Calculus I Explained: Limits, Derivatives, and Real-World Applications
In this introductory calculus course, we start by demystifying limits and continuity, then move to the powerful concept of derivatives and their applications in real-world scenarios. Learn how to compute and interpret derivatives using rules like the product, quotient, and chain rules. Apply your skills to solve optimization problems, model motion, and understand the rate of change in fields like biology, physics, and economics. With a balance of rigorous practice and conceptual clarity, I help students tackle this gateway subject with confidence and precision.

This course builds a solid foundation in algebraic and trigonometric concepts essential for success in calculus and beyond. Students will explore polynomial and rational functions, exponential and logarithmic expressions, complex numbers, and trigonometric identities with a strong focus on conceptual understanding and real-world applications. Through clear explanations, problem-solving strategies, and visual aids, I guide students to develop fluency with functions and prepare them for the analytical rigor of college-level mathematics. Ideal for high school students, college prep, or adult learners returning to math.
In this second course in the calculus sequence, we’ll explore integration techniques, applications of definite integrals, and the world of sequences and series. Students will learn substitution, integration by parts, partial fractions, and improper integrals, then dive into convergence tests and power series representations of functions. I incorporate visuals, technology, and contextual examples to make these abstract topics more intuitive. Whether you’re enrolled in a course or self-studying, I can help you master the tools needed for solving complex problems with confidence.
This course provides a deep dive into trigonometric functions, right triangle ratios, unit circle analysis, graphs, and trigonometric identities. You’ll also explore inverse trig functions, solving equations, and applications like modeling periodic phenomena. I emphasize conceptual understanding through visualization, problem-solving strategies, and connections to physics and engineering. Whether you’re struggling with sine waves or need to prepare for a major exam, this course provides structure, clarity, and support every step of the way.
This course focuses on core concepts in linear algebra: systems of equations, matrix operations, vector spaces, determinants, eigenvalues, and linear transformations. These topics are foundational for fields like computer science, engineering, machine learning, and economics. I emphasize clear explanations, geometric intuition, and connections to real-world applications. This course can serve as either a complete course or targeted help for exams and homework.

Operations Research 1 & 2, Project Management, Production and Operations Management, Production Planning, Engineering Economics and Accounting, Supply Chains, Stress Analysis, and moreI am Engineer Abdel Rahman Abdel Aal, a university instructor specializing in explaining engineering subjects in a simplified and interactive manner via Zoom.
God willing, our lessons aim to provide a deep and systematic understanding of the curriculum content, through simplified and interactive explanations that adapt to each student's level.
🔹 Short tests are given periodically to measure understanding and stimulate concentration, while clarifying the differences between similar concepts to prevent distraction.
🔹 I rely on various examples, patience, and gradual delivery of information in my explanation, until the student reaches full understanding with confidence.
🔹 There is continuous follow-up via WhatsApp or Telegram throughout the semester to answer questions and help the student with studying and solving problems as they occur.
💻 The explanation is conducted online via Zoom, with a full recording of each session provided, so that the student can review it at any time.
🎯 Our goal is not just to pass the subject, but to excel in it and understand it in an easy and consistent manner, God willing.

Tips and Tricks for Sociology Essay Writing, Targeted to GCSE and AS/A Level Students.I am eager to help young people feel confident when writing sociology essays. I will place an emphasis on deconstructing the questions students are given by encouraging them to reword the question to offer a different perspective on it. In addition, the main aim of a sociology essay is to convince the reader more and more of the argument you have claimed in the introduction. I want to help students do this by helping them follow the PEAL structure, i.e. Point, Evidence, Analysis, Link back to question. I have found this a very effective and coherent way of structuring an essay. I have studied Sociology for 7 years now, at AS/A Level, Undergraduate Level and now at MSc level at LSE. I was awarded First-Class Honours in my undergraduate as well as 'Best Dissertation of the year' by the School of Humanities and Social Sciences. I am seeking a potential career in academia so I truly feel passionate about engaging with the lesson plans on this platform and helping students feel confident in their essay writing.
