Dear potential students,
My name is Tyler, and I'm a Mechanical Engineer, Aerospace Graduate Student, and tutor specializing in Math, Physics, and Engineering. Whether you're preparing for your next test or exam, tackling challenging homework, or trying to build a stronger understanding of STEM subjects, my goal is to help you gain confidence in your own thought processes, not just memorize procedures.
I earned my B.S. in Mechanical Engineering with a 3.82 GPA from the University of Dayton and am currently pursuing my M.S. in Aerospace Engineering while working full time as an optomechanical engineer. As a practicing engineer, I use many of the same mathematical and engineering concepts that students encounter in the classroom, which allows me to connect theory to real-world applications rather than teaching in the abstract. I work with students ranging from high school through college, and I tutor a wide range of subjects, including algebra, geometry, trigonometry, precalculus, and calculus I, II, and III, as well as differential equations, physics, statics, dynamics, mechanical engineering, and CAD and engineering design.
Every student learns differently, so rather than simply giving answers, I focus on identifying where concepts become confusing and explaining them in a way that makes sense to you specifically. My philosophy is that there is always more than one way to learn any topic or subject, and I encourage questions, adapt my teaching style to your learning preferences, and work at a pace that builds both understanding and confidence rather than rushing through material.
Whether you're aiming to improve your grades, prepare for an upcoming exam, or strengthen your foundation for future STEM courses, I'd be happy to help you achieve your goals. I look forward to working with you!

Approved Subjects

ACT Math

ACT Math

I earned a 34 ACT score, giving me firsthand experience with the strategies and skills needed to succeed on the exam. Since then, I have earned a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering (3.82 GPA) and am currently pursuing an M.S. in Aerospace Engineering, building an extensive foundation in mathematics, problem solving, and analytical reasoning. I enjoy helping students strengthen the core concepts tested on the ACT while also teaching effective test-taking strategies, time management, and approaches to difficult questions. My goal is not only to help students improve their scores, but also to build the confidence they need to perform at their best on test day.
Algebra 1

Algebra 1

I have a strong foundation in algebra developed through advanced coursework in mathematics and engineering, where algebraic problem-solving is used every day. I earned a 34 ACT score, completed a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering (3.82 GPA), and am currently pursuing an M.S. in Aerospace Engineering. I enjoy helping students build confidence by strengthening fundamental algebra skills, developing logical problem-solving strategies, and creating a solid mathematical foundation for future courses.
Algebra 2

Algebra 2

Algebra II introduces many of the concepts that prepare students for higher-level mathematics, making a strong understanding especially important. After earning a 34 ACT, completing my B.S. in Mechanical Engineering (3.82 GPA), and beginning my M.S. in Aerospace Engineering, I have continued to apply algebra extensively through engineering coursework and professional practice. My goal is to help students understand the reasoning behind each concept so they can confidently solve unfamiliar problems and prepare for future success in precalculus, calculus, and STEM courses.
Calculus

Calculus

Calculus is one of the most important mathematical tools used throughout science and engineering, and it is a subject I continue to use regularly as a practicing mechanical engineer. I earned a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering (3.82 GPA) and am currently pursuing an M.S. in Aerospace Engineering, where advanced calculus remains an essential part of my studies. I enjoy helping students develop a deep understanding of limits, derivatives, integrals, and applications by breaking complex topics into manageable steps while connecting them to real-world engineering problems.
Geometry

Geometry

I earned my B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Dayton with a 3.84 GPA and am currently pursuing an M.S. in Aerospace Engineering. My engineering education required extensive use of geometry, trigonometry, algebra, and spatial reasoning. I have experience tutoring high-school and college students in math and specialize in breaking complex concepts into clear, manageable steps. I use diagrams, guided examples, and independent practice to help students understand geometric relationships and confidently solve unfamiliar problems.
Mechanical Engineering

Mechanical Engineering

I earned a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering (3.82 GPA) and am currently pursuing an M.S. in Aerospace Engineering while working as a Mechanical Engineer in the photonics industry. Through both my education and professional experience, I have applied core mechanical engineering concepts including statics, dynamics, mechanics of materials, machine design, engineering analysis, CAD, and engineering problem solving to real-world projects. My goal is to help students develop a strong conceptual understanding rather than simply memorize formulas. Whether you're preparing for an exam, working through homework, or struggling with difficult engineering concepts, I'll break complex topics into manageable steps and explain not only how to solve problems, but why the underlying principles work.
Physics

Physics

I have a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering with a 3.84 GPA and am currently pursuing my M.S. in Aerospace Engineering. My engineering coursework has given me a strong background in calculus-based physics, including mechanics, forces and motion, energy, momentum, electricity and magnetism, and other topics commonly covered in high school and college physics. I also regularly apply physics and mathematics in my engineering work and tutoring. I focus on helping students understand the reasoning behind equations rather than simply memorizing formulas, then reinforce each concept through practice problems.
Prealgebra

Prealgebra

I earned my B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Dayton with a 3.84 GPA and am currently pursuing an M.S. in Aerospace Engineering. I have experience tutoring students in Prealgebra, Algebra, and higher-level math courses. I explain foundational topics—including fractions, decimals, percentages, ratios, negative numbers, expressions, equations, and word problems—in clear, manageable steps. My lessons combine guided examples with independent practice to help students strengthen their fundamentals and approach Algebra with confidence.
Precalculus

Precalculus

I earned my B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Dayton with a 3.84 GPA and am currently pursuing an M.S. in Aerospace Engineering. I earned a 5 on the AP Calculus BC exam and an A in Multivariable Calculus, both of which required a strong command of precalculus. I have experience tutoring functions, trigonometry, exponentials, logarithms, graphing, and other foundational topics. I break concepts into clear steps and use guided examples followed by independent practice to prepare students for calculus and more advanced mathematics.
SAT Math

SAT Math

I have a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering with a 3.84 GPA and am currently pursuing my M.S. in Aerospace Engineering. I scored a 34 on the ACT, including a strong math background, and earned a 5 on the AP Calculus BC exam. My engineering education has given me extensive experience with algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and advanced mathematics. For SAT Math, I focus not only on reviewing the underlying concepts but also on recognizing common question types, improving problem-solving speed, and developing efficient strategies for working through the test under time constraints.
Trigonometry

Trigonometry

Trigonometry provides the foundation for many topics in mathematics, physics, and engineering. Through my B.S. in Mechanical Engineering (3.82 GPA), current M.S. in Aerospace Engineering, and professional engineering experience, I have applied trigonometric concepts extensively in solving real-world technical problems. I focus on helping students develop a strong understanding of trigonometric functions, identities, graphs, and applications so they gain both confidence and the skills needed for success in future STEM courses.
