Experienced Math, Chemistry, and Programming Tutor

Adama N.

Hello! My name is Adama, and I am an engineering student at George Mason University with a strong background in mathematics, science, and programming. I have completed extensive coursework in mechanical engineering, chemistry, and computer science, and I have hands-on experience applying these subjects in real-world projects, including designing photovoltaic power systems for villages without electricity in Senegal.

I have been tutoring for several years, helping students at different levels (high school, college, and adult learners) in subjects like Python programming (CS 112), General Chemistry (CHEM 211), and mathematics. Currently, I worked as a peer tutor at George Mason University and also at a well known tutoring facility. My tutoring approach is tailored to each student’s needs whether they require step-by-step explanations, problem-solving strategies, or conceptual understanding.

Tutoring Methods & Approach
Personalized Learning – I adapt my teaching style to match each student’s strengths and learning preferences.
Concept-Based Teaching – I focus on understanding the "why" behind concepts, not just memorization.
Problem-Solving Focus – I use a hands-on approach where students practice problems to reinforce learning.
Supportive & Encouraging – I create a comfortable environment where students feel confident to ask questions.
I have experience tutoring both one-on-one and in group settings, and I have helped students improve their grades, develop study strategies, and build confidence in STEM subjects. Whether you're preparing for an exam, struggling with a tough concept, or looking to get ahead, I’m here to help!

I look forward to working with you and helping you achieve your academic goals!
