Michael
Interdisciplinary Educator: Physical Science and its requisite Math.

I worked in youth mental health (BA in Psychology) before returning to college to study physics after taking no math courses for about 9 years. I had to re-teach myself high school math before starting on my journey, after which I was thrown into high level math courses in rapid succession. I know what it's like to be intimidated by the material and unsure of my abilities. Online self-help resources were v... Read more

Whether the problems are grammar, writing, reading, or listening abilities, I can help. I'll keep things challenging but not so challenging that you will feel overwhelmed. I'm only just starting with WyzAnt but have been teach... Read more
