About Joseph
I have experience working as a teaching assistant (TA) for the Department of Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering at the University of Notre Dame. I held office hours for classes of over 100 students for Engineering Mechanics and Intro to Engineering Computing courses. Most recently, I was a TA for the Summer Science Program, a high school astrophysics program affiliated with CalTech, Harvey Mudd, and MIT.
Perhaps the most enjoyable thing about helping students is seeing them understand a concept and being able to apply it to solve other problems. Thus, my goal when helping anyone is to help them grasp the topic rather than simply providing an answer.
Degree:
Bachelor of Science in Aerospace Engineering, University of Notre Dame, 2020

I like to follow the process below:
1. Learn about the student's background and experience with the material
2. Ask what, if any, attempts have been made to solve a problem or understand the topic
3. If the student has sufficient knowledge of the fundamentals required by the problem, I would ask guiding questions and give suggestions on solving the problem.
4. If not, I would provide these fundamentals then try to ask guiding questions.
5. Once the student has had time to think through the problem, I would go over my own approach and outline my specific thought process.
I have worked with a wide variety of students, from early high school to college. Most notably, the high school students who I have helped range from those who are struggling with Algebra to those who are learning college-level Calculus and Linear Algebra.
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Have I given myself ample time to struggle with the topic or problem?
Have I tried to understand similar/example problems? When looking at examples, did I focus on why and how they arrived at the answer?
