Rutgers Engineering Graduate | Math & Chemistry Tutor | Clear, St

Aqil F.

I am a graduate of Rutgers University where I earned a Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering, and I currently work full-time as a software engineer at a major financial institution. Throughout my academic journey, I built a strong foundation in mathematics, chemistry, and computer science, which I now apply both professionally and when helping students understand complex topics in a clear and structured way. My technical background has strengthened my ability to break down difficult concepts into simpler, more intuitive steps that students can follow with confidence.

I have experience helping students in both informal and structured settings, including working one-on-one with peers during my time in college to explain topics in calculus, chemistry, and programming fundamentals. My approach focuses on identifying gaps in understanding and rebuilding concepts from the ground up rather than memorization. I find that students benefit most when they are guided through problem-solving methods step-by-step while also being encouraged to think independently.

When working with students, I typically tailor my sessions to their individual needs, whether that involves homework support, test preparation, or strengthening foundational skills in math and chemistry. I have worked with high school and early college-level students, and I aim to create a supportive environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and learning at their own pace. My goal is not only to help students improve their grades, but also to help them build long-term confidence in problem solving and analytical thinking.
