About George
I am an Ex NASA JPL Electrical Engineer in Deep Space Communications Architecture where I worked for 4 years in the US working on satellites and amplifiers. Now a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Sydney, working on nanophotonics and free-space optical communications. I also teach engineering courses at the University of Sydney, and previously University of Michigan Ann Arbor, in Signals and Systems as well as Intro to Electrical Engineering. Currently, I am teaching ELEC9405, Communications Electronics and Photonics and ELEC5511, Optical Communications Systems at USyd. My specialty and experience are in mathematics and physics; specifically calculus, linear algebra, and electrical circuits. For university students, I can tutor physics, including quantum mechanics, material science concepts, and the mathematics and concepts needed for electrical engineering. I have experience tutoring maths and physics at the high school and university levels in New Zealand, Australia, and the USA. (IGCSE, CIE (A, AS and Further Maths), NCEA, HSC, IB and SAT)

I am a practical learner and believe that theory should only be taught once the application of said theory is fully understood. Particularly in STEM subjects such as maths and physics. No young student truly understands what letters in a formula mean unless they understand the application. I aim to educate students in a simple, understandable way without all the technical jargon. Understanding a concept and how it is used is more important than names and rules. I am happy to help clarify concepts, work through tough homework problems (but not do them for you) and revisit/explain fundamentals that are often misunderstood.
