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.

The Student and Tutor reviewed the basics of integration, including indefinite and definite integrals. They practiced applying the power rule and evaluated integrals of trigonometric and exponential functions with given limits. The Student was assigned to review the PDF shared by the Tutor.
Mathematical Representation of Integration
Area Under the Curve & Integration
Power Rule of Integration
Integration of Constant Functions
Definite Integrals and Limits
Integration of Trigonometric Functions: Sine and Cosine
Integration as Anti-derivative
The Student practiced finding absolute maximum and minimum values for various functions, including polynomials and trigonometric functions, over specified intervals, some of which were infinite. They used derivative tests to identify critical points and determine the function's behavior at endpoints and infinity. The Tutor emphasized checking values in the original function and considering the function's end behavior.
Absolute Maximum and Minimum Values on a Closed Interval
Dealing with Infinity in Absolute Extrema
Chain Rule
Finding Critical Points
First Derivative Test
The Student and Tutor reviewed fluid pressure, depth variation, gauge pressure, barometers, and Pascal's principle. The session included formula derivations and real-world applications like drinking straws and blood pressure measurement. They are scheduled to continue with the next physics topic in the following session.
