Remember how difficult it was the first time your physics teacher said you had to break forces down into components in order to use Newton's Second Law? Or when they asked you to find the maxima and minima of a complicated function? I sure do - I struggled with those things as well. But I found that with good teachers and some hard work, I was able to master difficult concepts. Through my struggle, I learned how to effectively instruct students in physics and math.
Teaching and tutoring have been my passion since high school. I used to tutor students after school because I loved to see that look of "ahh I get it now" on students' faces. A decade later, it has become my passion and career.
I am a Ph.D. candidate in physics, with MS/BS degrees already in Physics, and through earning my degrees I have obtained a deep understanding of the field, as well as plenty of experience teaching it. My enthusiasm for teaching physics and math is apparent in my tutoring sessions. This makes students excited to learn and therefore more receptive to the concepts.
Feel free to contact me and ask any questions you may have, whether they are about my qualifications, my teaching philosophy, or anything else that comes to mind!

In order to have a productive session, students should send me any information about what they are learning in class such as a syllabus, the name of the textbook, the rubric for a project, or the name of the lesson they are working on prior to the beginning of any session. This allows me to plan ahead for the session so that we can just jump right in when the session starts.
I look forward to hearing from you about your tutoring needs and coming up with a plan for success.
