I have studied mathematics for 6 years. At Penn State University I studied physics and minored in mathematics, and was also a peer tutor for math (including Linear Algebra) for my last two years. At t... he University of Cambridge I received a Master's degree in Applied Mathematics, and much of my coursework involved employing the use of vector spaces (which play the central role in Linear Algebra). Additionally I spend my time performing research which connects physics to an abstract space known as the Grassmannian, G(k,n). This space can be thought of as a space of k-planes in n dimensions, and points in this space can be represented by matrices (which also play a central role in Linear Algebra).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
