    About Kurt L.

    Hi! My name is Kurt and I'm a Caltech grad in Engineering & Applied Science who focused on applications of math, physics and computer system design & programming. I worked in the mobile communications field for 30 years and then started teaching and tutoring privately about five years ago. I have worked with the AP and IB programs, and do a lot of test prep for ACT, SAT, IB and AP. I have worked with students from 12-20 years old in all science subjects from remedial to advanced levels. I enjoy teaching the "concepts" of subject areas so that you can solve any problem like it in the future. I have a federal/FBI and state criminal background check from 2016.
