My Students

Physics attracts a diverse population of learners from various backgrounds. These students seek to expand their knowledge of science and push their learning to the limit. They have a wonder of the physical world and believe in hard work and progress of the scientific community.

My students explore the complex physical world through the complex, rigorous, and mind bending concepts behind physics.

They ask questions, develop necessary skills, build and develop applications, and analyze complex concepts and problems. They are dedicated to their learning and are amazing kids to work with. I want to provide them with the best possible education so that they have a basis for success in their academic careers.

My Project

Currently my students do not have enough physics books for each of them to have a copy. The students lose out on content and practice problems that could help them develop the necessary skills and knowledge to excel in the course. I want to provide each of my students with the materials to help them to succeed and make physics interesting to each and every student.

The goal of my physics course is to push my students to a high standard, while teaching them physics based contents and learning styles.

The goal is to provide a window into the real world applications that physics can bring in an effort to inspire the next generation of engineers scientists, or whatever field of interest my students choose. I hold my students to strict standards because I believe in excellence and hard work. In order to accomplish my goal, I need to be able to provide them with the materials to do so and any contribution towards these materials is greatly appreciated.
