Information About Bill - Dublin tutor

Personal Description:

My name is Bill and I'm currently a Medical Physicist at St.James's Hospital in Dublin. I absolutely love what I do. I recently completed my PhD in Nuclear Medicine at UCD. My research focused on developing a new imaging method in Nuclear Medicine for earlier detection of cancers (liver, thyroid, brain, and bone).

I know what it's like studying maths & physics and what is needed to truly excel. I want to be a resource you can use to maximize points in the short term but also master the fundamentals of maths & physics in the long term. I'm very familiar with the Leaving Certificate curriculum and I've worked with many students over the years who've all gotten the results they wanted and therefore have the experience to help you succeed.

Tutoring Experience:

• Demonstrated expertise in mathematics and physics, with a strong understanding of fundamental
concepts, theories, and problem-solving techniques.

• Proficient in teaching a wide range of topics, including algebra, calculus, trigonometry, mechanics,
electromagnetism, and thermodynamics.

• Developed customised lesson plans and instructional materials tailored to students' learning styles, goals,
and academic needs.

• Helped students improve their grades, comprehension, and confidence in mathematics and physics
through targeted instruction and ongoing support.

Approach to Grinds:

My teaching methodology for maths & physics primarily focuses on making sure students understand the concepts that are being taught and are able to apply the tools I teach them to solve any problem. Teaching undergraduate maths &physics has shown me that a lot of students lack critical thinking and only regurgitate what they've been taught in secondary school. During my lessons, I want my students to develop a deeper understanding of what they are being taught. This will aid greatly in overall confidence and when approaching difficult problems. I really believe patience is key and that every student will move at a different pace. I have been teaching maths & physics in second and third level education for over 8 years and have been teaching online for the last 6 years. Lessons would be an hour long via Zoom.
