About

I'm pretty good at teaching--I'm good at reading what people need. Learning is complex and the more examples one can use to demonstrate a principle the easier it is to convey that principle. I have a long history and broad background in technology and I leverage that well.

I've always loved technology. I like learning, I like broadening horizons, and I like how different technologies parallel each other.

    Frequently asked questions

    1) Introduce ourselves.

    2) Learn about some personal background and motivation.

    3) Learn about specific goals.

    4) Have the student explain specifically where they are in their learning process and what steps they would like to take.

    I have an A.S. degree in Electronics Engineering Technology and am an accomplished Electronics Engineering Technician to the point of being qualified as an Electrical Engineer. I have four decades of experience in Electronics Engineering, Design, and Troubleshooting in Aerospace, Medical, RF, High power electronics, and Telecommunications. I also have taught a number of classes related to that experience and have found that I'm good at that and my students appreciate being in my classes. I have largely taught myself math and electronics design.

    I have patents for impedance analysis and an ADC (Analog to Digital Conversion) optimization algorithm.

    $25/hour for high school and below, $40/hour for college and engineering.

    Originally I connected with a community teaching business venture in Longmont, CO. I built my classes for Basic Electricity and Electrical Troubleshooting. Years later I worked at Nicolet Area Technical College in Wisconsin teaching Basic Electricity, Basic Math for Electronics, and Computer Applications for Electronics.

    Since my classes were local, on-site classes, they were local community people seeking to forward themselves. I have no qualms working with anyone from around the world though.

    I fixed an electrical machine in a way they didn't believe was possible. I came in early the next day after discussing it with them and implemented my fix which only cost a few dollars compared to the thousands they thought it would cost. When I showed them that it worked my boss said to me "Explain to me again how that works?" In our weekly meeting I got a round of applause. That was a good feeling.

    Remember that you are hiring someone. You have specific goals to reach. Have a list of questions that will clarify how you and your teacher will reach those goals. Be clear in your mind about what you want. I like to build spreadsheets with a column of "Questions," and numeric columns of "Importance," and "Results." That's a simple strategy to evaluage a complex subject.

    1) How can I know if this person is qualified?

    2) Is my list of questions good/complete?

    3) Should I have someone I know observing the interview whom I can discuss things later with?
