Experience
Enthusiastic tutor with experience teaching mathematics and physics to high school and college students. I have been using sites like this to tutor mathematics and physics for two years and I have been an instructor for the Red Cross teaching Lifeguard training and CPR/First Aid training for 3 years. I have completed all of my required college math courses through linear algebra and applied differential equations. I have been tutoring friends and family in mathematics and physics on and off for years and I have skills working with high school and college-aged young adults. I love to pass on my skills and understanding to others through continued practice and a deep conceptual understanding. I am very enthusiastic about looking at mathematics and physics from different perspectives to fully understand the concepts. A common theme that my professors have been emphasizing in my physics studies is "you don't truly understand physics until you can accurately explain it to a stranger" and that is my intention in my own development and in helping to have others gain mastery over whatever subjects they need. Relevant Scores: SAT: 790 Math SAT on singular attempt Received A’s in Undergraduate courses: Electrodynamics Quantum Physics (B+) Classical Mechanics Astrophysics Calculus 2 and 3 Space-Time Physics Physics Programming (Python) etc *** University Honors Program for Freshman and Sophomore year. Completed college mathematics through applied differential equations and linear algebra. Completed college physics through quantum mechanics and electrodynamics (and more).

Hobbies
Hobbies: Web development/Programming, Music, Dancing, Swimming/Diving, Sailing, Traveling. Lastly: I am very down to earth and I realize that not every student will be feeling excited all the time about material that they struggle with. But generally I work best with those who have at least a base level desire to learn the material well enough to do well.
