About Lluvia


Bio

Hi, I'm Lluvia and I love physics. The only thing I love more than physics is teaching physics. I won Teaching Associate of the Year when I got my master's in physics and subsequently became a Professor at a local junior college where I taught physics (with and without calculus) and astronomy for nine years. I left that profession to work in what I am most passionate about, Individual Teaching.

Since I spent quite a bit of time as a teacher, I know and understand the teacher's...

Hi, I'm Lluvia and I love physics. The only thing I love more than physics is teaching physics. I won Teaching Associate of the Year when I got my master's in physics and subsequently became a Professor at a local junior college where I taught physics (with and without calculus) and astronomy for nine years. I left that profession to work in what I am most passionate about, Individual Teaching.

Since I spent quite a bit of time as a teacher, I know and understand the teacher's perspective. That is, I know teachers' favorite problems and why these problems are so ubiquitous. I am familiar with most high school and college textbooks. I have access to the testbank questions that teachers use as their class material.

As an educator, I enjoy sharing my love of physics with my students and it truly gives me joy to watch them improve their understanding of the concepts. As a tutor, I know students and parents wish to improve their grades and prepare for exams (such as an AP Exams.) These are the meter sticks with which I measure progress and I adjust my methods as I receive new data to maximize learning in subsequent meetings.
