...With my students, I try to develop an adherence to processes using graphical arrangements wherever possible, in order to help them develop confidence in the solutions that they derive. Precalculus seems like the link to truly higher order math. It combines algebra and geometry. (read more)
...The power of mathematics is endless. I spent 17 years as a practicing engineer, with a focus on mechanism dynamics, test evaluation and test design. I look forward to helping you learn the beauty of mathematics and the fun of engineering. (read more)
...I generally use the students' current knowledge and ask probing questions to get them to teach themselves the material and bring in experiences to facilitate learning (I find this Socratic method works best for retention), but, when needed, will lecture. I have been playing violin for over 25 ye... (read more)

My specific areas of expertise include, but are not limited to, biochemistry, cardiology, psychiatry, nephrology, endocrinology, hematology & oncology, and biostatistics. (read more)
...The majority of my electrical physics deals with the life of sensor systems (duration) and dealing with electromagnetic sensing, signals and noise. I often have to resolve forces in order to determine stress directions and locations in various structures. In addition to strength of materials, t... (read more)
