Math & Physics! by Brandon Schiller, PhD

Hello! My name is Dr. Brandon Schiller! I am a former associate-in professor at UC San Diego in the structural engineering department. I have been tutoring students from kindergarten to post-college for over 15 years because I have a passion for learning and teaching.

Yes, some people are more gifted in these subjects than others, but I think we can all do well in these fields with proper teaching. In my experience, many students struggle because they are not being taught in a way that is most conducive to their learning. I work to cater my teaching to the individual so that concepts are fundamentally understood, not just memorized for the next test. We are all different, and we all learn differently. My philosophy in this regard respects just that. I utilize my extensive tutoring and teaching experience to develop the best approach for each student to excel. At 28 years old, I am very fortunate to have had the opportunities I have been able to capitalize on. The benefit of my age comes from how easy it is to connect with students.
