A root-solving approach has been designed to solve the two- point nonlinear boundary value problems by the use of all embedded functions in Mathematica. Without attributing to additional algorithms such as the shooting method, the root- solving approach employs NDSolve, Interpolation, and FindRoot to solve the nonlinear boundary value problems. Consequently, it removes the possible distractions from the decomposition of the high-order differential equations and learning the new numerical techniques. This approach is particularly valuable in teaching/learning engineering science based undergraduate courses because the focus can be placed on the physcis of the problem rather than the numerical methods for the solutions.
