Math and physics have a reputation for being intimidating, but I do not think they have to be. I am a Ph.D. candidate in Physics at New York University, where I teach undergraduate physics while conducting research in wave physics and soft matter. Before NYU, I worked as a mathematics and physics tutor at Drew University's Center for Academic Excellence, helping students in algebra, calculus, linear algebra, mechanics, electricity and magnetism, and modern physics. I was honored to receive NYU's 2025 Outstanding Student Instructor Award, but the best part of teaching is seeing a difficult idea finally make sense.
My tutoring style is relaxed, patient, and focused on understanding. I explain ideas from different angles, build intuition before memorization, and adapt to the way each student learns. After years of teaching and tutoring, I have a good sense for where students tend to get stuck and why. I have worked with students from many different backgrounds and experience levels, and I enjoy helping them make sense of the parts of math and physics that once seemed out of reach.
