I am a graduate of Kent State University (B.S, Geology), the Colorado School of Mines (M.S., Geophysics), and Boston University (Ph.D, Geology). I spent the major part of my professional life working in the fields of geology and geophysics, but ended my career teaching, including three years teaching math and science at the 5th-8th grade levels, and eight years teaching Algebra I, Algebra II, Pre-calculus and AP Calculus at a College Preparatory High School. I also taught (and continue to teach)...More

I am a junior at Colorado School of Mines, studying Engineering Physics. As a physics major, I know the importance of understanding the fundamentals of a subject before trying to focus on specifics, especially in math and science. I try to have a very flexible teaching style, as I know not everybody learns in the same way, and I will always come prepared to teach a subject in multiple ways depending on the student's way of learning. I am outgoing, encouraging and patient, and I will always push ...More

I am passionate about applied science and believe that it is extremely beneficial for young students to learn this material with context, because without any context these subjects can seem like a waste of time and not worth the effort to learn. I enjoy physical activity, mostly through hiking, running, or playing soccer. I have gone on several long backpacking treks along the Pacific Crest Trail in the Sierras and around South Lake Tahoe. My biggest hiking trip was 180 miles along the John Muir...More

I'm a former geophysicist, money manager, and entrepreneur who found his true calling in teaching mathematics. Math is one of mankind's greatest accomplishments.

I am a current student at the Colorado School of Mines, studying to double major in Applied Mathematics and Engineering Physics. I have been tutoring students professionally for one year, but also through my schools for 5 years now. I tutor most kinds of Math and Science, and love doing so; being able to help spread understanding of a difficult concept never fails to bring me joy. As a current student, I understand how lecturing is often not the most effective (or interesting) way to learn, so I...More

I am a graduate of The University of North Texas where I received a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical and Energy Engineering. Recently, I graduated from Colorado School of Mines where I received a Master of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering. Throughout my undergraduate career I have tutored underclassmen in engineering, math, and science courses. I find learning to be very fulfilling and essential to a successful life. My tutoring focus is in mathematics, science, and mechanical engineeri...More

I am also passionate about teaching - sharing that knowledge in an accessible way that will help you find confidence and understanding, not just pass the next test.

I am currently a Masters student in Indo-Tibetan Buddhism at Naropa University in Boulder, CO. Previously, I had attended the Colorado School of Mines earning a bachelor's degree in Engineering Physics. I aspire to become a professor of Buddhist philosophy integrating contemplative studies with rigorous scientific and formal logics. Apart from scholastic endeavors, I spend much of my time wandering the Colorado mountains, practicing the piano, and studying the world around me.
