Also, I like to make the subjects I teach easily accessible to beginners by using colloquial terms rather than technical ones, simple pictures and convincing arguments rather than complex formulas. Having said that, as the student develops, I place an increased emphasis on...

I enjoy learning and helping others learn. My background is in mechanical design and environmental science.... Life is interesting. So, we have to do interesting experiments.
