About Joey R
Hello! My name is Joey! My subject areas of expertise are physics and astronomy, and I've been teaching for 10 years, both high-school students and 1st-year students at the college/university level. In teaching physics, I try to break down every idea into bite-sized concepts that are familiar. Physics can feel overwhelming at times, but at its core, I believe there is some common ground everyone can connect with in their own way, and that makes for a great place to start.
