ONE-ON-ONE FE EXAM TUTORING

FE exam tutoring, one student at a time

Helping you pass your FE exam is my top priority, and I know how overwhelming it can be to stay on top of everything you need to study. That’s what this is for: live one-on-one sessions with me, Farouq. I tutor across FE disciplines and the Civil FE is my specialty.

WHAT HAPPENS IN A SESSION

How my FE exam tutoring works

Every session is $100 an hour, live and one-on-one, and it’s built around the NCEES FE exam specifications and the FE Reference Handbook for your discipline. Here’s what we actually do together.

01

We start with a diagnostic

Before we study anything, I want to see where the points are actually leaking. A short problem set across the knowledge areas on your FE exam specifications tells us that in one session, instead of guessing.

02

A study plan you’ll actually keep

Most of my students are working full time with a family at home. You’ve got five or six usable hours a week, not twenty. We build the plan around that, then adjust it as your practice scores move.

03

We solve problems together

I’m not going to lecture at you for an hour. We work FE type questions side by side until you can read a question, spot the method, and set it up without freezing.

04

Handbook and calculator drills

Knowing the concept isn’t enough if you can’t find it. We drill searching the FE Reference Handbook under time pressure, plus the TI-36X Pro and Casio fx-115 functions that cut real minutes off your exam.

05

Homework, and those silly mistakes

You get work between sessions and we review it in the next one. We also hunt down the silly mistakes, because for most students that’s the fastest set of points sitting on the table.

06

Timed practice before exam day

In the last few weeks we move to full-length practice under real conditions, then review every miss. The goal is simple: exam day should feel familiar, not new.

LOOKING FOR A CIVIL FE TUTOR?

The Civil FE is my specialty, but I can still help you with the fundamentals

If you’re sitting the Civil FE, you get the deepest version of what I do. It’s the exam I teach every day: all 14 knowledge areas, rebuilt every time NCEES updates the specifications.

Sitting another discipline? I can still help you with the parts every FE exam shares. It doesn’t make sense for you to switch from tutor to tutor for each topic, so if I’m not the right fit for your discipline, I’ll tell you that before we book anything.

Shared across every FE discipline

  • Mathematics, probability and statistics
  • Ethics and professional practice
  • Engineering economics
  • Statics, dynamics and mechanics of materials
  • FE Reference Handbook navigation and calculator technique
  • Pacing, test-taking strategy and exam-day nerves

FE EXAM TUTORING AVAILABILITY

All booked for now. Please check back later.

I keep the number of private students small on purpose. Every session gets prepared for one person, and I’d rather do that properly than take on everybody. Right now there’s no availability.

I update this page when that changes, so check back. Engineers already inside my Civil FE course are offered openings first, since I already know their progress and where they’re losing points.

Farouq, FE exam tutor and Civil FE instructor at DirectHub

MEET YOUR FE EXAM TUTOR

Hi, I’m Farouq

I’m the instructor and founder at DirectHub. I took the FE exam and passed it on my first try, then spent years tutoring on some of the bigger prep platforms before building my own. Over 300 engineers have passed with my material, and a lot of them were five, ten, even twenty-five years out of school when they started.

Tutoring is where I can do the most for one person: your plan, your weak areas, your schedule. It’s also why I keep the number small, and why my calendar fills up. My goal is the same either way, to help you break down problems and give you the tools to make things stick.

  • Passed the FE and PE exams on the first try
  • Hundreds of students tutored one-on-one
  • 16,000+ engineers follow my FE lessons on YouTube
