Jerry

Certified Tutor

Graduated (James Scholar Honors) from the University of Illinois in Engineering Physics and have a Masters in Physics from the same institution. Retiring from industry 2008 I began teaching part-time at the local community college and have been doing so ever since, teaching passionately physics and math. My aim is to give students a good understanding and appreciation of a subject whether a course is in their career field or an elective. During my career in industry, I had become interested in display monitor technology for education and worked leading to development of high-definition display screens. I hold 22 issued patents and many peer reviewed publications. We formed a small company which has produced display products for over 30 years and did joint Research and Development internationally.
