Thomas: Vernon Hills tutor
Certified Tutor
I am a 5th year Physics Major with a minor in Mathematics, who loves to tutor! If you want a tutor for math or physics who puts a strong emphasis on conceptual understanding, and efficient problem solving methods, I'm the tutor for you.
My teaching expertise is in all levels of math up through and including Multivariable Calculus, although I have learned everything through and including Partial Differential Equations. My Physics expertise is up through and including freshman year university physics, and advanced undergraduate Thermodynamics, although I have finished the core curriculum for fulfillment of the major.
My research has been published at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, and my ongoing projects at Drexel University are in relation to the biophysics of Sickle Cell Anemeia. In addition, I have built a microfluidic spectrophotometer out of an inverted microscope and box of scrap laboratory metal to read in blood samples' oxygenation content.
I can explain the concepts, help you through problems, do examples for you, and help you through notational and mathematical misconceptions. Physics and Mathematics are the language of the universe, and I can't wait to help you unlock the keys to your potential!

Undergraduate Degree: Drexel University - Bachelor of Science, Physics
I am a trained classical pianist, an avid improvisational comedian (who also loves putting on improvised musical plays), and a Tough Mudder and general fitness enthusiast. I am also a contracted actor with a theater company in Philadelphia. When I'm not being, 'productive', you can find me either playing Chess, watching the Simpsons, theorizing about Marvel movies and Star Wars, visiting Art Museums, or playing videogames. Additionally I am a member of the Society of Physics Students, and in my spare time advocate for Pediatric Cancer Awareness.
