"I love helping students understand math and physics concepts through good illustrations, animations, and simulations! Before Wyzant, I tutored local high school and college students at $50/hour. Also taught a physics class for home schoolers.

I earned BS and MS degrees in engineering from MIT including an internship and master's thesis all in just 5 years. I have decades of experience doing R&D in the aerospace and medical fields. I have over 30 US patents. In my current role I develop embedded medical software using matlab, simulink, and stateflow.

The most enjoyable and rewarding job assignment I ever had was when I worked at Shodor (shodor.org). I was asked to teach a javascript class for a week long coding camp. Designing the content and the coding challenges was as fun as the actual teaching! Having an engineering mindset is very helpful for teaching and tutoring." less...
