Carolyn S.
Private tutor in Toronto, Canada
Education
My ivy-league education includes a Ph.D. in Physics and Astronomy from the University of Pennsylvania with a specialization in theoretical cosmology, the structure, and the evolution of the universe. I also have a Bachelor of Science in Physics from Cornell University. I graduated Magna cum Laude. During this time, I earned the Kieval Prize in Physics. I was also a part of the Phi Beta Kappa and Golden Key National Honors Society and earned the Irving Tanner Dean's Scholarship.
Experience
I help students learn physics and math. I believe learning should be fun. I have an abundance of teaching and tutoring experience. I worked at Princeton University as an Associate Director of Science Education. I was a professor of physics at the West Chester University of Pennsylvania and a math teacher at STEM Civics High School. I am a certified Qigong Instructor by Wuwei Taichi School. Knowing that everyone can enjoy learning and applying scientific and mathematical thinking in their daily lives is what drives me to be the best tutor possible.
