Physics is one of my top subjects! I have an earned B.S. & Ph.D. in Engineering Mathematics from NC State University and Columbia Pacific University respectively. Physics is deeply embedded in engineering and is consistently used throughout applications in this field. This one of my "Top Subjects", as I have been using its contents in my work over a period of half a century.

I have been teaching throughout my career, and students learn quickly because of my easy-going style. I have been vetted by WysAnt Tutoring Service. I am an experienced Public Speaker and Toastmaster.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and working with people. I believe that there is no set teaching style, due to people's indifferance. I believe that because people learn in differant ways, then a teacher/tutor should approach students in many angles.
I believe with my background I should be a good candidate for the tutoring position. I have a B.S. Chemistry from Elizabeth City State University, where I did R&D work with Atrazine. Atrazine is a pesticide that was tested qualitatively and quantitatively using HPLC. I've completed coursework for a M.S. Chemical Physics from Norfolk State University. After being offered a Teaching Assistantship, I taught multiple chemistry laboratory classes. My graduate research focuses on synthesizing organic monomers for Photovoltaic applications; however, I have assisted with research devoted to immobilizing enzymes onto solid supports at the Center for Mate ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have informally tutored people of various age ranges in the subjects, physics and math , for a period that ranges over about three years . I have taught younger relatives as well as helped people informally on online tutoring message boards with math and physics problems. I have also been paid to assist students in how to operate the basic commands of computational mathematical software for three years as well.
I would be glad to work with students of all ages, but I prefer to work with a student individually rather than work with students in a group. From both my experience of being an informal tutor and being tutored, I find that students general prefer this style of tutoring because the tutor can both focus and better access their student's strengths and weaknesses in the particular academic subject they are having difficulty with.

My teaching style adapts to each individual I work with. I believe that one of the most important things to helping anyone learn is to instill in them the confidence that they can be successful. I believe that there are lots of different ways to learn, and I like helping people figure out what works for them. If someone wants to be successful and is willing to put in the work, I will find a way to help them achieve their goals.
As a graduate of the Air Force Academy and Harvard Business School, I know what it takes to achieve excellence in education. I have earned advanced degrees in Engineering and Business. My love of teaching and coaching brought me back to the Air Force Academy to coach and tutor college athletes in math, science, English, and French. I also have extensive writing and speaking experience and have helped many students with college essays and applications.

I feel as though every child can achieve the impossible, and with the help of someone giving them the attention that they deserve and need, they will feel better about themselves as well. I want to get a child in a learning mood where they'll want to go to school everyday and learn something. I want to be an inspiration to them or a role model or someone they can look up to for advice so that they can follow in my footsteps as far as finishing high school and continuing education to strive and be the best that they can be.
As an graduate of Elizabeth City State University, I have done exceptionally well. I learned so much through tutoring other students. When I tutored in the Business Department for Accounting and Finance classes, I gave some students hope, and some students even looked up to me. That they made me feel great and it really made me enjoy what I did because I helped a ... read more

My experience is primarily in the field of Structural engineering and mechanics, which involve physics and mathematics heavily. I have spent six years at North Carolina State University studying engineering which involved advanced mathematic concepts while earning a bachelors and masters degree. I have a year and a half of experience in the field of structural engineering in consulting which has allowed me to increase my skills in engineering as well as general mathematics. Earlier in this year I began official tutoring and teaching of 7th grade students in math at my church’s school as a volunteer. I have found it very rewarding and it is a path I would like to continue on. And while I do not have a lot of official teaching and tutoring experience, I have done it informally for many years and find much enjoyment in it. It is very rewarding to pass on the knowledge you have to othe ... read more

I have been able to earn degrees that ranges from an Associate of Science in Electrical Power Engineering to a Masters of Science degree in Physics. This has equipped me with the necessary skills needed to show students how to navigate their learning experience especially in physics. In addition, because of this background I have found it very helpful and effective in tutoring students whose career interest may lie in either engineering or the sciences.Currently I am a physics instructor with ITT-technical institute, a physics tutor with tutor.com, and a physics test question writer for Measurements Incorporated.
Whenever I have the opportunity to teach students the first thing that I am reminded of is the fact that I was once a student. I become very much aware of the difficulty students can face in trying to understand some physics concepts. It therefore becomes a very important ... read more

More About This Tutor...

During college I studied Electrical Engineering for 7 years where I gained an extensive background in mathematics and science while obtaining my Masters Degree. During my Masters program, I composed a 150+ page thesis, which refined my writing, organization, and research skills. During my senior year in undergrad, and throughout my advanced studies, I worked as a math and science tutor, where I taught all maths from algebra to Calculus 3 for the college. In addition, I also worked externally as a middle and high school math tutor. After graduating, I became a Mental Health Therapist for 3 years, where I assisted kids with behavioral disorder such as depression, attention deficit disorder, and adjustment disorder.
