Fun Facts

I love playing sports, I love puns and clever jokes and plays on words. I love Scrabble but don’t like Words with Friends because you can use words that don’t really exist. I love working on cars so i initially declared my major as mechanical engineering but i switched to electrical simply because i fell in love with microprocessors.

About Me

My name is Idris but my friends call me E, because apparently they have problems with a two syllable name "i know right". I was born in Lagos,Nigeria, my family moved to the states in 2002. I have a passion for programming but not the patience to keep working on a code, if it doesn't work the first couple of times then oh well. I attend a community college first then transferred to a four year school which in today's financial situation i think is a GREAT idea, i know it worked for me.

I tutored most of my classmates in college and i can usually be found contributing at my college's student help center.

I believe the best way to learn is to teach, so i like to show the student a method and then have them teach it back to me. This is especially useful for math as you can usually come up with many examples of the same method. If this method doesn't work then i move on to another way, but for the most part i find it very effective.
