Hi, I'm Keyvan, and I'm excited to help students build confidence and skill in math and science. I hold a PhD in Mechanical Engineering from Iowa State University, and through years of rigorous coursework and research I've developed a deep, practical understanding of how math and science concepts build on one another, knowledge I'm eager to pass on in a way that's clear and approachable rather than intimidating. I work well with students at a range of levels, from those just getting comfortable with algebraic fundamentals to those prepping for the math section of the SAT, and I particularly enjoy helping students who feel like math "just isn't their thing" realize that with the right explanation, it actually clicks. I understand how frustrating it can be to feel stuck on a concept, especially when the rest of the class seems to be moving on, and I try to meet every student exactly where they are rather than rushing through a one-size-fits-all approach.
My approach to tutoring is patient, practical, and focused on building real understanding rather than just memorizing steps. I like to start by figuring out where a student's confusion actually begins, sometimes it's a gap from a few lessons back, rather than just reviewing the current homework. From there, I break problems down into manageable pieces, use plenty of practice problems to reinforce new ideas, and check in frequently to make sure concepts are actually sticking before moving on. Whether we're working through SAT math strategies or balancing chemical equations, my goal is for each student to leave a session feeling more confident and less anxious about the subject than when we started.

Approved Subjects

Algebra 1

Algebra 1

I have a strong command of Algebra 1 concepts including linear equations, inequalities, functions, systems of equations, and polynomials. I specialize in breaking down complex topics into simple, easy-to-understand steps that build student confidence and comprehension. My approach is personalized to each student's learning style, ensuring they not only pass their coursework but develop a solid mathematical foundation for future studies. I am dedicated to helping students overcome math anxiety and achieve measurable improvement.
Algebra 2

Algebra 2

I have comprehensive knowledge of Algebra 2 topics including quadratic functions, polynomials, rational expressions, exponential and logarithmic functions, complex numbers, and sequences and series. I help students connect Algebra 2 concepts to real-world applications while building the critical thinking skills needed for higher-level mathematics. My tutoring approach focuses on identifying each student's specific areas of difficulty and creating targeted strategies to address gaps in understanding. I am committed to helping students gain confidence, improve their grades, and succeed in preparation for precalculus and beyond.
Chemistry

Chemistry

I hold an advanced degree in Chemical Engineering, giving me a deep and comprehensive understanding of chemistry at both the foundational and applied levels. I have thorough knowledge of chemistry fundamentals including atomic structure, chemical bonding, stoichiometry, thermodynamics, reaction kinetics, equilibrium, and electrochemistry. My engineering background allows me to connect chemistry concepts to real-world industrial and scientific applications, making lessons more engaging and meaningful for students. I am passionate about helping students build confidence, develop strong problem-solving skills, and excel in their chemistry coursework and standardized exams.
Data Analysis

Data Analysis

I have experience analyzing engineering datasets using Python, Excel, and statistical methods. I’ve taught students how to clean data, build models, and interpret results. My background in mechanical engineering gives me strong applied math skills. I help students understand both theory and practical workflows.
Physics

Physics

I hold a PhD in Mechanical Engineering and have extensive experience teaching physics to undergraduate students. My background includes university‑level instruction, mentoring, and helping students master core physics concepts ranging from mechanics and energy to waves, electricity, and magnetism. I focus on building strong conceptual understanding, problem‑solving skills, and clear step‑by‑step reasoning so students gain confidence and perform at a high level in their physics courses.
SAT Math

SAT Math

I am a PhD‑trained Mechanical Engineer with extensive experience teaching and mentoring students in mathematics and quantitative reasoning. My background includes university‑level instruction, and developing clear, structured explanations for complex concepts. I specialize in breaking down SAT Math topics into intuitive, step‑by‑step strategies that build confidence and accuracy. My approach emphasizes precision, problem‑solving, and evidence‑based methods that help students improve quickly.
Study Skills

Study Skills

I am a PhD‑trained Mechanical Engineer with extensive experience teaching and mentoring students at the undergraduate and graduate levels. Throughout my academic career, I helped learners strengthen their study habits, organization, time‑management, note‑taking, and test‑preparation strategies. I specialize in breaking down complex tasks, building effective routines, and teaching students how to learn efficiently and independently. My approach is structured, supportive, and tailored to each student’s strengths and challenges.
