I have worked with individual students and groups of students from 6th through 12the grade, as well as college students in the following areas: Geometry, Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Pre-Calculus, Calculus, Differential Equations (Linear and Non-Linear), Physical Science, Chemistry, Physics, C++, Visual C++, Visual Basic, Java, Databases (Oracle and DB2), SQL, and Perl. I am an instructor with various pre-college and college programs, where I assist students in the mathematics, science, and computer skills preparation to successfully continue their secondary school academics and prepare for or continue post-secondary education. The most interesting sessions occur when the students challenge me and I challenge the students. I employ diverse individual strategies to benefit the students. The highest honor I’ve received is the success and gratitude of the students I’ve taught.

Algebra 2

I have 5 years experience with high school Algebra 2 and 3 years experience with college Algebra 2. Algebra 2 is a continuation of work completed in Algebra 1. Algebra 2 expands on the basic concepts learned in Algebra 1. Algebra 2 will explore further the relationships between numbers, shapes, and measuring distances.

Calculus

I have 2 years experience with high school Calculus and 5 years experience with college Calculus. Calculus is the basis of further mathematics and science study. I am familiar with the use of Mathematica and MATLAB with Calculus instruction.

Chemistry

I have Chemistry degree from the University of Minnesota. My strongest knowledge and experience areas are General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Analytical Chemistry and Physical Chemistry. The next strongest knowledge and experience areas are Inorganic Chemistry, and Biochemistry. I also have strong knowledge and experience with the Mathematics of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering calculations.

Geometry

I have 4 years experience with high school Geometry and 2 years experience with college Geometry. Geometry has an emphasis on definitions, theorems, and postulates dealing with lines and planes, geometric equalities and inequalities, constructions of geometric figures, and measurement of segments, angles, area, and volume are emphasized.

Physics

My strongest knowledge and experience areas are General Physics, Vibration / Wave Physics, Classical Mechanics, Thermodynamics, and Electromagnetics.
