"Hi! I am a teacher and enthusiast for Physics at all levels - I have a Bachelor's degree in Astronomy-Physics and a Master's degree in Theoretical Physics from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. I have tutored and taught Physics for over 15 years now, and employ a variety of teaching styles to help students learn and comprehend material. I always try to foster a sense of curiosity and self-confidence in clients, endeavoring to create students who are motivated to ask lots of questions and practice problem-solving for themselves, not just take my word for things.

I have teaching experience both one-on-one and in classroom settings, and have been tutoring virtually online for the past year as well. My favorite subjects to teach are high school physics, electricity and magnetism, quantum physics, and thermodynamics. My focus in teaching these subjects is on delivering clear explanations to the student, emphasizing both conceptual understanding and mathematical reasoning. When we work on problem-solving, I will ask you what you think we should do, and guide you towards solving the problem for yourself, not just give you an answer with no understanding of how we got there. I find this is a highly successful strategy for encouraging students of all levels and backgrounds to achieve their best on coursework and exams.

I welcome students of all ages, and have taught students from middle school, high school, college, master's, up to life-long learners delving back into subjects they abandoned in the past, or perhaps picking up a new interest for the first time! I offer structured coursework, homework help, content and exam review, problem-solving assistance, and well as general instruction and assistance with anything physics-related. Is there a scientific news or journal article you'd like to understand, or a research idea you'd like to explore? Let's see what we can learn together!" less...
