BSc. Physics, Mathematics Minor, three credits from English minor

I'm fairly flexible as to my techniques. I've taught a few courses while doing graduate work, so I'm able to lecture and work with groups. I've also tutored high school and college students. I can help with homework, do examples, explain ideas, or try anything else that you think may help you improve as a student.

Algebra 1

Topics include the following: factoring; exponents and radicals; systems of linear equations, complex fractions; and inequalities.

Algebra 2

The assumed material is a detailed study of polynomial, exponential, and logarithmic functions, that employs skills learned from algebra 1.

Calculus

The following topics are considered standard:

Functions, limits, continuity, derivative, definite integral, applications, exponential and logarithmic functions, definite integral, applications, L'Hospital's Role, techniques of integration, limits of sequence, infinite series, polar coordinates, solid analytic geometry, functions of several variables, partial differentiation, multiple integration, vector fields, line and surface integrals, Stokes' and Green's theorems.

Physics

Physics I:
Newtonian mechanics, oscillations and waves, fluids, heat and thermodynamics.

Physics II:
Electricity, magnetism, DC and AC circuits, light, geometrical and physical optics, and introduction to modern physics.

Physics III:
Special relativity, introduction to quantum theory, Schroedinger equation, the hydrogen atom, many-electron atoms, statistical physics, molecules, and solids.

Physics IV:
Conduction in metals; semiconductors; superconductivity;... Read More

Prealgebra

Prealgebra covers arithmetic of fractions and signed numbers and beginning equations in one variable.

Precalculus

Topics include: graphing equations in two variables; functions and their graphs; linear, quadratic, polynomial, and rational functions; and exponential and logarithmic functions.

Trigonometry

The coursework I took was intended to develop the properties of the trigonometric and inverse trigonometric functions, for preparation of its usage in calculus.

Astronomy

Topics include: The sun as a star, physical properties and evolution of stars, principles of spectroscopy as applied to astronomy, the major stages of stellar evolution, binary stars, variable stars, star clusters, gaseous nebulae, stellar motions and distribution, Milky Way and external galaxies, expanding universe, cosmic time scale, origin of elements.

Historical and philosophical development of our physical picture of the universe, evolution of galaxies, origin of the elements,... Read More

Proofreading

I can read your paper, and offer constructive criticism to whatever point you wish. It can range from checking grammar and spelling, to methods to strengthen one's writing (quotations, avoidance of passive voice, phrasing for coherency, etc...).

Physical Science

I've had coursework in biology; physics; earth & space science; and astronomy. Given a description of what you need, I would be able to help on a topic by topic basis, only if I felt qualified.

Differential Equations

As a physicist, it was vital to learn differential equations. During undergrad I took both Ordinary and Partial differential equations. I did well in both courses.

Linear Algebra

I've taken the standard undergraduate linear algebra course, and then went on to learn multilinear algebra to do differential geometry. The material is used extensively in physics.
