I love sharing electrical technology using terminology and concepts already familiar to the student. Complex subjects may often be broken down into simpler, easier to understand parts or analogies. I encourage students to ask questions, because in real life, the question is the most important problem solving tool we have. No question is too simple. The simplest questions may lead to the deepest insights! I have worked with middle school, high school, and college students as well as profes... Read more

Working with children of all ages has always been one of my top strengths and it keeps my mind active, searching for new connections. I usually learn something new or create an enhanced thought pattern when teaching someone else and this is important to me since I strive for constant expansion. I grew up as the oldest child and have been essentially the male guardian to my 14 year old sister. Before the age of 2, she was able (among other skills) to say the alphabet backward in less th...
