I am a creative technologist and front-end web developer who loves combining math and art where ever possible. I also enjoy explaining difficult math concepts using down-to-earth, layman English and creative, zany metaphors to really make sure a student understands the concepts. I have taught Interactive Media as a teaching assistant at NYUAD for 1.5 years, helping students learn how to brainstorm, problem-solve, and debug all sorts of projects in the various programming languages. I also grade and give feedback on math and science assignments and ELA essays for kids in 3rd - 12th grade as well as teach elementary students online how to code in Scratch. Additionally, I have been tutoring fellow peers and younger students throughout my education in a wide array of subjects including math, sciences, programming, and writing. I have a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering from NYUAD with a minor in Visual Arts Practice with a focus on both Fine Arts and Interactive Media.

I make math a stress-free learning experience by focusing on the student's weaknesses or trouble points and by focusing on creating a strong foundation before working up to harder levels. I explain difficult concepts by breaking them down, speaking in a down-to-earth, layman English style, and by coming up with creative, zainy metaphors to help make sense of the topic at hand and where it is applicable in real life.
