I am very happy with our experience so far with Varsity Tutors. They matched my daughter with reading specialist Mary and she is wonderful! My 10 year old daughter feels happy after her sessions and believes her tutor has already helped her.

Certified Tutor

I have been teaching physics in some capacity for over 15 years and have a degree and a Ph.D. in physics. I do research in the area of Physics called Physics Education and so I investigate the difficulties and challenges that students have with learning physics both from a conceptual point of view and from a motivational perspective. I have designed multiple college-level classes in both mechanics and electricity and magnetism and specialize in designing physics problems that relate to the real world.

Education & Certification

Undergraduate Degree: Dublin Institute of Technology - Bachelor of Science, Physics

Graduate Degree: Dublin Institute of Technology - Doctor of Science, Physics

Hobbies

I am an avid movie consumer and often use movie scenarios to teach physics like calculating whether the bus would have made the jump in the movie Speed. I also am an amateur woodworker mainly because as fund and rewarding as physics you never really have a physical product in your hand at the end of the experience and woodworking allows me to do that.
