Since 2020, he has taught high school mathematics in Northside Independent School District, including Algebraic Reasoning, Algebra II, and Geometry. His classroom experience includes working with students across a wide range of academic abilities and learning needs, including English Language Learners, students receiving special education services, and students who are deaf or hard of hearing.
Jeremy’s expertise extends beyond mathematics into Physics and engineering education. He previously served as a Physics instructor for the Pre-Freshman Engineering Program hosted at the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA), where he taught college-bound high school students through classroom instruction and hands-on laboratory experiments. His lessons explored concepts such as electricity, force, motion, and the mathematical principles that explain how the physical world works.
In the summer of 2026, Jeremy expanded his STEM expertise through a Research Experience for Teachers program at Texas A&M University focused on machine learning. Building on that experience, he developed an innovative high school engineering curriculum introducing students to artificial intelligence and robotics. His students learn how to configure an AI program, transfer it to a VEX V5 classroom robot, and train the robot to recognize and pick up an object independently.
This work reflects Jeremy’s teaching philosophy: students develop a deeper understanding of mathematics and science when they can see how concepts are applied to real problems. Rather than focusing exclusively on formulas and procedures, he enjoys showing students how mathematics connects to technology, engineering, robotics, and the systems they encounter in everyday life.
Before entering the classroom, Jeremy developed extensive professional experience in technical and engineering-related environments. He worked with electrical and mechanical systems, audiovisual technology, and sophisticated animatronic equipment. In one particularly memorable role, he traveled throughout the United States and internationally installing, maintaining, and troubleshooting animatronic dinosaurs. These experiences required practical applications of electrical theory, mechanical systems, technical diagrams, and systematic problem-solving.
Jeremy brings that same analytical approach to tutoring. He helps students break complicated problems into manageable steps, identify where their understanding may be incomplete, and build the skills needed to solve problems independently. His goal is not simply to help students complete an assignment, but to develop the underlying mathematical reasoning and confidence that will serve them in more advanced courses.
Jeremy specializes in Pre-Algebra, Algebra I, Algebra II, Geometry, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, Calculus, Physics, and calculus-based Physics C. He also offers introductory support in Python programming, along with engineering and robotics concepts.
His background makes him particularly well suited for middle school and high school students who need additional support in mathematics, students preparing for more advanced STEM coursework, and learners who benefit from seeing practical applications of abstract concepts. His experience in both traditional classroom instruction and hands-on engineering education allows him to adjust explanations and examples to suit different learning styles.
Jeremy understands that mathematics and physics can be intimidating, particularly when students begin to fall behind or struggle to connect one concept to the next. He takes a collaborative, encouraging approach, working alongside students to identify challenges and develop strategies that make difficult material more approachable.
As a classroom educator, Jeremy has also worked in collaborative learning environments with students who have a variety of instructional accommodations and support needs. This experience has reinforced the importance of patience, clear communication, flexibility, and meeting students at their individual level.
