Excel, Math, physics, Calculus, Civil Engineer, Math is life, and life is good.Math is life, and life is good.
Hello everyone! My name is Rafael. I have been teaching online and locally for over two years and I really enjoy it! I'm currently studying for my Ph.D.
If you are a parent who reads my profile, I do my best to make math enjoyable for students. It is a very difficult subject and sometimes students just need a boost of confidence and learn the basics. On the other hand, I like to encourage students who do well on their own. I like to challenge students and push their limits so that they become really strong mathematicians.
If you are a student reading my profile, know that I can really help you learn your math well and enjoy doing it! There are many different ways to explain any topic; my goal will be to make you comfortable with your skills.
That's all I have for you :) Have a wonderful day!

Preparation for TU Delft Aerospace Engineering entrance exam80% of my students got accepted in the 2025 exam, I am sure you I can help you out in the 2026 exam!
TU Delft is Europe's most prestigious university for aerospace studies, preparing some of the best engineers. However the selection procedure is tough and demanding, and only those prepared have a chance to succeed.
As a TU Delft student, I know from first hand how stressfull this process is, and can therefore help you succeed in the preparation of these exams. I have previous experience as a tutor back in high school, helping students improve their grades from Cs to As.
Moreover, I have an extensive knowledge on the subjects tested on these exams, having taken them myself and having completed the courses at university with excellent grades.
Throughout the class, I will use a presentation to explain the main concepts of each exam (Maths, Physics and Aerospace Engineering), focusing on those subjects the student is struggling with most. After this, I will help the student complete some practice excercises, and then assign extra practice to complete on their own time. These exercises will then be reviewed in the following class to ensure the topics have been understood.
I am looking forward to help you in your journey as an aerospace engineer!
