Senior Applied Physics student offering maths and physics lessons with 5 years experience, Experienced guitarist of 15 years
Methodology
My teaching method is to help guide the student toward an answer by teaching them how to approach a problem and techniques for getting started, which is often the most challenging part. I would work alongside the student to give them an example of how to read and manipulate notes and dense textbooks, extracting valuable information and extrapolating from what's given.
Background
I have a passion for physics and mathematics. I'm currently entering my senior year of Applied physics, and I have officially completed my mathematics minor, finishing the highest math courses offered to physics students at Texas Tech. I'm well versed in calculus, kinematics, EM and optics.
