I'm currently a Ph.D. student in Astrophysics at the University of Tokyo. I have obtained a Masters's in Physics, specializing in Computational Astrophysics, as well as a double major in Computer Science & Physics for my Bachelor's degree. I have 10 years of experience in mentoring high school and university students on their IGCSE, AP, IB, A-Level, and university physics exams/assignments. Teaching them the best ways to understand the fundamentals of physics and how best to handle the exams. Meanwhile, I also helped students to work on programming and other scientific projects involving astronomy as a part of my university’s outreach program.

Since my teens, I was extremely interested in coding and working with hobbyist electronics projects. I was also a part of an electronics startup with his roommates developing digital automation and IoT products and bringing them to market. My daily research work involves writing code to solve complex problems that run on a supercomputer in NAOJ, Japan.

Fun fact: I previously worked on important scientific projects like the EHT collaboration that produced the first-ever image of a black hole. Read less

Using an interactive teaching style through PowerPoint, videos, and graphics to explain complicated topics and boil them down to simple and easy-to-understand components. I'll teach the subjects based on your interests and passions rather than sticking entirely to a fixed syllabus. I'll make it fun and entertaining by drawing connections between the topic and everyday life. Read less
