About James


Bio

I'm currently a College Physics Professor, but I have been tutoring for years. Tutoring is different than teaching, and I find it rewarding. I like what I do!

I received my Master of Science degree in Applied Physics from East Carolina University. My thesis was on Particle Induced X-Ray Emission (PIXE). I constructed a PIXE chamber then used ECU's particle accelerator to bombard targets, thus emitting characteristic X-Rays that helped to unveil the target's chemical makeup.

I'm currently a College Physics Professor, but I have been tutoring for years. Tutoring is different than teaching, and I find it rewarding. I like what I do!

I received my Master of Science degree in Applied Physics from East Carolina University. My thesis was on Particle Induced X-Ray Emission (PIXE). I constructed a PIXE chamber then used ECU's particle accelerator to bombard targets, thus emitting characteristic X-Rays that helped to unveil the target's chemical makeup.

During my seven years of attendance at university, I served as a College Reading and Learning Association (CRLA) Level 3 "Master" Physics tutor. I was also a teaching assistant for five of those years.

I have taught online and in person for four different higher learning institutions over the past five years. I have over 5000 hours of experience in tutoring physics and mathematics -- both online and in person. Additionally, as a Sergeant in the United States Marine Corps, I was tasked with the training and education of junior and senior enlisted personnel. I have been teaching in one capacity or another for over two decades.

I'm pretty flexible, and I am available to tutor online via chat, voice, or video. We can also meet in person if you prefer.

Please reach out if you are in need of a highly qualified teacher, in doing so you can be confident in your potential for academic success this semester!

Knowledgeable, patient and thorough!!

Communicates well, ease of making appointments and review of what was learned during lesson! So pleased with James and will definitely use again whrn daughter has Physics 2. Thank you!!

Marcia, 5 lessons with James

Great at explaining physics concepts at a university level

James was very helpful in explaining concepts and working through practice problems while I was studying for my college physics exams. I would recommend him to anyone with trouble following their professors during lectures.

A Great Physics Tutor

James has been a great Physics tutor who has offered enormous amount of help to my son. My son has developed a good relationship with him not only a tutor but also just a friend. His teaching approach matches my son's learning style and I can see my son's academic improvements with James. We greatly appreciate James' time and effort to make my son a better student.

Best Physics Tutor!

I have had no luck with physics tutors thus far but he definitely knocked it out of the park, I had a ton of questions to make up for the time lost with bad tutors and he was very patient and friendly throughout! I thought physics would never make sense, but I hadn’t yet had a session with James!

Physics

My son was so happy after the first lesson with James. He went over all of the fundamentals & told him what to focus on for his next semester. We will definitely use James again. Best money spent!
