I have a degree in Civil Engineering from San Diego State University and more than 20 years of professional experience applying mathematics, physics, and technical problem-solving in engineering, construction, design, and project management. My education and professional career have required extensive use of algebra, geometry, trigonometry, calculus, and physics to understand and solve real-world technical problems.

I have regularly tutored and guided others through technical information, calculations, drawings, engineering concepts, and problem-solving processes. My approach is to break complicated problems into manageable steps, explain why each step works, and help the person develop a repeatable process rather than simply providing an answer. That same approach is the foundation of how I have tutored high school and college students over the past 20 years.

I work one-on-one with students in subjects including Algebra I and II, Geometry, Trigonometry, Precalculus, Calculus, and Physics. When possible, I ask students to send their homework, notes, study guides, or other course material before the lesson. I review the material in advance so our session can focus on the concepts and problems the student is struggling with. My goal is for students to leave a session understanding not only how to solve the problems in front of them, but why the methods work and how to apply them independently.

Approved Subjects

Algebra 1

Algebra 1

I have a degree in Civil Engineering, where algebra is foundational to solving technical and mathematical problems. I have continued to apply algebraic reasoning throughout more than 20 years of professional work in engineering, construction, design, and project management. I help students understand equations, variables, functions, graphing, and problem-solving rather than simply memorizing procedures. My approach is to break problems into manageable steps and help students understand why each step works.
Algebra 2

Algebra 2

My Civil Engineering education required extensive use of algebra as the foundation for higher-level mathematics, physics, and engineering analysis. I am comfortable with functions, equations and inequalities, systems, polynomials, rational expressions, radicals, exponentials, and logarithms. I focus on helping students recognize the structure of a problem and determine which mathematical tools to use. Whenever possible, I review the student's material beforehand so our session can focus specifically on the concepts causing difficulty.
Calculus

Calculus

I completed college-level calculus as part of my Civil Engineering degree and used calculus as a foundation for advanced engineering and physics coursework. I can help students with limits, derivatives, integrals, applications of differentiation and integration, and the underlying concepts connecting them. Rather than treating calculus as a collection of formulas, I focus on helping students understand what the mathematics represents and why a particular method works. I break complicated problems into smaller steps so students can develop a repeatable problem-solving process.
Geometry

Geometry

Geometry is directly connected to my Civil Engineering background and more than 20 years working with engineering, construction, and design. My professional experience involves practical applications of dimensions, angles, areas, volumes, spatial relationships, and geometric reasoning. I help students connect geometric rules and formulas to what they actually represent instead of relying only on memorization. We work through problems systematically so the student understands both the reasoning and the solution.
Physics

Physics

Physics was an important part of my Civil Engineering education and provides the foundation for many engineering concepts I have worked with professionally. I can help students understand topics such as motion, forces, energy, work, vectors, and the mathematics used to solve physics problems. I emphasize understanding the physical situation first and then translating it into the appropriate equations. This helps students learn how to approach unfamiliar problems rather than simply searching for the right formula.
Prealgebra

Prealgebra

My Civil Engineering background is built on the same mathematical fundamentals students develop in prealgebra. I help students strengthen their understanding of fractions, decimals, ratios, proportions, variables, expressions, equations, and basic problem-solving. I focus on identifying gaps in foundational skills because those gaps often create problems later in algebra and higher-level mathematics. My goal is to make the reasoning behind each step clear so students build confidence and a foundation they can continue using.
Precalculus

Precalculus

My Civil Engineering education required extensive mathematics through calculus and engineering-level technical coursework. I can help students with functions, trigonometry, exponential and logarithmic relationships, equations, graphs, and other concepts that prepare them for calculus. I focus on showing how these concepts connect rather than teaching them as unrelated formulas and procedures. My problem-solving approach breaks complicated material into smaller pieces and builds toward a complete understanding.
Trigonometry

Trigonometry

Trigonometry is closely connected to engineering, geometry, and technical problem-solving, and it was an important part of my Civil Engineering education. I can help students understand triangles, angles, trigonometric functions, identities, equations, and practical applications of sine, cosine, and tangent. I emphasize understanding the relationships behind the formulas so students know when and why to use them. I also use practical examples when helpful to make abstract concepts easier to visualize.
