I've recently graduated from Queen's University having attained a Master of Science degree with a specialization in Astronomy. Previously, I attended Mount Allison University where I obtained a Bachelor of Science with Honours in Physics. Over the last 5 years, I have worked as a Teaching Assistant, engaging directly with University students on Introductory Physics topics. I have been a peer tutor where I helped students 1-on-1 in Physics and Calculus. I believe in teaching my students how to use the tools they need to understand their subject and solve the various complex problems they will face. I want to leave my students confident in their abilities to understand the course material independently to set them up for success in the future.
