I am an experienced structural engineer wanting to make an active positive difference to the next generation wishing to understand the world. I have got a degree on civil and structural engineering from the university of Aberdeen, Scotland, UK, and since my graduation I have been working for the oil and gas industry.
I believe that an understanding of maths and sciences is paramount in finding a path in this world and this is something I am keen to enable young people to develop. Through my previous work with children, teenagers and young adults on a voluntary and work basis, I have been able to use my listening and tutoring skills to success. I have been able to create an atmosphere that was encouraging learning. I am always trying to create ties between potentially abstract models to real life situations and this has been proven successful in enabling understanding and learning.

I am hoping to be again involved more actively in the tutoring field and help students to succeed in their studies.

Availability: Immediately - Evenings

Willing to travel: 8 miles

Experience: I have tutored in the past college level students who wanted to improve on their maths and physics. While working for the oil and gas I often provided technical support to colleagues to help them go through some of their work issues, young engineers starting out in the business and formal mentoring schemes.
I am also currently actively involved in my local football club as a Level 1 football coach.
In the past I have actively coached in my local Ju-Jitsu club, but more relevant to tutoring I have actively assisted in my community in my home country with tutoring for maths and physics. I am hoping to take this up again, as it gave me great satisfaction to see the youngsters bloom in their education.
