I got interested in physics because of my high school physics teacher, and I'm excited to spread his teaching methods to you. My educational philosophy involves two parts. First, I believe that if you have the intuition, everything becomes a lot easier. Some people pick up intuition quickly, others weren't taught well. By explaining why equations make sense, I can show you what they actually mean and how to figure out which one to use. The second part is to make you do the work- I'll show you... Read more

My main teaching strategy is to achieve full understanding of a subject starting with the initial preparation level and taking into account the individual features of a student. I always try to delineate the problem as specifically as possible and to target it progressively in the course of studies. I work with students interactively, emphasizing the problem solving skills and creative thinking. My approach is to set the goals for a particular student and then focus on accomplishing these goa...

As a Masters and now a PhD student, I have loved the opportunities I've gotten to work as a teacher or teaching assistant with college students.

I've found one-on-one sessions as the most effective way to learn math. I can diagnose and address deficiencies that would otherwise go undetected in a standard classroom environment. I explain the material so the student can learn through understanding. No short cuts required - if it makes sense, the student will learn it. I have a math degree from MIT and taught math at Rutgers University for 10 years. I don't just know the material; I know the student as well.... Read more

Very often it is a benefit to include parents in a teache Read more
