Who am I?
I'm Cherish! I currently teach Mechanical Engineering at a University but I remember the days of being a struggling engineering student. Going to class, feeling confused and frustrated when trying to do assignments because I hadn't learned much in class seemed to be a regular occurrence.

I created STEM Course Prep to save today's engineering students from the same fate. I teach my courses in a way I would have liked to be taught... light on theory, heavy on examples.

Organization is key to learning so I also provide an outline of notes for my courses so you can stay organized and create a great resource for each course.

Textbook images shown are from 'Fundamentals of Engineering Thermodynamics 8th Edition' by Moran, Shapiro, Boettner, Bailey
