About Miles
I am a recent graduate of the University of Colorado Boulder with a master's and undergraduate degree both in mechanical engineering. Throughout school, I excelled in Calculus, Physics, and Thermodynamics. While attending college I acted as a TA and a tutor for these various subjects. While tutoring, I really took the time to understand the problem solving process of the students I was working with, giving them more effective tools to approach problem solving to help them excell on their own. I am looking to tutor high school students or underclassman in college who are persuing a career in math or engineering.
I worked last summer at John Zink Hammworthy combustion as a Research and Development engineer. This was an awesome job becasue I got to do a little bit of everything from coding to mechanical design and physical experimentation. My favorite part about the job was that I needed to pick up new skills every day and solve open ended problems.
Teaching kind of fell into my lap. I was doing well in these classes and ended up explaining many of the concepts to my fellow students in my physics class. Eventually my professor learned about this and offered me a TA position. After this I ended up being a TA for other classes I was passionate about and through the TA positions I found students that needed more help and became their tutor.
I have no formal education that relates to teaching, however through college I acted as a TA for my physics I and II courses as well as my thermodynamics courses. As a TA I lead review sessions and had office hours for homework help. I also did private tutoring for a Calculus I and III as well as physics I and thermodynamics.

I first like to get to know the student and what they want to do later in life. I used to be intimidated by teachers so by getting to know the student I feel like there can be a better work flow. After this, I have the student work me through a typical problem in the particular subject so I can identify areas that can cause issue with their problem solving process. From here I break down these problem issues and give the student the tools they need to more effectively work through the problem areas. Finally, I focus on repetition of problems where the student "teaches" me how to solve the problems to solidify their understanding.
Thus far I have only worked with college students.
Find someone you are comfortable with. You do not want to feel intimidated or affraid to ask questions. A good teacher should challenge the student, but understand when the student needs to slow down.
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
The student should think about how they think and like to learn. Are you visual or conceptual? Do you like to work through problems together or watch as I explain the process? Do you think in a liner way or are you more all over the place?

He was very clear about what I needed to work on, and helped me to create smart goals to improve my performance across the board. He's concise, on-time, and just incredibly kind overall. I would recommend him to anyone.
Really helped me get my head around Calc and was the difference between getting a A- and an A.
Miles is a great tutor— he explains complicated concepts in a way that is understandable, and he always made sure I was prepared to ace my exams.

Details
I typically have the first lesson free to see if the student and I get along. After this I charge $30 for a 1 hour session. I also understand that these times are hard, so I would be willing to negotiate lower prices to help students from underprivilaged families or families going through a hard time.
