  • If I know it, I can teach it.
  • Luckily, I have had the opportunity to learn a great many things quite well enough.

About Me

The smartest thing Albert Einstein ever said, with all due respect to his many accomplishments, is, "If you can' explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough." That phrase has served as the model of my education and instruction. I have been tutoring peers and pupils in excess of 10 years. Teaching others is an activity I have naturally found to be rewarding, challenging and a lifelong pursuit. I have been helping others starting with my older brother's math homework in seventh grade, to getting friends through the AP Physics test, and finally, to this day, helping my mom with fractions while she bakes. In more recent years, I have been thoroughly engaged with tutoring during my college career. I have served as a tutor for a number of courses and subjects, both privately and in groups. I was a member of the Math Mentor program, instructing and testing multiple classes on fundamental mathematical skills. I have served as a Teacher's and Lab Assistant for several physics courses, both introductory and high level. In addition, I spent a year as a live-in Learning Assistant in a Freshman Residence Hall teaching study skills, time management, and other learning techniques. When it comes down to it, if it has to do with math, science or computers, I can help you learn it in your own way and in your own time.

Q&A with Henry

My teaching philosophy is that the only thing in the way of understanding is time and effort. I'm going to work with you to find how you learn best. Once we have that, I believe a strong foundation of understanding 'how' and 'why' are the keys to success.
