I studied physics and mathematics in university and obtained a bachelors and masters degree in physics. I then completed a doctorate in theoretical particle physics and then continued to study mathematical finance and obtain a masters in this area. In addition to teaching physics at university level, I have several years of work experience in the financial sector, working for banks and insurance companies as well as the regulator.
I have taught physics and mathematics from elementary school to university level for several years. I have conducted tutorials in Canada, the UK, for high school as well university level students. I have also taught physics as a university professor in the US where in addition to formal lectures and laboratory sessions, I helped some students with learning difficulties achieve their goals.
I specialise in General Physics and Mathematics, as well as more advanced subjects such as Calculus, Linear Algebra, Classical and Quantum Mechanics, Electricity and Magnetism, Optics, Probability Theory and Statistics.
I am patient, calm and approachable and have a great love and enthusiasm for teaching.
In a first session, I try to understand the areas where improvement is needed. A solid foundation is important in any mathematical subject. An understanding of the theoretical concepts is a necessity as is the proper application of the theoretical ideas and techniques and development of problem solving skills. Practice problems are the best way to achieve this and I place great emphasis on solving problems.
