Hi, my name is Charles: Charlie, I graduated from California Polytechnic State University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Physics. I've also completed my teaching credential in California and Arizona and did some graduate work in Astrophysics. I have worked both as a classroom teacher and field Engineer. I also enjoy teaching and have taught for over 35 years at a private boarding preparatory school in Santa Barbara CA. At Cate School I have taught everything from basic freshman physics through AP physics, Engineering and Astronomy . I have also been the Varsity Water Polo coach for a program I started in 1987. I love teaching Physics because it gives me the opportunity to introduce students to the basics of the universe.

I decided to tutor after retiring from the classroom because it is my hope that I can pass on my joy of learning to others. I have been tutoring for several years on different platforms, so I'm experienced in being able to work through a variety of problems on in a variety of different ways.

If you're interested in getting together, I'm tutoring seven days a week I will adjust my schedule to suit your needs. Please contact me and I will be happy to schedule a time that we can meet and talk about ways I can help you

My daughter and son's physics tutor!

I highly recommend Charles as a physics tutor. My daughter began lessons with him and benefited so much that I soon decided to have my son learn from him as well. Both of them have gained confidence and a deeper understanding of physics thanks to his teaching. According to my kids, Charles’s explanations are clear and easy to follow, making even complex topics much more approachable. He doesn’t just provide answers but patiently guides them step by step, ensuring they truly grasp the concepts. I’m very grateful for his support and would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking a reliable and knowledgeable physics tutor.

Amazing tutor

Charles makes sure you really understand and also has some sense of humor to make the lesson more fun and engaging. Even if you think you don't know anything, Charles will make sure to get at least one thing out of you that you already know which you think you didn't; this also helped me to become a little more confident in the subject I am struggling in. Also, Charles is very patient and determined to helped his students. He really takes his time to understand what you need to work on. He is a great tutor.
