As an engineer, designer, and educator - I enjoy seeing the growth and development of an individual person, product, or initiative. Put simply - your progress is my pleasure! My name is Blake, I am an engineer who has worked in manufacturing for over a decade and I hold a strong a passion for the industry. I graduated from the University of Texas with a degree in Mechanical Engineering with Magna Cum Laude recognition by maintaining a GPA of 3.9. I was recognized by the Dean's List and President's List and taught senior level Heat Transfer during my last semester as a Teacher's Assistant, providing 1-on-1 tutoring and group remediation sessions, which I thoroughly enjoyed. Shortly after graduating I acquired my NCEES FE Certification. Tutoring in university is what got me hooked, and that's exactly what brought me here! I am here to provide the 1-on-1 support students need in order to accelerate learning. Learning new mathematical and engineering concepts can be similar to learning how to ride a bike - - without training wheels or the right coaching, it can be take longer to get the same result. My goal is to be your "training wheels" - - to get you moving independently as quickly as possible and then remove myself from the equation. I want to see you excel on your own, and try my best to make a daunting subject eventually seem "like riding a bike". I know that all of my students are smart enough and capable enough to learn the content independently, my goal is just to shorten the learning curve and provide the boost that is sometimes needed to overcome and obstacle or tough concept. If you have any questions or would like to discuss scheduling tutoring sessions please do not hesitate to contact me.
