My approach to teaching and tutoring is entirely unique. I aim to achieve deep and long-lasting understandings in my students by emphasizing the fundamental concepts in each example instead of just having students mindlessly plug things into formulas, as is all too often common in math and physics teachers.

My favorite moments of teaching are when students have that "OH!" lightbulb moment and for me ideally every lesson should have such a moment!

I've had former students go on to UCLA, Berkeley, Princeton, Purdue, UCI, and Penn State. (Most credit to them of course!)
