About your science tutor
I'm a post graduate engineer turned to educator, with over two years of experience in teaching mathematics and science to middle school, high school and college students. Most of my engineerings studies have greatly helped me in understanding the fundamental of Mathematics and Physics which made me to take a leap towards teaching. The frequent use of complex calculations in credit courses have made me look at Mathematics as a puzzle more than as a subject. The numerous perspective of undestanding the very same thing is what makes this subject interesting for me. The approach can be different but following the fundamental will get you to the same destination, just like any other puzzle game. I help students identify and realize their weak areas and analyze them in order to give the remedial measures helping them proceed without hurdles. Most often it's not the memory power that will dominate but the logical reasoning and ability to think. That's exactly why Maths should be interesting. Over the years, I have found right examples and right methods that will quickly help the students in understanding and arriving at the solutions. Learning Mathematics should be fun ljust like a puzzle game. Let's get the fun started! Happy learning!
