About Me

I have a bachelor degree in Physics Engineering, and a Master's degree in Physics, both from University Laval Quebec, Canada. A Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Montreal, Canada, and postdoctoral training at the Upstate Medical University of the State University of New York. I taught at the college level for 18 years, and I enjoyed it immensely. I love teaching, I love the student interaction, I particularly enjoy seeing students maturing in their learning and practice of science. The fact that I still interact with my graduate students many years after graduation attests of my relation with them. My tutoring approach consists at listening to students, find the gray areas, and implement original ways to address points that may have been missed in their learning. I like scaffolding when teaching concepts, e.g, solve problems steps by steps for students, but as we progress in the sessions I bring the students to intervene more more in the solutions, i.e., progressively removing the scaffold. This way the students better develop their abilities to solve problems. They learn how to retrieve from their own knowledge base. Learning is fun. I will not spare any efforts to make my teaching effective still enjoyable.
