"I am an Electrical Engineer with work experience at Hughes Aircraft, Boeing (Anaheim), Raytheon, and Freescale Semiconductor (Tempe, AZ). I was working full-time at Freescale Semiconductor (now NXP) in Tempe, and enjoyed tutoring high school and college students, mostly near Tempe and Mesa AZ, but willing to drive further if needed. I'm now back in LA, creating tutoring programs designed for parent or student needs. My tutoring relies heavily on getting the student in the 'driver's seat' quickly, with problems that illuminate key concepts. My tutoring style is based on building confidence and joy in the subject, leading to the student's desire to become a life-long learner. I don't recommend cramming, or marathon sessions before a major test - my magic wand is in the shop." less...
