Effective Engineer for Math, Physics and Chemistry Tutoring
I am a hydraulic/civil engineer by profession. For my undergraduate program, I was the recipient of the prize for an outstanding student. I have both classroom teaching and private tutoring experiences. Between 2002 and 2006, I was a lecturer at the Ethiopian Civil Service University and during that time I taught more than 12 different engineering courses for undergraduate urban engineering students. Between 2006 and 2011 I was a research assistant at the University of Wyoming and I used to c…
Testimonials
Ann L. from Greenbelt, MD Mr. Nibret is an excellent tutor. He makes sure he is familiar with the material and makes sure his student understands. All in all, I am very pleased with his services as a physics tutor.
Ismat B. from Gaithersburg, MD Nibret is an excellent teacher and very friendly. My daughter meets with him twice a week for pre-calculus and she tells me he is very helpful and extremely patient. He always comes on time and gets right down to business. He will even stay extra time when necessary, to make sure my daughter thoroughly understands what they were working on that day. Since the school doesn't give enough homework, I've asked him to give her some work so she is confident on her tests or quizzes. He gives her homework right from the book so she stays ahead of the school. Her grades have improved significantly since we have started with him, and we will continue on with him for her other math courses.
Kamil N. from Lanham, MD Nibret has been a great tutor for my son. He is diligent in his efforts, and has been a great help for my son. He has patiently guided him through his AP Calculus BC course and I would most definitely recommend him.
Linda R. from Ellicott City, MD In spring 2014, I was taking an intermediate college algebra class and I received a ?D? for my first exam. A friend recommended Nibret and my last exam was an ?A." I am so impressed by Nibret and his teaching skills. He is very patient and a very effective communicator. His knowledge in algebra is outstanding. He went step by step and made sure I understood each and every problem, and gave me tips and personalized information to help my specific needs. I would recommend Nibret to everyone. I could not have accomplished such success without his help. Equally important, Nibret is punctual and ready to start immediately. He is very professional and makes you feel at ease. He is well educated and it shows in his exceptional teaching abilities. Nibret makes every minute count. I am looking forward to working with him to complete my statistics and chemistry classes.
Carolyn K. from Bowie, MD Nibret has been a wonderful tutor for my son and has helped him greatly improve his grades in Algebra 2 / Trig. Early on, we worked out a plan for how to tackle my son's specific needs, and since then Nibret has always been willing to spend as much time as necessary to make sure that my son was grasping every concept. We would definitely call on Nibret again if need be.
Sharon W. from Bowie, MD Nibret tutored my son during a summer Calculus course that was very fast paced and intense. He spent many hours teaching and reinforcing the material my son learned in the lectures. Nibret was patient with my son by going back and teaching my son the basics of the subject and assisting him in coursework. I have had a few attempts at tutoring for my son, but Nibret was the best. My son stated Nibret's assistance helped him pass the class with a B and that he would have most likely failed or struggled passing. His mathematics background makes him a great tutor for algebra,pre-cal and calculus. I would highly recommend him to anyone simply because of his time flexibility, great patience, and understanding of most math material. I give Nibret an honest A grade overall.
Mary C. from Washington, DC My son is trying to prepare for BC calculus and Nebret has skillfully brought him through the major concepts. My son looks forward to calculus and seeing Nebret. We are lucky we found him!
Henry D. from Columbia, MD I had Nibret tutoring me in Calculus over this summer while I was staying with my family. Nibret is a great tutor and is effective at what he does. Since the first day we met, he was able to understand the difficulties I had with certain concepts, and come up with an approach to tackle it. One of Nibret's best qualities lies in his ability to identify a fundamental concept that is required for a specific concept, and his willingness to go over it in order to sharpen a student's understanding. Regarding scheduling, as much as possible, he tries to accommodate the interests of his students. In addition Nibret is patient and has a great personality that is very much appreciated. Overall, Nibret is a great tutor who delivers results.
Sheila G. from Derwood, MD Nibret is helping my 17 year old son with precalucus and physics. He has been helpful in getting the problems across to him. He is patient and kind. We hope to have his help for the year...as the work gets harder!
QuoVadis F. from Raleigh, NC Nibret's expertise has proven thus far to be quite effective in supporting my granddaughter's success in Algebra I. Her first two test scores were an "B" and "A" respectively. We are very pleased with the level of instruction he is providing. He is easy to work with and extremely knowledgeable.
Wale A. from Derwood, MD Nibret is very patient and always punctual. My son has maintained a grade "A" in Geometry so far since the beginning of the sessions.
Janet B. from Washington, DC I have greatly appreciated the professionalism and deep knowledge of subject matter that Nibret has brought to all of the tutoring in AP Physics with my son. Nibret has greatly inspired and motivated him.
Gayah F. from Gaithersburg, MD Nibret is an impeccable math tutor. He helped me get through an incredibly challenging class (Calculus II). Nibret drove out of his way to come to the library where I live and gave a tutoring session that was extremely helpful. He was very flexible about scheduling, and always quick to respond to my calls and text messages. Before getting Nibret's help, I did not know much about the topics that we were studying in class. I was lost and did not score as high as I would have liked to on my first midterm. After working with Nibret, my understanding improved in a matter of minutes! I was not only able to understand the material but I enjoyed learning it as well. Nibret is a people person, not like other tutors who merely just fight with you to understand the material. Nibret showed me how to derive equations, how my teacher would like for us to solve the problem and he also showed shortcuts which is a plus! After getting help from Nibret I wanted to learn more math. He makes the session fun, clear, engaging, and worth the time you are spending, something that most tutors lack. I scored significantly above average on my following quizzes and tests. His tutoring improved my understanding greatly. I highly recommend him!
Tamara W. from Silver Spring, MD Nibret has been helping my daughter with pre-calculus and SAT math for a short time and she has already improved her math grade significantly. Nibret is very patient and thorough and he makes sure that she understands the material. He is very conscientious and flexible about the scheduling. We highly recommend this tutor.
Casey P. from Bethesda, MD Nibret is a solid physics teacher. He cares about the progress of each student. Highly recommended. He is also easily accessible.
Rhonda G. from Bowie, MD Nibret is very knowledgeable and professional. He is well prepared and engages my son who would rather be left alone. However, my son is pleased with the progress he's making in his class. He attributes his current success partially to his sessions with Nibret who expects him to be prepared each time.
Beth M. from Silver Spring, MD We could not be more pleased with Nibret. He is patient, thorough, professional, and very knowledgeable. I wish we would have found him sooner. We fully intend to keep working with him through stats and calculus. I highly recommend him.
Edgar C. from Rockville, MD In just the first couple of lessons alone, I have felt like I have been able to understand a whole lot more of the terms that my teacher couldn't teach me with the help of Nibret. He was very punctual, arriving on time and most of all he was very friendly, patient and always made sure that I understood everything he was teaching me. I continue to look forward to working with him and I am anxious to see how much he will make a difference in my learning experience in algebra 2! UPDATE: After more lessons i have raised my grades significantly from an E-D grade to a solid high percentage B+ with the help of Nibret. Even my teacher has taken notice to my improvement in my grades as she has congratulated me for the work I have put in to learn from such a great tutor!
