My teaching methods include guiding students through example problems and giving them the necessary tools to grasp the concept for similar problems. Occasionally, I use visual aids (diagrams, physical objects, graphs etc) to simplify a complex concept. My classes are targeted to students in Elementary (Kindergarten - Grade 7) and Secondary (Grade 8 - 12) schools.
I am currently a technical support engineer, and I have a bachelors degree in mechanical engineering. I have been involved in peer tutoring for math, science, and English since high school as these were always my strongest subjects. I enjoy learning and teaching and am constantly taking courses for my professional development.
