David W.
Private tutor in Cerritos, CA
Education
B.S. in Physics from Shanghai Normal University in 1983; M.S. in Physics from Tong Ji University in 1987; Second M.S in Physics California State University, Long Beach in 1995
Experience
-Have taught two years of middle school, 9 years of high school. -Is a current high school math teacher. -Have three years experience of teaching AP Calculus and AP Physics at two tutoring centers. -Motivation for becoming a tutor: since I'm a teacher, I understand the weaker areas of the typical math and science curriculum; I'd like to fill in the gaps for some students. Other experience and qualifications: -Have a Crosscultural Language and Academic Development Certificate. -Have many years of experience teaching English learners. -Have substantial experience in industry. -Have designed a package with the aid of heat transfer theory for the Mach-Zehnder interleaver so that the output signal of the interleaver will not drift due to the change of ambient temperature. Have filed a patent disclosure for the interleaver package design. -Have developed a new method with beam propagation theory and coupled mode theory to make optical coupler for the Mach-Zehnder interleaver and solved the problem of the long-term drift. Have filed a patent disclosure on this method. -Have designed Fiber Link DVI Transmission Optical/Electrical and Electrical/Optical Digital Circuits. -Have developed mathematical models and make predictions based on theoretical treatments of studied phenomena; eventually developed a theory and a method with Computational Physics and physics based modeling skill to measure the thickness, optimized thickness, and dielectric coefficient of gold thin film on plastic sensor.
