains difficult-to-grasp concepts well, ensuring that I understand. Having the notes he sends out after every session is also extremely helpful. I aim to work with Baseem for as long as I can! Thanks to him, I have achieved A's in all of my exams. Notably, as a busy graduate student who needs to learn deeply and efficiently, Baseem has been the most helpful and best tutor I have ever had.

One of the best educators I've ever had

I'm a student at an Ivy League school and I've come across a lot of good teachers, but Baseem is one of the best educators I've had, period. We're working on Tensor calculus and LaGrangian mechanics together and he teaches these subjects incredibly intuitively. He also makes very helpful worksheets and homeworks, and I'm blown away by how above and beyond he goes. I could not recommend Baseem more.

Aun, 41 lessons with Baseem

born teacher

Excellent fund of knowledge, excellent illustrations and use of white board, very patient instructor. He is a born teacher; you can’t learn to do what he does.

Robert, 9 lessons with Baseem

VERY Knowledgeable!

What made the experience great is that he knows how to derive lots of formulas, which is very helpful to minimize number of formulas to study to general formulas inclusive to all cases.

Raghad, 19 lessons with Baseem

Amazing Teacher

Baseem was able to clear up a lot of my confusion in just one session. He made things simple to understand and obviously has a deep understanding of quantum mechanics. I definitely will be scheduling more sessions in the near future!
