I help students and professionals work through complex technical problems in engineering, physics, AI, Python, and data science in a clear and structured way. I hold a PhD in Engineering Physics and have more than ten years of experience supporting high school students, undergraduate and graduate engineers, and professionals working on advanced coursework, exams, and technical projects.

Many of the students I work with are capable but feel stuck when dealing with difficult subjects such as thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, transport phenomena, structural analysis, or advanced mathematical concepts. Others come to me while preparing for the FE exam, working on capstone projects, simulation-based work, or research tasks that require both conceptual understanding and technical implementation. My role is to help break these problems into manageable steps and provide a clear path forward.

My approach is highly structured and focused on building a repeatable problem-solving method. I combine intuition with the underlying mathematics, organize each problem step-by-step, and help students recognize patterns so they can approach new problems independently. I also provide guidance on project organization, technical workflows, and how to approach complex assignments efficiently.

I frequently work with students in advanced or uncommon technical situations where it can be difficult to find the right support. This includes graduate-level engineering topics, computational work in Python or MATLAB, data science and AI-related projects, and research or capstone development. My goal is not only to help you complete the immediate task, but to help you build confidence and a strong framework for solving complex problems on your own.

Absolute Game Changer for Information Theory!

I'm in my last year of Electrical Engineering grad school, and I was really struggling to tie all of the concepts in Information Theory together. I've taken several courses rooted in probability theory, and my experience is that professors for those subjects fall in two camps: 1) those that excel at the math, and can't explain the intuition behind it, and 2) those that can explain the intuition, but can't apply the math to save their lives. Knowing the above, I despaired at the idea of finding a tutor. I needed someone who could explain the way to approach the problems and the intuition behind them, AND I needed the math. Oh, and if they were punctual, organized, good communicators, and just generally personable, that'd be really nice. However, my expectations were low. At best, finding someone who could meet my main criteria (help me understand information theory) would be a miracle I thought. Man, I was blown away by Dr. Chandra! He nailed every single one of the above criteria. I sent him the homework I was struggling with and a few days later he showed up to our lesson with a neatly typed up homework package that re-wrote each problem in plain language, identified the key principles behind them, provided a step-by-step solution, and even highlighted major conceptual take-away from each problem. We spent the lesson walking through each problem, pausing occasionally to clarify a concept or draw out a process when I didn't understand. Add in the fact he was on-time, responsive to chats, and pleasant, and I just couldn't believe my luck! It is not an understatement to say that in the space of a week I went from dreading information theory homework to looking forward to it. My only regret is that I didn't find him sooner. The first couple years of grad school would have been significantly less stressful with his help. If you're an older student/working- professional, and you're looking for someone who understands the subject and exhibits a high-level of professionalism, go with Dr. Chandra. He is that rare gem in the engineering field - someone who can take abstract, involved concepts, and make them digestible for everyone.

He not only showed me what to do but also explained why each step mattered, which helped me understand the material much better. After our session, I was able to complete the rest of the assignment on my own with confidence. He is patient, knowledgeable, and very supportive. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who needs help with SAP or data-related assignments.

Mira, 3 lessons with Chandra

Extremely knowledgeable about computational probability

Dr. Chandra was extremely helpful in guiding me through a complex assignment involving the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm, Monte Carlo integration, and MATLAB implementation. What stood out most was his ability to break down the entire workflow in a clear, structured way. We went through the problem step-by-step, including understanding the theory behind the algorithm, implementing both local and global proposals, and interpreting results such as acceptance rates, effective sample size, and coefficient of variation. He also helped clarify how the MATLAB code works in detail, which made it much easier to troubleshoot and understand the logic rather than just follow steps mechanically. By the end of the session, I had a much stronger understanding of both the theoretical concepts and their practical application. I would highly recommend him to anyone working on advanced topics in applied mathematics, MCMC methods, or computational assignments.

