PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE POSTING YOUR QUESTION: While I am glad to offer HELP with problems, I refuse to SOLVE problems. There is a difference. Please do not just copy a question from a texbook or assignment. I WILL REJECT IT. I will only accept questions, if in addition to the statement of the problem, you describe in detail what you have tried so far in order to solve it, and what exactly is the problem you are encountering. In other words where/why are you stuck? I can answer questions at the level of the first couple of undergraduate years (in science and engineering) or below. You can ask me about algebra, trigonometry, basic probability and statistics, calculus (vector calculus), differential equations and Fourier analysis. I will not answer advanced (at the graduate level) math questions. Questions in Spanish are also welcome.

Experience
Over 8 years of private tutoring in Math and Physics. Five years as a Teaching Assistant in Physics.

Education/Credentials
BSc in Chemical Engineering. UNAM, Mexico. MSc in Chemical Physics. UNAM, Mexico. PhD candidate (5th year) in Physics. McGill University, Canada.
