I am a physicist with a Master’s degree and nearly a decade of experience tutoring college-level students in various subjects. I have also contributed to the field with published research, including a paper titled "Fitting neutrino masses in a realistic intersecting D-braneworld." My passion is helping students unlock their true potential.
My tutoring style is excited and energetic, aiming to make learning both enjoyable and effective. I love to push students to discover more by revealing hidden and often untaught connections between concepts, deepening their understanding. I’m flexible in my approach, presenting topics in various ways to match each student's unique learning style, ensuring that the material truly resonates with them.
One of my most rewarding experiences was with an engineering student who was feeling discouraged because they couldn't see the connection between abstract math, integral techniques in Calculus II, and their field. Sensing their frustration, I introduced them to real-world applications in aerodynamics, showing how these mathematical concepts are crucial in designing efficient aircraft. This newfound understanding not only helped them grasp the material but also reignited their passion for engineering. They went from feeling lost to excelling in the course and gaining a deeper appreciation for the math behind their future career.
I am a true nerd at heart. When I'm not tutoring, I enjoy creating one-of-a-kind custom video game controllers. This hobby has allowed me to apply my knowledge of circuit boards and learn new skills like soldering and using 3-D modeling software. My next goal is to incorporate 3-D printing into my designs, all in the quest to create the perfect video game controller.
