Keith D.
Private tutor in Boulder, CO
Education
Master's and Bachelor's degree in Physics from the University of Colorado, Boulder (GPA 3.5 and 3.2 respectively) also minored in Philosophy with an emphasis on philosophy of science.
Experience
I have tutored elementary to college math and science students, all of which have improved their grades by at least a full letter and finish better equipped for future math subjects with or without my help. I enjoy teaching new and intuitive ways of looking at a problem, encouraging students to not just memorize the methods to but have a better understanding that can be applied to any problem. Often the mental block is not just that a problem is hard but that it needs to be looked at in a way that makes sense to you. I also teach simple mental math methods that are helpful at any level. I also have six nieces and nephews from 7 to 20 years old who I've tutored throughout their entire academic careers.
