Experience

Hello! I have very recently successfully defended my dissertation for a Physics Ph.D. at ASU. Over the past three years my work has been centered on scientific research, but now that I am graduating I'd like to get back into tutoring while I search for a career position. I have had numerous tutoring and instructional positions throughout my training, both professional and private. I very much enjoy the process of learning and strive to pass on my enthusiasm for science and math onto my pupils as well. My goal is to spark your curiosity and to deepen your connection to the natural universe by helping you understand the scientific and mathematical structure of it all. A list of my professional experience is provided below: University of Washington Student Athlete Academic Success Center Physics Tutor (Sept. 2010-June 2012) Duties: Led individual and group tutoring sessions solving problems in physics Arizona State University Physics Teaching Assistant PHY 101 (Aug. 2012-Dec. 2012) Instructor: Gary Adams Duties: Led weekly recitation sections, graded homework sets and exams, proctored exams Arizona State University Physics Teaching Assistant PHY 121 (Jan. 2013-May 2013) Instructor: José Menéndez Duties: Led weekly online recitation sections, proctored exams
