Mathematics
Mathematics is my bread and butter. It is the basis of my Aeronautical engineering degree. I have tutored this course at all levels and professionally. All my students have achieved very high grade because I always demystify maths and tailor my lesson to ensure the student fully understands and can attempt questions on his/her own and pass.
