Ben's STEM Tutoring
About
I started tutoring basketball for developmentally disabled kids my senior year at Conestoga High School where we taught fundamentals and played pick up games every sunday. Once I graduated I found myself at Virginia Tech where I offered tutoring services at an afterschool program for a local middle school where I helped with math and reading. I am now back home in Pennsylvania pursuing an Engineering Degree at Drexel University where I wish to help future engineers succeed in there academic and personal life. I am currently working as a design engineer at Robert E. Lamb. In addition, I have been accepted to two top ranking engineering schools and I am currently sitting with a cumulative 3.1 GPA betwen the two. This provides me with the hands on and relevant knowledge of how school subjects can be translated and applied to the real world situations and problems.
