Michael teaches Math, Physics, and Thermodynamics at both the high school and college levels. He is a recent graduate of the University of Texas at Austin, where he earned dual degrees in Mathematics and Physics, and is currently preparing to begin his Master’s studies in Particle Physics. During his time at UT Austin, Michael worked as a statistical research assistant analyzing error rates in noisy data sets for search engines. His academic research experience also includes low energy electron diffraction, Mössbauer spectroscopy, and positronium synthesis, giving him a strong experimental and theoretical foundation in physics. Michael has extensive tutoring experience, having worked with university students at St. Edward’s University across all levels of mathematics, as well as tutoring introductory university physics. He was also a founding member of the St. Edward’s Physics Club, where he helped build academic support and community for physics students. As a recent graduate, Michael understands firsthand how intimidating advanced math and physics courses can feel. He is especially well suited for students tackling challenging college level topics, including upper level physics and quantum mechanics. While quantum mechanics is a niche subject, Michael recognizes how demanding it can be and is happy to support students who need focused, high level guidance. Michael prefers to keep a limited number of students at a time due to the intensity of his coursework, allowing him to provide thoughtful, in depth support and help students build strong conceptual foundations that last.
