Electrical Engineer experienced in High Level Math

Kevin P.

I am an Electrical Engineering graduate from NJIT, currently working in the electrical field, with a strong background in mathematics, physics, and problem-solving. My education included extensive coursework in algebra, trigonometry, calculus, differential equations, and engineering mathematics, which I apply in real-world technical settings. This foundation enables me to tutor a wide range of math and science subjects, explaining not only how to solve problems but also why the methods work.

I have several years of informal tutoring experience working one-on-one, both in person and virtually, with students of different ages and backgrounds. I have helped elementary school students, including my younger brother and neighborhood students, build strong foundations in arithmetic, fractions, and problem-solving. I have also assisted middle school and high school students—relatives and peers—with algebra, geometry, and pre-calculus by breaking down concepts into manageable steps. In college and professional settings, I have supported classmates, coworkers, and colleagues with calculus and advanced technical topics, adapting my explanations to each person’s level of understanding.

My teaching approach emphasizes patience, clarity, and confidence-building. I work through practice problems step by step, checking for understanding at each stage to ensure the reasoning is clear and that students feel comfortable asking questions. I then transition to guided practice, where students solve similar problems with support, before encouraging independent problem-solving. I tailor each lesson to the student’s needs using real-world examples, visuals, and targeted practice. My goal is to create a supportive learning environment that reduces anxiety around math and builds lasting confidence and independence.
