About Charles


Bio

If you -want- to learn, I can teach you what you need. I know math inside & out, and I am good at what I do. I provide real-world examples & I personalize the subject matter. While I have stepped away from the front of the classroom, I can still be a force for change and development through these virtual channels. Given the opportunity, I will share my knowledge with you and your family as well. Thank you for viewing my profile.

— Background —
• Elementary: self-taught Algebra, Geometry, and Trigonometry before HS
• High School: 5s on AP Calculus BC and AP Chemistry in my junior year and on AP Physics my senior year; scored a 760 on SAT Math and a 34 on ACT Math
• College: engineering courseload with math beyond Differential Equations
• Post-Graduate: earned certification to teach IT courses to high school students
• Professional: electrical engineering to high school math teacher to photographer

— Highlights —
• Tutored one of my students privately who wanted to go beyond their school resources. I had taught them Geometry and Trigonometry through their academic transcript, but they wanted to learn PreCalculus before transferring to a US Top 100 high school. Taught the student from March to July. They were admitted to Walnut Hills High School [Cincinnati, OH] for their senior year and completed Calculus BC was a 3.4 GPA.
• Took a high school freshman class of 130 students, which was not taught Algebra [public school miseducation], and they performed 14% better than the district test average.

I teach the math behind the math. Students experiencing difficulty with math do not understand what to do next or why they need to do what they need to do next. I will teach the reasoning & all of the ways the problem can confuse you. Then, I will simplify the process & help develop student awareness so they can navigate math efficiently & on their own.

There are tutors and those who have the ability & love for teaching. Please schedule a lesson with me and experience the difference for yourself.

Approved Subjects

Electrical Engineering

Electrical Engineering

• Completed Electrical Engineering degree at the University of Michigan • Coursework included Circuits, Electromagnetism, Signals & Systems, Semiconductor Devices, Object-Oriented Programming, Optics, MEMS, and more • From the ages of 18-22, none of the coursework will make total sense unless you are remarkable. You won't know *why* you're doing what you're doing unless you're asking the right questions. I can help you find the questions to lead you through one of the most grueling majors in college.
Photography

Photography

I have been shooting professionally since 2014. My Credits include over 80 shows at New York Fashion Week, multiple publications of my photography, and a technical understanding of what affects a photo. I'm a Sony shooter [but a reformed Nikon owner as well]. My Workflow consists of Capture One for file handling and image processing while Photoshop handles major changes requiring layers and more extensive effects not readily available in Capture One. Photography is an extremely subjective, luxury artform. I can introduce you to your camera as well as fundamentals of photography, but after that, you must spread your wings and capture the world through your vantage point and the dizzying array of colors and perspectives associated with it...

Solid!

I went into this situation knowing what I expected but did not know how to bring the vision to existence. Charles was very thoughtful and detailed oriented in helping bring the vision to pass. He asked the right questions, listened to my input and actively continue to work as we revised together. I was very happy with our final outcome. Thank you Charles!
