Being an electronic circuit design engineer for over 30 years has made me aware that there is a need to bring to the student a love of physics and the math. This understanding of these subjects is essential to understand the rapid changes in technology and for everyday life.

The reason that I am pursuing tutoring is to encourage students out who want to understand the physical sciences and math. Math is the language of physics and engineering The understanding of the math is essential to get an understanding of the system and to determine the outcome.

I graduated from Monmouth College in 1976 with a BSEE
I also have taken graduate level courses in (Communication Theory, Advanced Math and Statistics).
I served in Vietnam 1970 -1971 and hold one US Patent.

I have also taught at Devry Technical School and ITT technical Schools in NJ. The subjects taught were Passive Circuit Analysis, Basic Math, Algebra, Complex Numbers, Analog Electronics, Digital Electronics, Binary number theory and base n, Basic electrical theory (Ohms law, Kirchhoff's Laws, circuit theorem's), Electronic device theory (bipolar transistors, field effect transistor and diodes).

The Industries I have worked in are, Navel Nuclear Instrumentation Design, Aero Space, Power Conversion, Analog Electronics, Digital Electronics and Instrumentation.

As a senior member of the technical staff part of my job was mentoring new engineers with different backgrounds. This training required me to teach the analysis and design practices. I accomplished this by breaking things down to the lowest level and work up from there.

I am flexible in my hours since I am retired and look forward to meeting with the student.

Trigonometry

Trigonometry

I taught several different subjects for Electronics technicians DeVry and Rets technical schools at night. Besides circuit theory and electronics most of the subjects also needed different subjects in Math. Trigonometry is used in AC circuit analysis so it is not a subject which I had to pass the test for but I had to use it.

A Great tutor

Rob was extremely helpful with me the entire time. He had no problem showing me how do stuff multiple times if I didn't understand it. I feel like he really wanted to help and he wasn't there just for the money. I would highly recommend having him as a tutor.

Tutor responded:

thank you Jon

Patient and positive

Robert came on short notice to help my daughter prepare for an AP HS physics test. He cares about his students and wants to help. It was a positive experience working with Robert

Very knowledgable Tutor!

Bob did a great job working with my 16-year old, Junior in High School with Algebra 2. My son could not finish and was stressing over his math homework. However, Bob "broke through," and my son had an "ah-ha" moment. Now, my son also has much greater confidence with the material. Kudos to Bob!
