About Rakesh
Engineering Excellence: High-Level Tutoring & Academic Mentorship Since 2014
I bring over a decade of experience teaching and mentoring students in Mechanical Engineering, Materials Science, Physics, and Mathematics. My tutoring journey spans leading institutions including Imperial College London, where I also conduct cutting-edge research in mechanical engineering, computational materials, dislocation dynamics, and nuclear materials performance.
With a strong academic background—PhD in Mechanical Engineering (IIT), MEng in Industrial Materials & Metallurgy, and BEng in Mechanical Engineering—I combine deep subject expertise with practical engineering insight.
Higher Education Expertise
University-Level Teaching & Tutoring: 1400+ hours across key subjects such as Solid & Structural Mechanics, Fluid Mechanics, Strength of Materials, Finite Element Method (FEM), Materials Science, and Nuclear Engineering.
Private Tutoring: 100+ hours of personalised coaching in physics, mathematics, and core engineering modules.
Language Support: Instruction in English with an emphasis on academic writing, technical report preparation, and clear communication.
My Teaching Approach
I tailor each session to the student’s goals—whether mastering advanced engineering concepts, catching up on challenging modules, or preparing for exams and coursework. Each lesson ends with a clear progress update, outlining what was covered, strengths observed, and recommended next steps.
Innovative Online Tutoring
Using digital writing tablets, screen sharing, interactive whiteboards, and simulation tools, I deliver highly engaging online sessions that replicate the effectiveness of in-person teaching—accessible globally with no loss in quality.
Empower Your Engineering Learning
Gain clarity, confidence, and top-tier understanding from a tutor who blends research excellence, real engineering experience, and a proven record of student success. Whether you’re a university student, a professional learner, or preparing for competitive exams, I’m here to help you excel.

Innovative Engineering Tutoring Designed for Real Results
Every student learns differently, and I design customised study plans that align with your goals, exam timelines, course content, and current understanding. I also estimate the tutoring and self-study hours needed to ensure steady, measurable progress throughout your engineering programme.
To make sessions engaging and intuitive, I relate complex engineering principles to real-world applications and your personal interests. Whether it’s analysing mechanics through computer simulations motion or understanding stress analysis via real components, I turn abstract theory into clear, practical insight.
Each lesson ends with a structured progress update, summarising what we covered, strengths demonstrated, challenges identified, and suggested next steps. This report is emailed promptly, giving students—and parents, where applicable—a transparent view of ongoing improvement.
I prefer online tutoring using tools such as digital drawing tablets, interactive boards, and platforms like Skype or Zoom, but can deliver in-person sessions if and when needed. This setup combines the quality of face-to-face teaching with the flexibility and convenience of virtual learning.
I work best with motivated students who are committed to improving their academic performance. To ensure fairness and consistent support, I maintain a firm booking policy, with exceptions only for genuine medical emergencies supported by documentation.
Empower your engineering education with personalised, research-driven, and results-focused tutoring.
