I have studied physics at varying levels for 6+ years. At Penn State I obtained my honors bachelor's degree in physics. During this time I was also a physics learning assistant for modern physics, qua... ntum mechanics, and classical mechanics (the latter forming the typical AP physics curriculum). At the University of Cambridge I studied quantum field theory, which extends many of the ideas from classical physics to quantum systems. Additionally I spend my time performing research which connects physics to a differentiable manifold known as the Grassmannian, G(k,n). This space can be thought of as a space of k-planes in n dimensions. Scattering amplitudes (the most fundamental objects in physics) arise from considering integrals over this complicated space.read more

Hi I'm Douglas! I'm a theoretical physicist from Pennsylvania with a passion for physics and mathematics. I tutor multiple levels of mathematics at both the university and high school level. As someo... ne in theoretical physics, I am incredibly driven toward helping students understand the important roll mathematics plays in our universe. Outside of tutoring, I spend my time studying the deep connections between scattering amplitudes (the most fundamental objects in physics) and geometry. My philosophy is that a physical law must have mathematical beauty and elegance. Consequently I see mathematical structure in virtually everything, which only fuels my desire to teach this to others.read more
