About
A simple physicist with simple ideas.
Master in Condensed Matter since 2017. My college experience showed me that one of the most important skills to develop in each of us is the resolution of highly complex problems: using creativity to propose hypotheses, testing and reformulating them until the final solution. This contrasts with memory strategies used by many students, often driven by exam assessment. In the short term these generate their results, but at the price of leaving behind the capabilities that will make one a true scientist. Critical thinking and analysis are essential.
I also have been tutoring high-school students for the past 5 years and college students from the past 3 in math and physics, from the many discussion of student difficulties stems a lecture series called Solid MATH, now available to everyone.
I've been doing my best to tutor the next generation of scientists.
