I am a physics PhD with experience tutoring and teaching lab courses at the college level. As a teaching assistant, I guided groups of students through physics labs, and eventually earned a national award given to outstanding teaching assistants from the American Association of Physics Teachers, as well as a teaching award given by the physics department at my university. In addition to my work as a teaching assistant, I have tutored students in smaller groups and individually, providing help with homework and exam preparation, as well as clarifying physics concepts, at both the high school and college level. My career as a physics researcher has provided me with a strong foundation in the principles of physics, as well as physics-based problem solving. I use my experience in academic physics research and tutoring to communicate abstract physical concepts in easily understandable terms.
My enthusiasm for physics has driven me to a career in physics, and I hope to impart some of that passion to students. I particularly enjoy the problem-solving aspects of physics, and I believe that one of the key ingredients for success in physics is to develop strong problem-solving skills. I therefore focus on helping students to build a broad problem-solving skill-set, which they can apply to a variety of physics problems.
