Engineering Tutoring
About
I'm currently a Mechanical Engineering undergrad student, I am more than happy to help any students that are taking classes that I have taken before.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
Well, the first thing you need to do is determine what the student is struggling in. If the tutoring is for a formal class I'd like to go over class materials such as tests, homework, etc. and identify areas of difficulty to address in instruction.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I'm a 3rd year Mechanical Engineering major at a school with a less than 10% acceptance rate. Last summer I filled an instructional role teaching freshman level college students.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
It depends on the difficulty of the topic and the nature of how the student needs me. I may charge $15/hr for a high school student that I teach algebra to for 3 hours a week, or $35/hr if I'm teaching an engineering student how to calculate and solve unknown variables in electromechanical systems. I can also look over homework/worked out problems and provide corrections and feedback for a much cheaper rate.
How did you get started teaching?
I tutored people all through high school and freshman.
What types of students have you worked with?
I primarily have taught high schoolers and college students.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
If you're an engineering student, you've found the right guy, but every institution teaches classes differently and you may need to provide instructional materials so I can figure out the parts that are different.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
