I hold a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Texas at Dallas, along with a Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering and a Bachelor's degree from Northern Arizona University. My academic and research background has provided me with a strong foundation in mathematics, including Algebra, Precalculus, Calculus, Linear Algebra, Differential Equations, and applied mathematics. I have also conducted postdoctoral research at several U.S. universities and currently work as a Senior Engineer at the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS).

I have three years of teaching experience as a Teaching Assistant at the University of Texas at Dallas, where I supported undergraduate engineering students through coursework assistance, problem-solving discussions, and individualized academic guidance. My tutoring approach focuses on one-on-one interaction, allowing me to identify each student's strengths, learning difficulties, and academic goals. I break down complex mathematical concepts into clear, manageable steps and use practical examples to strengthen understanding. I encourage students to ask questions, think independently, and develop effective problem-solving strategies. I tailor each session to the student's pace and specific needs, whether they are reviewing fundamentals, working through challenging problems, or preparing for exams.

My primary focus is mathematics tutoring for high school and college students, particularly Algebra, Precalculus, Calculus, Linear Algebra, and Differential Equations. I also offer specialized guidance in Finite Element Analysis (FEA/FEM), ANSYS, Abaqus, structural mechanics, and engineering research methods. Whether you need help preparing for exams, strengthening your mathematical foundation, or understanding advanced engineering concepts, my goal is to make learning clear, engaging, and effective.

Approved Subjects

Calculus

Calculus

I hold a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering and have extensive experience applying calculus to advanced engineering problems, mathematical modeling, and scientific research. During my three years as a university teaching assistant, I helped undergraduate students understand mathematical concepts and apply them to engineering coursework. My expertise includes differential and integral calculus, multivariable calculus, partial derivatives, multiple integrals, and differential equations, which I have used extensively throughout my doctoral and postdoctoral research. I can help students strengthen their understanding of calculus, develop effective problem-solving strategies, and prepare for homework, quizzes, and exams through personalized one-on-one tutoring.
Chinese

Chinese

I am a native Chinese speaker, born and raised in China, with a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from a U.S. university. As a native Mandarin speaker with extensive academic and professional experience in both China and the United States, I can help students develop practical Chinese language skills and understand Chinese culture. My tutoring approach focuses on personalized one-on-one instruction, including pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar, conversational Chinese, reading, and writing. I tailor each lesson to the student's proficiency level and learning goals, whether they are beginners or looking to improve their fluency.
Linear Algebra

Linear Algebra

I hold a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering and have several years of postdoctoral research experience, with extensive applications of linear algebra in engineering, numerical methods, and scientific computing. My expertise includes matrix operations, systems of linear equations, vector spaces, linear transformations, eigenvalues and eigenvectors, and orthogonality, all of which are fundamental to my research in finite element analysis (FEA) and structural mechanics. During my three years as a university teaching assistant, I gained valuable experience helping undergraduate students understand mathematical and engineering concepts and develop effective problem-solving skills. I can help students master linear algebra through clear explanations, step-by-step problem solving, and practical applications using MATLAB, with personalized support for homework, quizzes, and exam preparation.
MATLAB

MATLAB

I hold a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering and have over 10 years of extensive experience using MATLAB for academic coursework, engineering applications, and scientific research. My expertise includes MATLAB programming, numerical methods, data analysis, mathematical modeling, optimization, and scientific visualization. Throughout my graduate studies and postdoctoral research, I have used MATLAB extensively to solve complex engineering problems, process experimental data, and analyze simulation results. I can help students at different skill levels understand MATLAB concepts, debug code, improve programming skills, and develop effective problem-solving strategies through personalized one-on-one tutoring.
Mechanical Engineering

Mechanical Engineering

I hold a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering and have several years of postdoctoral research experience, specializing in composite materials, additive manufacturing, and finite element analysis (FEA). My research in composite materials focuses on fiber-reinforced composites, mechanical characterization, interfacial mechanics, damage mechanisms, and structural performance. I have extensive experience in additive manufacturing, including continuous fiber-reinforced 3D printing, material processing, and the mechanical behavior of additively manufactured structures. My expertise in finite element modeling (FEM) includes linear and nonlinear structural analysis, contact mechanics, fracture mechanics, and multiphysics simulations using ANSYS and Abaqus, enabling me to help undergraduate and graduate students understand complex engineering concepts and develop practical problem-solving skills.
