About Me

I have an intimate relationship with tutoring, in part because it's sort of the only way I really learn: I don't really understand a topic until I can teach it to someone else. Because of that, when I was in school I would regularly be tutoring other students. I also spent hours and hours tutoring others over the Internet. For me teaching is an adventure. Everyone has different perspectives, and when you are teaching you have to be able to both provide a new perspective and to understand (so as to enlarge) someone else's perspective. In my non-teaching time, I am interested in Physics and Mathematics and working out practical problems from plumbing to electronics. I will someday go back for my Ph.D. in Physics but until then I am looking to grow as an engineer or computer programmer.

Q&A with Christopher

Socratic. I know too much, so if I start in a random location there's a 90% chance that it will not apply to any given student -- instead I need to ask them "hey, where are you?" and "why do you think that ?" until we drill down to something concrete where I can help them understand what's going on.
