My name is Rainier Berkley and I am a recent physics graduate of Norfolk State University who has a strong passion for learning, helping others and solving complex mathematical and physical problems. I seek to put my love for learning all things mathematical and physical to use in finding solutions on a global scale for the good of mankind. I firmly believe in the "reach one teach one" philosophy because for every person I reach out and help hopefully they too can reach out and teach somebody else what I taught them and we all can grow as a unified whole one person at a time. This has ultimately led me to get involved in numerous tutoring and mentoring opportunities to give back and help out on a local level, because I can not only kill two birds with one stone but I can also build connections with people and improve upon my own problem-solving abilities simultaneously. I have been tutoring for a grand total of six plus years now in various mathematics courses ranging from algebra to differential equations and in physics courses ranging from algebra-based to calculus-based physics. I have tutored people through various different platforms inclusive of phone calls, video calls, video recordings, text messaging and last but not least in person. I have experience in standardized testing preparation since I have aided my peers, students and even a teacher in SOL testing, AP physics, the math section of the GRE and MCAT physics problems. This constant exposure has permitted me to experience new and different modes of thinking, perspectives, backgrounds and problem-solving techniques. My ultimate goal as a tutor is to help instill the necessary mindset for students to be able to adequately approach, understand, break down and solve problems by their lonesome and for any other up and coming students.
