Throughout my educational journey, I have continuously sought to deepen my understanding and share my knowledge in the field of electronics and electrical engineering. My journey began with a solid foundation as an Electronics Technician in 2013, where I gained practical skills that would later complement my academic pursuits. This hands-on experience fueled my passion for the subject, leading me to pursue a Bachelor's degree in Electronics Engineering, which I completed in 2019 with merit. During my undergraduate years, I was privileged to receive a full ride scholarship and participated in two study abroad experiences in Austria and the US, enriching my perspective on global engineering practices.

As an undergraduate student, I excelled academically, consistently placing in the top 10% of my class and earning a spot on the Dean's list. I also seized opportunities to gain practical experience through internships, one of which was with a multinational company, where I gained invaluable insights into real-world applications of my field. Additionally, I served as a teacher assistant for calculus, where I discovered my passion for teaching and helping others understand complex concepts. This experience inspired me to continue teaching as a grader during my graduate studies, further honing my skills in supporting students' learning.

Currently, I am pursuing a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering with a graduate fellowship (full ride). My teaching philosophy centers on providing clear explanations and guidance to students, drawing from my diverse academic and practical experiences. Whether in a classroom setting, one-on-one tutoring, or volunteer work, I strive to create a supportive learning environment where students can thrive and achieve their academic goals, as fast as they can (with my past 10 years of experience as a student, I know how time is a valuable and limited asset we have).

Amazing Electrical Engineering Tutor

We had a really great experience with Joao. We contacted him last minute for help with a EE final project my son was stuck on. Joao was very accommodating and squeezed him into his day despite such short notice. He was kind, patient, knowledgeable and very effective. With no prep time he was able to look at the material we provided and explain things clearly and effectively in a way that made my son feel comfortable and confident in the material. He ended up getting an A on the project, and we were so grateful for Joao’s help. We highly recommend him!

Carol, 1 lesson with Joao

It was good session

It was pretty much explanatory, good recommendation and very good suggestions. Joao was very thorough and took careful measures in helping me grasp a concept that I had forgotten. He made me really think about how I would come up with how to start with the concept of MBSE

Extremely qualified and very patient.

It was a pleasure working with Joao. I was fascinated by his background and enjoyed speaking with him. He easily handled my dilemma with Adobe and helped me go paperless. I will be using his services again and would recommend him highly.
