About Maher

I am a 3rd year Environmental Engineering PhD student at Drexel University. I have been teaching students for 10 years. I have experience tutoring a wide array of science and math subjects, including Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Calculus, Physiology, Algebra, and Microbiology. I also tutor for college and grad school preparatory exams such as SAT, GRE, and MCAT. I have had countless students. Many have gone on to their preferred professional schools, including US medical schools.

In my field of Environmental Engineering, I apply my knowledge to research methods to treat wastewater and generate energy in the process. My research requires a broad knowledge across multiple fields, and I frequently train students in my lab.

About the lesson

I provide lessons to students from the secondary school to graduate level. My philosophy is simple. I believe any effective tutoring should explain even the most complex subjects in simple, understandable ways. Once difficult concepts have been explained in simple terms, a student will have the understanding and confidence to do well. For my lessons, I like to break down difficult concepts, and then continue to provide problems starting with easier problems and working up to more complex ones. Whenever a student is unable to complete a problem, I work with them through their thought process and show them exactly where they made the mistake. From repeated problems, my students learn how to apply concepts.

I needed help with math, and I had been struggling with it a lot. Maher made me really easily understand the concepts and over time it really got a lot less scary. Helped me do well on my SAT Math, I got a 780!

Maher is a phenomenal tutor. He has tutored me for many years, and I first met him when I was struggling with general chemistry. He explained the very difficult concepts to me in a way that made me not only understand them, but empowered me to pursue science further. After I graduated college, I continued tutoring with Maher, completed a Masters in Biomedical Sciences, completed my MCAT, and am now in medical school. He really helped me not only learn chemistry, but turn my life around and go from struggling with science to mastering it and becoming a doctor. He is an amazing tutor, and the way he breaks down subjects into basic and simple concepts stays with you for a long time.

Maher has been my tutor for 7 years now and he is truly extraordinary. He has the unique ability to make complex subjects so much simpler, and because of that trait, I have been able to succeed in the hardest subjects in the pre-medical field. It is truly because of him that I was able to reach my goal and finally get into medical school in the U.S. He is the greatest teacher I have ever had, and I attribute a great chunk of my success to this friendly genius.

Maher is an excellent student and a great teacher. He works well with all types of people because he is patient and understanding. He spends as much time as necessary to make things clear and simple so that the student can grasp the material. I have known him since he was about ten years old and watched him grow into a wonderful person.
