About Zahra

With over 10 years of experience in the software industry, I have made the decision to pursue a PhD in order to fulfill my passion for learning and teaching. My doctoral research is focused on modeling the behaviors of large-scale distributed software systems deployed in cloud environments, with a specific emphasis on studying performance predictability criteria.

As a result of my PhD research, I became knowledgeable and passionate about math especially probability, statistics, stochastic processes, queuing theory and Markov Chains and would love to help students in those areas.

My professional background encompasses not only industry experience as a software engineer, but also a strong academic foundation. I hold an undergraduate degree in Software Engineering, a master's degree in Artificial Intelligence, and I am currently pursuing a PhD in Electrical and Computer Engineering, focusing on developing a unified theory of performance predictability in software systems. This diverse combination of industry and academic expertise equips me with a broad understanding of various core software engineering areas, enabling me to effectively teach a wide range of math and software engineering courses, including interdisciplinary subjects.

During my studies at the University of Victoria, I have had the privilege of teaching core undergraduate and graduate courses within both the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department and the Computer Science Department. The courses I have taught include Engineering Systems Software, Software System Scalability, Security, Privacy, and Data Analytics, Artificial Intelligence, and Software Testing. This breadth of teaching experience demonstrates my proficiency in delivering comprehensive instruction across the software engineering program.

I look forward to the possibility of contributing my knowledge and passion to your academic goals.

My approach is to create an interactive and supportive learning environment where my students can feel comfortable and motivated to explore new concepts and gain a deep understanding of the subjects.

As a tutor, I believe in uniqueness of each student, therefore, I adapt my teaching methodology and techniques to suit the unique needs and learning styles of each student for a personalized learning experience.

My teaching methodology focuses on active learning, where students actively participate in the learning process rather than being passive observers. I employ various techniques such as problem-solving activities, hands-on exercises and real-world examples to enhance comprehension and retention of mathematical and computer science concepts. I emphasize critical thinking skills and encourage students to ask questions, analyze problems, and develop their own solutions.

A typical lesson plan with me begins by assessing the student's current knowledge of the topic. Based on this assessment, I identify areas that require attention and build a lesson plan that targets those specific areas while reinforcing existing knowledge. Each lesson has clear learning objectives and a structured progression of topics, allowing for a step-by-step understanding of the material.

During the lesson, I adopt my teaching speed with the student's need and explain the materials in a clear and concise manner, using a combination of explanations, demonstrations, and practical examples. I encourage active participation from the student through discussions, problem-solving exercises, and coding challenges. I provide practice problems to reinforce learning and assess progress.

What sets me apart as a tutor is my diverse education and industry experience as a senior software engineer and university instructor for years which provided me with the exceptional ability to adapt to each student's unique needs and learning styles in the fields of math and computer science. I establish a positive and supportive rapport with my students, creating an environment where they feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes, and exploring complex concepts.

I am patient, approachable, and dedicated to the success of my students, adjusting my teaching techniques to accommodate different learning paces and preferences.

My tutoring services are suitable for a wide range of students, including those at different academic levels, from senior high school to undergrad and graduate-level university students.

Whether someone needs help with basic math concepts, advanced calculus, programming languages (C, C++, JAVA, Python, SQL), data structures, algorithms, AI, machine learning concepts or computer science principles, I am equipped to provide guidance and support. Whether it's homework assistance, exam preparation, or a deeper understanding of the subject, I am here to help you achieve your academic goals.
