"For the things of this world cannot be made known without a knowledge of mathematics.
- Roger Bacon"
I welcome students at all levels of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Math) topics. Whether it's basic math or advanced calculus, whether the feelings are confidence or disillusionment, whether past learning opportunities have been privileged or not. Learning is a right and blessing for all. I invite you to invite me into your learning world, challenges, styles, likes and dislikes. Come sit down with me and let's see how we together can bring new light into your understanding of the physical world. My greatest joys in life derive from imparting my knowledge and fascination to others.
I have the cognitive knowledge in STEM areas to tutor them expertly and the emotional intelligence to hold students in the process of absorbing it (see "credentials" below). The focus can be on class learning, exam (SAT, ACT, etc) preparation, career learning needs or personal interest.
Credentials:
- Degrees: BS Electrical Engineering from UCSD; MS Applied Physics from CALTECH; MA Counseling Psychology from CIIS.
- 10+ years of private tutoring experience in STEM and ESL areas
- Primary expertise areas: Math (all levels), Physics (all levels), Electrical Engineering, Semiconductor Technology
Contracting details:
- Base hourly rates: $30-$50 depending on topic level and commute distance. Payment by cash or check.
