About this tutor
I am a Physics PhD student at Wayne State University, where I research the accretion of gas around neutron stars and black holes. I completed my undergraduate degree in Physics at Georgia Tech in 2019, with a concentration in Astrophysics. While at Georgia Tech I also worked at the East Cobb Tutoring Center, a local tutoring business which served families in metro Atlanta. I taught on-level and AP Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and Math to high school students from a wide range of academic backgrounds. My favorite thing about working as a tutor is connecting with students and helping them discover the fun and exciting parts of math and science, as well as fostering their academic growth.

FAQs
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I meet with the student and his or her family in order to discuss academic goals for the courses we are working on, as well as any unsatisfactory grades or academic progress that has occured prior to tutoring.
During sessions I work with the student on upcoming assignments, review notes taken in class and answer any questions the student has about the material, and review missed questions on previous tests and quizzes. I can provide relevant practice problems in preparation for tests or use ones provided by the teacher.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a Bachelors of Science in Physics from Georgia Tech, and extensive research training in Physics and Astrophysics. I have worked as a tutor for six years with middle and high school students from a variety of academic backgrounds in math, physics, and chemistry.
I currently work as a Graduate Teaching Assistant at Wayne State University. I am trained to teach undergraduate level physics courses.
