About
I am a chemical engineer passionate about teaching and mentoring. I have two years of experience teaching/tutoring for engineering courses, and my passion for sharing knowledge has only grown since then. I love simplifying concepts and seeing students growing and achieve their goals, thence, my objective as a tutor is to help unlock their understanding of difficult subjects and excel in them.
I am not just a tutor; I am also a mentor to my students.
