  • Tutored undergraduate students in Mathematics, Physics, Embedded Systems, Electronics and C Programming. Responsibilities included conveying the material in a simple way that helped the students understand the subjects, making sure that this understanding is reflected in their grades. This greatly improved my communication and presentation skills. It also gave me the challenge of continually increasing my knowledge of the basics and quickly learning new concepts. It made me very good at managing my time and organising my schedule.
