About Leo

Hi, I’m Leo,
I graduated from Cornell University with a master’s degree in engineering management and the University of Utah with a B.S. in mechanical engineering with an economics minor. I’m an electromechanical engineer working on biotech and medical device R&D with 10+ years of experience in tutoring and mentoring scientists, engineers, and students. I specialize in teaching general/organic chemistry, cellular molecular biology, calculus-based physics, and English essays primarily for college/high school students.

Private tutoring

I taught many students in both individual sessions and group sessions novice to advanced level. When I was taking classes at college, I functioned as an embedded tutor, regularly held tutoring sessions, and helped many students inside and outside class. I’m also passionate about helping students with undergraduate and graduate school applications. I provided counseling and advice for admission essays, standardized tests, and preparation of applications. I mentored college students for major and career path selection utilizing my industry experiences. Students find it quite valuable since it cannot be learned from the teachers and counselors. I’m so glad to see when they get accepted to a desired school or find the major and career that matches their interest.

My Approach

Learning science, engineering, and writing essays might be a bit enigmatic. It’s an accumulation of knowledge, and building a foundation is very important when it comes to learning. The acquisition of advanced knowledge is the application of existing knowledge. The problem of today’s education is that in many cases, teachers and other tutors are merely showing the solutions and not nurturing the ability to comprehend the logic. The difference that I provide is to train students to be able to think and learn logically, minimizing reliance on memorization. My students learn to nurture forming the rationale of their solutions and learn to get 10 out of 10.

One of the practice skills that I teach my students is to troubleshoot mistakes in detail and find the root cause of how they went wrong. Whether it was a lack of knowledge or an incorrectly derived solution. Document and analyze the process of making a mistake and make the process better than before. As time goes by, the student nurtures the skills to learn for themselves and become better. They not only learn new knowledge but also learn effective problem-solving skills. I struggled with myself earlier in my academic career and worked very hard to get to where I am. I have designed some of the most advanced medical devices in the world, serving healthcare providers on a daily basis. I can feel students intellectually and emotionally struggle to understand the difficult concept. That’s where I’m passionate about helping students to succeed.
