About
I am a high end, high excitement tutor with huge success.
I ignite the passion in people's hearts for learning and solving the fun challenges, understanding the problem and therefore, being successful!
I will ALWAYS start with what the PROBLEM to be solved is and WHY we are doing this. The understanding is key. Then everything else comes after that.
With a Master's degree in Nuclear Astrophysics (Worked and researched at Notre Dame Physics Lab) I have 10 years of experience of teaching people and businesses alike, of all abilities.
I use my excellence in communication to teach enthusiastic learners in Physics & Maths mainly (also Business Leadership and Entrepreneurship).
I can't wait to meet you!
I love seeing people love Maths and Physics as much as I do, and seeing how they can achieve anything they put their mind to with the right instruction!
