Electrical Engineering is one of my top subjects! I hold a BS degree in Electrical Engineering. For twenty years, at DeVry University, I have taught DC Circuit Fundamentals, AC Circuit Fundamentals, Semiconductor Circuits, Transistor Amplifiers, Op Amp.

Then I will guide them through reasoning out what the remaining steps for solving the problem should be.
When I was teaching high school freshman Algebra I, I develop a strategy for mastering word problems that was successful to the point that students actually enjoyed doing word problems.
I have taught both high school and college level c ... read more
