Experience
Since graduating from Tufts University in the Fall 2013 semester (I graduated early), where I earned a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering, I've been serving as a tutor at the Center of Engineering Education Outreach Center. My educational focus was on MEMS systems and I was providing my services at the outreach center while still a student at the university. I can teach all levels of physics and mathematics from elementary and middle school math, algebra, and calculus to linear algebra and multivariable calculus. I help prepare for and get students confident enough to pass SAT math, physics, and other subject tests.In the meantime, I am part of a project that helps Indonesian students learn various concepts/ fundamentals of engineering by using LEGOs. The need to foster scientific literacy and capability is strong. A professional engineer, I understand the urgency in our technological society well. Many students struggle in this area, but I love to help them and see when a kid learns something they probably didn't believe they ever could. I now live in Fairfield, Connecticut. Besides being an engineer and dedicated tutor, I enjoy my time away from work tremendously. I like to go hiking, climbing, and running.
