I hold a MS in Applied Physics and have taught two Calculus classes at a local community college. I also tutored while I was in college, and now I enjoy tutoring on the side. I'm extremely well-versed in the subjects I indeed tutor on Wyzant.
I've always enjoyed and been fascinated by mathematics. I recall clearly first learning to subtract and then multiply. As a child, I would multiply 15 digit number together just because I could.
Math has always come second nature to me, and I have never really taken notes. Only the highest levels of collegiate mathematics stretched me enough that I needed to write anything down.
When I read a book, it's generally mathematics related. I create math quizzes at work for others to try, but sadly few people enjoy mathematics the way I do. If you're looking for someone passionate and able to grasp mathematics, look no further.
Physics was my declared major from freshman day 1 in college and I never changed it. I had a great experience in high school with physics and never looked back. Perhaps I enjoy the mathematics aspect of physics as it is just applied mathematics, but the tie to the real world is amazing. Physics can describe everything that occurs in our reality.
I have programmed in one way or another since around 1997. Beginning with the TI-82 calculator's minimalistic programming interface and instructions, I quickly found that I had a knack and love for programming. After C, C++, and a few other languages, I ended up using VB6 in many physics courses. After the courses were complete, I was unsatisfied with what I had learned so I dug deeper. I t" less...
