I spent ten years as an engineer in the Power Production industry.

I have been a physics teacher for the past 30 years.

I will work to engineer your mind and impart the knowledge, skills & abilities needed to add physics to your toolbox and enhance your odds of success in your further pursuits. I am experienced in the identification of misconceptions, adapting to individual learning styles, building on strengths while shoring up weaknesses.
It is my passion and has a different approach for each student.

Now that I have retired from teaching in the classroom, I want to continue to offer the breadth of my experience to students that have a passionate interest in and/or are struggling with physics.

I am a certified AP Physics 1 & 2, University of Connecticut Early College Experience (ECE) instructor and have my Connecticut teaching certification in Physics and General Science.

Quote from a former student:
"Then in my junior year I enrolled in what I thought was to be just another science class, but my first year of physics was to change how I viewed my education. That year I was doubly blessed. I obtained my first taste of the world of physics, the field which I now plan to pursue. And, of equal importance, I was scheduled under one of the best teachers that I have had the ability to study under, Mr. Moore. It was his teaching that allowed me to learn the importance of the concept rather than the procedure. As soon as I actually grasped this lesson, everything became vastly simpler. Instead of learning a plethora of formulas that, for all that I knew, could have been plucked from thin air, all that became necessary was learning a few basic relationships and then applying them. One concept took the place of a dozen memorized facts. My grades improved and I began to enjoy the process of education. It became quite a lot of fun to actually understand something new nearly every day. I had to study less, and was still able to meet my own expectations."
