EDUCATIONAL PHILOSOPHY
Students need lessons that revolve around the skills that they should acquire and not just the information that they need to digest. Therefore it is important to continuously present students with new challenging problems and tasks so they can develop creative problem solving skills and an intuitive understanding of the material.
It is important to help students see the reasoning behind the concepts that they need to learn. The material should be presented in an interactive manner so as to help students anticipate the next concept in a lesson before the teacher states it explicitly.
EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND
I am currently an undergraduate Computer Engineering student at McGill. I transferred to McGill from the American University of Beirut where I completed my freshman year and my first year in Computer Engineering.
TEACHING EXPERIENCE
I have experience tutoring students one-on-one.
EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES
In high school I was a member of the debate club. I also participated in a number of community service activities which include helping children in an orphanage home with homework and helping out with their Easter Egg hunt. In American University of Beirut I was a member of the Human Rights and Peace Club and Astronomy Club. I signed up for Robotics Club at McGill as well as Karate classes.
STANDARDIZED TEST RESULTS
In my SAT exams, I received scores of 730, 770 and 800 in Chemistry, Math and Physics, respectively. These were all out of a possible 800.