Very knowledgeable

I had a great first session with Dr. Joshi and found it immediately helpful. I reached out because I am transitioning into a new client-facing technical role and wanted support with public speaking, live demos, and communicating more confidently in professional settings. In our session, we focused on demo-style communication and worked on improving my pacing, structure, and clarity. What I found especially valuable was how practical the session was. Dr. Joshi gave me a simple structure to organize my explanations more clearly and helped me make real-time adjustments that immediately improved how I presented technical information. By the second round of practice, I could already feel a difference in my delivery and composure. He is very thoughtful, structured, and encouraging, and the session felt directly applicable to the kinds of situations I will face in my new role. I’m looking forward to continuing to work with him on presentation skills, live demos, and client-facing communication. I would definitely recommend him to other professionals who want to become more confident and effective communicators.

Anthony, 2 lessons with Chandra
Tutor responded:

Thank you, Anthony—I really appreciate your thoughtful feedback. You’re approaching this transition in exactly the right way. You already have strong technical depth, and now it’s just about structuring and delivering that knowledge in a way that feels clear and confident in client-facing settings. I’m glad the session felt practical and immediately applicable—that’s always the goal. You picked up the structure and adjustments very quickly, and the improvement between your first and second run was noticeable. I’m looking forward to continuing our work together, especially as we move into more real-world scenarios like live demos and client interactions. We’ll keep building this step by step so it becomes natural for you in your new role. Thanks again, and I appreciate the recommendation.

Knowledgable and patient tutor

Dr. Joshi helped me prepare for my Service Operations Design and Analysis midterm with very little time before the exam. I had missed several lectures due to illness and was feeling behind, but he explained the key concepts clearly and walked through the homework problems step by step so I could understand the reasoning behind the solutions. He was very patient and structured the session to focus on the most important topics likely to appear on the exam. The study materials and explanations he provided made the concepts much easier to follow, even under time pressure. I would definitely recommend him to students who need help preparing for engineering or operations research courses.

Knowledgeable and explains everything.

I am currently a student at NYU studying Engineering, and I am enrolled in an LabVIEW programming course that includes weekly assignments and a semester project. The course counts for a large portion of my grade and was initially very challenging because LabVIEW combines graphical programming, logic design, debugging, and data flow concepts that were completely new to me. Before working with Dr. Joshi, I struggled to understand how block diagrams, loops, shift registers, and data connections worked together. The assignments felt complex and difficult to complete independently. Dr. Joshi helped me learn the material in a clear and structured way. Instead of just solving problems, he provided step-by-step guidance, simplified explanations, and detailed build instructions that made complex LabVIEW concepts easy to follow. His approach focuses on understanding program architecture, debugging methods, and developing confidence in building VIs correctly. With his help, I learned how to systematically debug errors, organize LabVIEW programs properly, and complete assignments with confidence. I now understand how to approach LabVIEW problems logically rather than feeling lost when errors appear. I highly recommend Dr. Joshi to anyone taking LabVIEW or technical engineering courses. He is patient, highly knowledgeable, and explains difficult concepts in a practical and easy-to-understand way.

Asheesh, 4 lessons with Chandra
Tutor responded:

Thank you so much, Asheesh! I'm really glad to hear that the step-by-step approach made LabVIEW clearer for you and that you feel confident tackling the assignments now. You put in great effort, and it’s been a pleasure working with you.

Civil Engineering Tutor

handra has been helping me with CE 130 Soil Mechanics, and the sessions have been extremely helpful—especially because I needed to catch up quickly mid-semester. He explains concepts clearly and also helps a lot with interpreting the question and setting up the solution correctly (which was the hardest part for me). We worked through problems on stresses in soils (total stress, pore pressure, effective stress, and how the water table affects them) and also settlement/consolidation topics (normally consolidated vs. preconsolidated clay, consolidation settlement, and how to approach consolidation time questions). He breaks everything down step-by-step, checks my understanding, and shows me a consistent method so I can solve similar problems on my own. He is organized, supportive, and efficient with time, and he helped me feel much more confident going into homework and exams. I would definitely recommend him to anyone taking Soil Mechanics or needing help with statics/structures concepts applied to geotechnical problems.
