I am an international student. Having lived in 2 countries and different cultures, I tend to understand people the way they are. I love Physics and Mathematics hence why I studied Engineering and right now I am doing a PhD in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at University of Strathclyde.

Previously, I have done undergrad and postgrad courses in Pakistan and Scotland respectively. After that I continued onto PhD level.

I have been teaching voluntarily back in Pakistan. Then I had to discontinue it after coming to Glasgow.

I am polite, understanding and always want students to gain confidence. If they are confident, they will be able to perform very well.

I will be able to teach in Urdu/Hindi/Punjabi if required.

Having an undergraduate degree in Mechanical Engineering, it became inevitable for me to get an MSc. The main motive was my experimental research final year project on creep study of materials in which I was able to secure a 3.7/4.0 GPA with top 10 percent standing in my batch and project based upon design, analysis and fabrication of a Human Powered Vehicle (HPV) which got me second best design award in International Mechanical Engineering Convention (2012) held at Ghulam Ishaq Khan Institute (GIKI), Topi, Pakistan. This project had aspect of detailed structural analysis of vehicle abiding by design specification by American Society of Mechanical Engineers, GIKI Chapter. Hence mixture of experimental research and design based project in the past, pushed me to go further and gain a little more as an international student.

During my MSc at Strathclyde, Glasgow, I kept my focus on micro-fluids, boiler technologies and energy systems. Fluid Systems Engineering course focused on microfluidic applications, modelling and simulation study including gas micro-flows, Direct Simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method for rarefied gas flows, molecular dynamics and rain-wind induced vibrations. Advanced boiler technologies majorly focused on two phase flow calculations and combustion study in boilers. Once again for my thesis research, I went for experiment based project. For both my research projects (undergrad final year project and masters thesis), I directly felt the need of verification and validation of my results through CFD techniques.

Availability: Available on Sundays after 6 and anytime after 7 on weekdays.

Willing to travel: 15 miles

Experience: Taught first year engineering students in university and college students of pre-engineering.
