“Faruk’s strongest attribute is his ability to scaffold content. When teaching a more complicated subject, Faruk will, in a very deliberate manner, first provide instruction on the smallest, most elementary part of a concept. After he ensures that the class has mastered this, he builds on it in an effective manner, rarely overwhelming anyone with the size of the next step/part.”

“Faruk explains complicated material in ‘English’.”

“He knows the material extremely well. No question ever stumps him. Faruk can break down the hardest questions, and present them in a way that is easy to grasp.”

“Very approachable regardless of the topic. He breaks down complex problems in a very methodical way, and helps me to think of the best way to solve it.”

“Explains shortcut strategies to maximize time effectiveness; explains why potential answer choices are wrong, and outlines test traps; summarizes difficult concepts into what the test is looking for and the fundamentals behind it.”

“Faruk is extremely bright, and is great at explaining how to approach even the most difficult of questions. I was never left wondering how he answered a question.”

“Presents alternative methods to solve/approach problems and shortcuts; enthusiastic about teaching the material; never makes you feel like your question is unwarranted or ‘dumb’; great explanations of difficult math problems.”

“Well, his skills are not to be questioned at all. Over and above, I find him to be a very good person. I mean a good human being ready to help as much as he can. Stop him during class for any hard/silly question, and you’ll get the exact explanation.”

“Steady, clear, thorough lessons and explanations. Drives to the core issue or common confusion of a problem or topic – very insightful. Talented teacher, able to create sample questions on the fly to answer specific student questions. Faruk is an amazing teacher.”

“I would have taken higher level math courses in high school and college if he were my instructor. Honestly, have never had a teacher like him.”
