Civil Engineering is one of my top subjects! I am a Geotechnical Engineer (a discipline of Civil Engineering) with a M.S. in Civil Engineering and 3 years of practical experience. I area of focus is primarliy soil-structure interaction but I maintain basic knowledge of hydrology, open channel flow, tranportation, structural engineering and general civil engineering.
I am very hands on. I like to first show how a problem is done, discuss the purpose of each step and then the student work the problem. From there I prefer to have students work problems and ask questions as they come up. After each problem is complete I then review the problem with the student.
As a graudate student I was a held a postion as a Graudate Research Assistant for the Geotechnical Lab. As such I taught undergraduate students the theory behind laboratory test, what each test provides the engineer and how to conduct the test. Furthermore I assisted undergraduate students with homework problems and helped them prepare for tests.
