About Stephanie

I am a passionate mechanical engineering tutor with a unique blend of academic and athletic. Currently pursuing my Master's at UC Berkeley in Mechanical Engineering with a concentration on Assistive Robotics, I bring both theoretical knowledge and hands-on experience to my teaching. My background as a D1 swimmer at Cal has instilled in me the discipline, perseverance, and goal-oriented mindset that I apply to my tutoring approach. With a strong academic record (3.6 GPA), I've mastered a comprehensive range of technical skills including programming (Python, MATLAB, Arduino, C/C++), robotics and mechatronics (PID Control, motor systems, inverse kinematics), CAD and fabrication (SolidWorks, LabVIEW, machine shop skills). My coursework has given me the foundation for a portfolio of projects that include: -Dish and Dash: the automatic waste sorting robot that identifies dishes and compost and stores them accordingly -Laser Cat Toy: Laser cat toy with IOT embedded connection that moves a laser to random positions for cat play -Automatic Cheese Grater: Capstone project combining mechatronics, electrical engineering, and Arduino software to automatically shred cheese at the press of a button. My teaching philosophy is guided by some of the best swim coaches in the world, who have been on World Championship and Olympic teams. I believe in personalized instruction that adapts to each student's learning style and pace. I mentor students not just in course material but in developing essential skills like time management, systematic problem-solving, and resilience. Whether working with middle school students or undergraduates, I create engaging, hands-on learning experiences that foster genuine understanding and confidence.

My teaching method centers on problem solving and visualization. I use a combination of visual models and analogies to break down complex subjects, and guided problem solving with an emphasis on how to solve the problem and others like it. I want my students to understand the point of what they are learning and how it will apply to industry and beyond. My typical lesson plan includes: -Concept Overview -Example Problem -Guided Practice -Real Life Applications -Reflections What sets me apart: -Elite Athletic Background: As a D1 swimmer at Cal, NCAA qualifier, and PAC-12 champion, I bring the same systematic learning to my academic teaching. -Mentorship Beyond Coursework: I guide students not just in academics but in developing essential professional skills like time management, project planning, and teamwork—drawing from my academic and athletic background Who My Lessons Are For: -Middle School Students: Introduction to engineering concepts, physics fundamentals, and beginning robotics -High School Students: AP Physics, engineering electives, robotics team support, and competition preparation -Undergraduate Students: Core mechanical engineering courses including: Statics and Dynamics Thermodynamics Fluid Mechanics Machine Design Control Systems Robotics CAD and simulation software Mechatronics
