Darry D.
Private tutor in Livermore, CA
Education
B.S in Mechanical Engineering, M.S in Mechanical Engineering at San Jose state University. Ever since childhood, I have been fascinated by physics and mathematics. I grew up trying to build things from scrap in my dad's agricultural den. Learning doesn't come with degrees but with hands on experience and practice. My theory of studies is that if you understand basic building blocks that are used to derive more complex theories, you would never face any hardships in the future.
Experience
I worked as assistant for a professor who taught diploma in Mechanical Engineering for 1 year. My GRE score was 315. During my MS I worked as teaching assistant and gathered a lot of learning as a tutor. Be it undergraduate or school student, learning is equivalent for all. I am pretty comfortable teaching pre-calculus, calculus, physics. These subjects have been my backbone in mechanical engineering. I also tutor students in arithmetic, middle school math, pre-algebra, algebra, differential equations, geometry, statistics, trigonometry. I believe teaching is the best thing that happened to me, as I did learn a lot and have been able to successfully put my knowledge to a use.

Hobbies
Apart from studying, physical and mental exercise is required for whole body to function at its optimum level. I read lot of books, especially autobiographies. The piece of wisdom from these books have helped me to make better decision as well as to become a good human being. I love cars. The feeling when you drive 325 HP beast is mind blowing. I do lot of physical activities. I love going to gym and working out. Usually on weekends I go for hiking or mountain biking. To some up, I would motivate my students not only in studies but also for outdoor activities. Keeping a balance between studies, playing, and leisure is very important.
