About Me

I have obtained Master degree in Electrical Engineering from University of Massachusetts and Ph.D. degree in Mechanical Engineering from University of Texas. I am interested in sharing my knowledge with students, in helping them understand the subject and solving problems. I believe a good tutor can provide guidance, leading students through a thought process in solving problems. A good tutor will motivate the student to think and propose his or her own solutions and develop independent learning.

Hobbies & Interests

During spare time I enjoy relaxing and going out with family and friends. I enjoy natural science activities, listening to music, biking and swimming. I also enjoy sketching and painting. Furthermore, I have a keen interest in travel and have visited countries in Central America and Europe.

Q&A with Xiang

“What is teaching about?” —a question that different people may have different answers for. Essentially, it is a transfer of knowledge from the teacher to the students. It can be just, simply, state the truth about a subject; or it can provide an exercise to the students so they can understand the knowledge or become familiar with the tools. Yes, essentially that is what teaching is. But it can go far beyond that, as well. A good teacher can provide guidance, leading students through a thought process in solving problems. A good teacher will motivate the student to think and propose his or her own solutions. A good teacher will guide each student through the right path toward achieving his or her goals. Yes, I believe everyone has their own way of teaching, but I prefer the way that should have a great deal more than just passing knowledge. Teaching is a process that intimately involves the teacher and students together to share the knowledge and the critical thinking. Eventually the students are motivated to develop their own interests in the subject, and they can go far beyond what can be taught in class.
