About Michael
I earned my M.S. in Computer Science from CMU but spent years as a TA for our physics department as well. My teaching philosophy is to build conceptual checkpoints at each step—so before you calculate, you truly understand why the equations hold. I often use digital simulations to “see” phenomena like wave interference, helping you connect math to physical intuition. Over nine years, I’ve guided hundreds of students through AP Physics and introductory college courses, ensuring they gain both confidence and clarity.

My physics lessons start with diagnosing the student’s current understanding—such as misconceptions about conservation laws—then proceed to a concise theory review reinforced with annotated diagrams. We’ll solve exemplar problems (e.g., circular motion or wave interference) step by step, highlighting common errors and strategies to avoid them. I employ digital simulations (rigid-body dynamics, harmonic oscillators) to visualize phenomena. Homework integrates calculation questions with short conceptual essays. Ideal for AP Physics or first-year college students needing deeper insight.
