Fun Facts

I like do a lot of interesting things after school. I would go hiking in Spring, swimming in Summer, Camping in Fall and skiing in winter. I think we can learn new thing not only in class but also from nature. My favorite sport is playing table tennis indoor with my friends. Learning in graduate school in kind of tough thing, so doing sports can make me feel comfortable and do well in my future study.

About Me

Currently I am a graduate student in department of Mechanical Engineering in maryland/columbia">columbia">maryland/columbia">columbia-university">maryland/columbia">columbia">maryland/columbia">Columbia University. I completed my Bachelor Degree in Northern Arizona University(NAU) with overall GPA 3.94 and I just graduate in this May. I've been on the Dean's List for 3 years in a row as well. Meanwhile I got both minor in Electrical Engineering and Mathematics department. After my graduate from maryland/columbia">columbia">maryland/columbia">columbia-university">maryland/columbia">columbia">maryland/columbia">Columbia University, I will go back to China and be a Design Engineer.

In my undergraduate study in Northern Arizona University, I worked as a grader for many courses including Vibration, Fluid Mechanics and Thermodynamics. Meanwhile I also help students with their homework problems as a tutor after class. I also worked as a TA for the Statics class in Civil Engineering. I also created worksheets and practice quizzes to help students prepare for exams and helped student raise the grade from a 70% to an 85%.

Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime. So I think the most important thing to teach student is teaching him the study skill instead of the solutions. As a tutor, I will create some worksheets and practice quizzes more related to the textbook by my myself to help students prepare for exams. Every week I will ask my students some feedbacks to help me improve my tutoring approaches.
