Mohamed Cherif

College physics teacher holding a doctorate in energy and materials sciences, with two years of recent experience at Cégep Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu. Teaching experience with students in Natural Sciences and Mechanical Engineering Technology programs, including mechanics, waves, modern physics, and applied physics. Extensive scientific background in modeling, simulation, materials, energy, and data processing.

I favor a structured pedagogy centered on understanding phenomena, problem solving, and the connection between theory, laboratory work, and technological applications. My research experience allows me to enrich teaching through a rigorous scientific approach and examples drawn from contemporary fields.
