Engineering & Math Tutoring

Identifying gaps or misunderstandings in previous learnings. Specific topic knowledge is built on other layers of information, correcting or filling in gaps in that base knowledge is always the first step. Correcting processes in small steps by allowing the student to understanding the underlying principals of the main topic come next. Ideally a student is led to the correct answers with some guidance and help of the tutor rather than being told to do X then Y then Z as there are often exceptions or building blocks that cannot be adapted by rigid learning processes.

I have a BS in Civil Engineering and work as a Civil Engineer. During my undergrad studies I worked as a T.A. for classes as high as senior level civil engineering design courses. I also tutored for classes in different math, structural, mechanical, and fluids courses.

Yes, pricing starts at $50 per hour or $30 for half hour with driving rates for trips farther than 15 minutes.

In college I volunteered in a mentorship program within our department and saw a need for younger students to receive assistance in learning the basics in the harder 100 and 200 level engineering courses. After helping the students I was assigned to mentor through their first 2 years of the program with expressed a need for extra teaching I would help them and later on their peers with extra practice problems, homework questions, and test preparations.

Mostly college students and some high school students.

Find someone whose teaching style makes sense to you. If you don't learn in the way that it is being taught, finding someone who can create a more dynamic way to present the tasks can sometimes find a way to help break you through the learning struggles you are having.

What are your learning goals? Are you looking for long term tutoring, help with a specific problem or topic, or something in the middle? Is there a gap in your knowledge of this topic from previous years that needs to be addressed?
