"I am a retired professional engineer who continues to keep busy with amateur carpentry, gardening, bike riding, and skiing. My full-time job was teaching in a dedicated educational facility within a large engineering firm. The main purpose of the school was to give new employees, mostly recent college graduates, a solid foundation in nuclear and mechanical engineering, despite their varied technical backgrounds. In addition to teaching classes of typically 15 students, I provided one-on-one help to struggling students. Courses taught include: advanced engineering mathematics, applied structural mechanics, heat transfer and fluid flow, applied nuclear physics, reactor theory, reactor kinetics, and reactor power plant and core design.

Since retiring, I have also kept busy teaching as an adjunct professor in the mathematics departments of the University of Pittsburgh and the Community College of Allegheny County (CCAC).

I have tutored online using various platforms, including WyzAnt, since 2016. Subjects that I have helped students with are Advanced Engineering Mathematics, Linear Algebra, Complex Variables, Differential Equations, Physics, Solid Mechanics, Fluid Mechanics, Heat Transfer, Thermodynamics, Electrical Engineering, and Nuclear Engineering. My ratings and feedback indicate that my students are very happy with the results. Regardless of your background, I will tailor my delivery to fit your need. My goal is to make it so that you no longer need a tutor!

Beginning in 2025, if one student refers another student to me, the first student is eligible for a free half hour of tutoring, once both students have met with me for at least two hours each. So, if you improve as a result of meeting with me, please let others in your class know about it!" less...
