About
I love computer engineering, sciences in general and I love teaching as well. I work full-time as a Hardware Engineer designing complex Application-Specific-Integrated-Circuits (ASIC) GPU (Graphics Pr... ocessing Unit) at a top computer technology company. In the past I tutored a couple of high-school students AP computer science, and I was a TA for a college-level computer graphics course (programming, algebra, geometry). I am passionate about what I do at work, and I enjoy spreading my passion and knowledge to younger folks as well. I want to inspire more students to become scientists and engineers.
A few highlights about my background:
-Minored in Math in college. Had excellent grades (at least A-).
-800 out of 800 on SAT Math I, II, and AP Calculus.
-Majored in Physics in college. Loves physics.
-Native speaker of Mandarin Chinese.
-Works in the Computer Engineering industry as a Hardware Engineer.
"If you cannot explain it to others clearly, then you do not fully understand it." -- Albert Einstein. I believe it is very important to try to explain things from the students' perspective. My tutoring approach is to record the listen to my own explanations of key ideas and concepts, to see if my explanations are clear enough. Also I would collect feedbacks from my students and ask them to explain the concepts back to me to confirm that they have fully understood and grasped them.
