About

Hello! I'm Paul, and I am passionate about your success in school, and learning as a way of life.

I have tutored university, college, and high school students for 20 years with great success.

I served 10 years as a Community College Professor in Mathematics, Physics, and Meteorology. At The University of Colorado, I fulfilled the role of Teaching Assistant for physics, Energy & the Environment, Atmospheric Science, and Atmospheric Science Laboratory. I have also tutored collegiate student athletes.

I can help you any math from basic math, algebra, trigonometry, calculus, linear algebra, differential equations, or even business math or applied math. I have taught and tutored students in numerous courses from multiple textbooks, instructors, and software platforms. I can help students know how to approach a math problem.

I can assist you with any high school or college level physics course! AP Physics, conceptual, algebra-based, and calculus-based all apply. I have assisted many students to understand science concepts, calculations, display of data, computer programming, scientific writing, and scientific reports.

I can help you in Statistics, no matter what level you are taking.

I am highly experienced and skilled at anything Meteorology, Atmospheric Science, Weather, Climate Change, etc.

I am proficient at MATLAB and can help you with this computing language. I have experience with Python. I understand how to show students how they can find answers to their programming needs.

Please contact me to schedule an appointment, online or in-person.

I am so excited to see the transformation of a student from lacking understanding to having confidence in a subject. I want my life to impact others through learning and mastery.

I want to take a moment to express my heartfelt appreciation for my tutor, Paul. His unwavering positivity and encouragement have made a significant impact on my journey to raise my ASVAB score. Pauls ability to explain complex concepts in a clear and relatable way helped me grasp the material with confidence. Thanks to his dedicated support, I am thrilled to share that I scored 20 points higher than my original score!

If youre looking for someone who truly cares about your success and can energize your learning experience, I wholeheartedly recommend Paul. His commitment to helping others achieve their goals is truly inspiring!

I enjoyed working with Mr. Quelet as he helped me understand the complex problems I had. His wide knowledge of physics and math allowed me to work with him on multiple subjects. I like how thorough his explanations are as it allowed me to really understand how a certain concept is being used.

Setting up sessions with him was always easy and I will definitely ask him for help when I come across another hard STEM class!
