About Me
I'm a Master's student and research intern in the robotics labs at EPFL writing my thesis on bio-inspired flying robots. Having attended an international high school in my native Costa Rica and completed my bachelor's degree in Manchester, UK I have interacted with students from a wide range of educational systems, and can adapt my teaching to the needs of individual students.

I believe maths and physics should be taught with practical applications in mind. Students should never find themselves wondering "what's the point of learning this?" or "where do all these equations even come from?". I use examples based on interesting real-life problems - mostly from the realm of mechanical/aerospace engineering- and try to connect different topics to keep students motivated and interested.
