Zahid - Know your tutor
Hi there! I'm Zahid Bashir, a Mathematics tutor with a degree in civil engineering. My teaching philosophy focuses on making math fun and relatable to everyday life. I believe in personalized learning to cater to individual student needs. By using real-life examples and interactive activities, I ensure students are engaged and grasp concepts effectively. From Elementary School Math to AP Calculus, I'm here to support students at all levels. Let's make math an enjoyable journey together! Additionally, I've developed unique problem-solving strategies that have helped many students achieve their academic goals. Whether it's through one-on-one sessions or group workshops, I strive to inspire a love for mathematics in every learner. My experience in civil engineering also allows me to provide practical applications of mathematical principles, showing students the real-world relevance of what they learn. I am passionate about fostering a positive and encouraging learning environment. I utilize various teaching tools, including digital resources and hands-on activities, to cater to different learning styles. My goal is not only to improve grades but also to build confidence in my students, empowering them to tackle challenges independently.
Class overview
As a versatile tutor specializing in various levels of math, I engage with students through practical and motivating teaching methods. I aim to adapt to each student's unique learning style and provide the necessary support to excel in subjects like Algebra, Geometry, and Calculus. By incorporating whiteboarding techniques, I help students visualize concepts clearly and interact with the material directly, leading to significant improvements in their grades. Additionally, I use interactive math games and puzzles to make learning enjoyable and reinforce key concepts. For more complex topics, I utilize 3D models to aid in visualizing mathematical ideas. My adaptable and supportive approach ensures that students not only understand the material but also feel confident in their abilities to excel in math.

Mathematics concept taught by Zahid
During a recent physics lesson, a student from Texas A&M University in College Station focused on a practice test. The lesson covered core concepts such as kinematics, vectors, average velocity, and instantaneous velocity. They also reviewed essential skills like dimensional analysis, significant figures, unit conversions, and vector calculations. To reinforce these topics, practice questions from the test were assigned for the student to complete.
Unit Conversion (Area)
Vector Components
Dimensional Analysis
Instantaneous Velocity (Derivative)
Average Velocity
Zahid and Sannidhi engaged in a calculus lesson, tackling problems involving limits and continuity through graphical analysis. They then transitioned to kinematics, where they focused on calculating velocity, speed, and displacement from both graphs and equations. Sannidhi actively practiced finding slopes, derivatives, and applying formulas to solve various motion problems. For follow-up, Zahid assigned further review of kinematics concepts, and their next lesson is scheduled to concentrate on the fundamental principles of continuity and limits in calculus.
Instantaneous Velocity
Average Speed
Average Velocity
Slope of Velocity-Time Graph
Slope of Position-Time Graph
Limit Existence
Right-Hand Limit
Left-Hand Limit
Zahid and Sannidhi delved into kinematics, a core area of physics, reviewing concepts like distance, displacement, speed, and velocity. They also analyzed position versus time graphs, covering both uniform and non-uniform motion. Sannidhi honed her skills by calculating average speed and average velocity from various graphs and word problems. For follow-up, Zahid assigned practice questions and a chapter 1 practice test, and set a math review lesson for Monday.
Distance vs. Displacement
Speed vs. Velocity
Position-Time Graph (Uniform Motion)
Position-Time Graph (Non-Uniform Motion)
Slope of Position-Time Graph
Zahid and a student from St. Petersburg College discussed motion, kinematics, and dynamics, focusing on distance, displacement, scalar, and vector quantities. The student practiced distinguishing between distance and displacement through examples, including a dog retrieving a stick and a book moving around a table. They will continue with the topic in the next lesson.
Distance
Motion
Kinematics
Dynamics
Reference Frame
Displacement
Zahid provided a lesson to a University of California San Diego student, where they discussed unit vectors, including rectangular and polar coordinate systems. The student practiced vector addition using components and learned how to find the magnitude and direction of resultant vectors. As a follow-up, Zahid assigned 10 practice questions from the class PDF for them to complete after the lesson.
Unit Vector
Vector Magnitude
Vector Addition by Components
3D Vector Magnitude
Zahid provided a lesson to a student from Concord, where they discussed vector addition and subtraction. This included sign conventions and the tip-to-tail method. The learner actively practiced finding resultant vectors and their components. For their next lesson, Zahid assigned practice problems and will provide a PDF of the materials.
Vector Components
Resultant Vector
Negative of a Vector
Commutative Law of Vector Addition
Vector Addition (Tip-to-Tail Method)
