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
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.
Integration as Anti-derivative
Integration of Trigonometric Functions: Sine and Cosine
Mathematical Representation of Integration
Area Under the Curve & Integration
Power Rule of Integration
Definite Integrals and Limits
Integration of Constant Functions
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.
First Derivative Test
Finding Critical Points
Chain Rule
Dealing with Infinity in Absolute Extrema
Absolute Maximum and Minimum Values on a Closed Interval
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.
Gouge Pressure
Variation of Pressure with Depth
Buoyancy Force
Pascal's Principle
Barometers vs. Manometers
Blood Pressure Measurement
The Student and Tutor reviewed concavity, inflection points, and critical points of functions, applying calculus to analyze graphs. They worked through several example problems to determine intervals of increasing/decreasing behavior and concavity. The session concluded with proving properties of cubic polynomials and finding inflection points, with a plan to continue practicing these concepts.
Using the Number Line for Concavity
Concavity: Up and Down
Inflection Points
Critical Points
Increasing and Decreasing Intervals
Inflection Points and Average of Roots (Cubic Polynomials)
The session reviewed L'Hôpital's Rule for solving limits and applied it to various indeterminate forms, including infinity problems and exponential functions. The Student also worked on finding critical and inflection points for concavity. The Tutor assigned reviewing the concavity questions for the next session.
Factorials and Limits
Increasing and Decreasing Functions
Concavity and Inflection Points
Derivatives of Exponential Functions
Limits Involving Infinity
L'Hôpital's Rule
The session covered the concepts of air pressure, air density, and their relationship to gravity and altitude. The student learned about atmospheric pressure at sea level and worked through a problem involving pressure, force, and area. The Tutor assigned math practice for the next session.
Standard Atmospheric Pressure
Area of a Circle
Force
Pressure
and Area Relationship
