About Derek

I graduated with a Bachelors of Science in Physics with Highest Honors from Stevens Institute of Technology. I did the full IB Diploma in my high school and got a 7 in IB Physics Higher Level (out of 7). I really enjoy tutoring, and have been doing so ever since 9th grade (of course, since then, I started branching out into more advanced and more academically challenging lessons).

I've been fortunate enough to experience all kinds of teachers, and I feel my own teaching style has been something of a combination of all their best aspects. I always begin by figuring out what the student knows conceptually, without considering numerical answers at all. This can be done through questions or just diagrams (I will pretty much draw a diagram for every question). I then use guiding questions to push the student towards figuring out the answer on their own. In the end, my main focus is making sure that the student learns the concept rather than just the question, because then they can apply that knowledge towards future learning.
