About Tom
I hold a Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of California, Irvine, and I am a licensed California Professional Engineer (PE) with over 15 years of licensure and more than 20 years of industry experience. I have worked on real-world engineering projects across multiple disciplines, giving me a strong practical foundation beyond textbooks. In my teaching, I focus on clear explanations, structured problem-solving, and helping students truly understand engineering concepts rather than memorizing formulas. I enjoy working with undergraduate and graduate students, as well as professionals preparing for FE or PE exams, and I tailor each lesson to the student’s goals, background, and learning style.

I hold a Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of California, Irvine, and I am a licensed California Professional Engineer (PE) with over 15 years of licensure and 20 years of real-world industry experience.
I teach Mechanical Engineering concepts with a strong focus on practical understanding, problem-solving, and real engineering applications. My goal is to help students not only succeed academically, but also build the skills and engineering mindset needed for internships, exams, and professional practice.
Subjects I teach include:
Statics & Dynamics
Mechanics of Materials (Strength of Materials)
Thermodynamics
Fluid Mechanics
Heat Transfer
Machine Design
Engineering Mathematics
FE / PE exam preparation (Mechanical)
I adapt my teaching style to each student’s level and learning goals, whether you are an undergraduate struggling with core concepts, a graduate student, or a working engineer preparing for exams.
Clear explanations, structured problem-solving, and practical insights from industry are at the core of my teaching approach.
