Worried about an upcoming physics course or exam?
I can help!
Feel like you’re in over your head?
I got you!
Have little to no experience with physics?
I got you too!
Doing alright in the course but looking to do better?
Got you covered!
Is cereal soup? Are hotdogs sandwiches?
We’ll never know.
I’ve been a professional physics educator for seven years, and I specialize in helping non-physics majors achieve their academic goals. Let me show you why more than 800 students have trusted me to guide them to success in PHYS*1300, PHYS*1080, and PHYS*1070 at the University of Guelph.
Educational Background
Honours B.Sc in Nanoscience & Physics from University of Guelph, 2016
M.Sc in Physics from University of Guelph, 2018 (here’s a link to my thesis)
Teaching Experience
University of Guelph Nanoscience Lecturer (NANO1000, NANO3300, and NANO3200) - Fall 2019 to Present
University of Guelph Teaching Assistance (PHYS1080, PHYS1070, PHYS1130, PHYS1300, NANO2100) - Fall 2016 to Fall 2018
Research Experience
Undergraduate Researcher - Solid-oxide fuel cell cathode materials.
Graduate Researcher - Theoretical modelling and simulation of nano-scale self-assembly in polymer systems.
Expertise
Thermal motion of molecules (Boltzmann distributions, diffusion, osmosis, osmotic pressure)
Sound & acoustics (travelling & standing waves, harmonics, the decibel scale)
Optics (refraction, diffraction, lenses, resolution)
Electricity and circuits (Coulomb’s law, Kirchoff’s laws, capacitors)
Introductory quantum mechanics
Spectroscopy (UV-vis, IR)
I have extensive experience teaching the following topics:
Newtonian mechanics (forces, torques, kinematics, work, energy, momentum)
Elasticity, stress, and strain
Scaling & power laws
Fluid statics (pressure, ideal gas, manometers, surface tension, buoyancy)
Fluid dynamics (Bernoulli’s equation, Poiseuille’s law, Reynold’s number, continuity)
I offer a variety of services and products including weekly tutorials, review sessions, private tutoring, prep materials and more. Don’t hesitate to book a free consultation and we can figure out what’s best for you!
