Brendan M.

Private tutor in Sydney, Australia

Education

I earned my Bachelor of Engineering with honours in Electrical and Electronic Systems from the University of Melbourne. I earned H1s (high distinctions) for all Engineering Mathematics courses (Calculus, Linear Algebra, and more) and all Computer Programming topics. I also have more than 10 years of experience in computer programming.

Experience

I am an electrical engineer from Melbourne, Australia. Until mid-2015 I worked for one of the world's largest engineering companies (in fact, the fifth-biggest software company in the world!). I have also worked in a number of other software/ electrical engineering roles from testing and debugging solar power equipment to building mobile phone apps that are now used by engineers across the world. But before I became an engineer, I was a Mathematics and Computer Programming tutor. I first tutored Computer Programming when I was in high school and tutored Mathematics throughout my years at university. I have found that the number one thing holding students back from success in these subjects is not a lack of talent or effort, but worry and self-doubt. I have come across many students that think they will never be good at math because their teacher does not have time to adequately explain the concepts to them. I find it hugely rewarding to see the improvements my students make because they've had someone explain the concepts to them in a way they can understand. I might be a little biased, but I truly believe with the right approach everybody can excel at, and even enjoy, Maths and Programming. I am happy to teach students of all ages and skill levels.
