About this tutor
I am a semi-retired civil and mechanical engineer currently teaching Math, Physics, Software Development, and Deep Neural Networks for the love of it. I worked 25 years developing technology software, so I am pretty good with applied math too.
I believe in setting high expectations and hard work. I teach for mastery. We go over concepts until we get them right. And we will use a data driven approach to track progress
My goal is to make you succeed!
When I see the proverbial "light bulb" go off for my students, it really makes my day. Success breeds self confidence and enthusiasm. Seeing that enthusiasm on my students faces is what I enjoy most.

TODAY was the day I finally passed my test, I am so thankful. You were patient and kind and took your time to really look at my strengths and weaknesses and determine where I needed help the most! I finally obtained my GED, again thank you! Totally recommend! :)

Prior to hiring this tutor I had not done any math in over 15 years. I was very insecure in my ability to complete the assigned Math course for my college degree. With the help of my tutor, I went from scoring grades in the low 60s to scoring 80s and above without assistance. I am very happy with my results and more confident in my Math course.

I liked that I someone contacted me the next day because I really needed tutoring asap! The tutor that contacted me was Dhar who was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and most importantly, he made the math easy to understand!! 💯 recommended!!
