Computer Science Tutor with Industry and Teaching Experience

I grew to enjoy "TA-ing" so much that I moved on to become Head TA of the course, where I helped to design the lecture material, and occasionally gave lectures when the Professor was absent.

I am a retired physical chemist, interested in working with chemistry or physics students. I have taught college freshman chemistry. I especially enjoy working with high school students who intend to major in the physical sciences. Mathematical background improvement is a familiar area of my attention.
