Hyungmin Park was born in Seoul, South Korea, and immigrated to Queens at the age of 4. An excellent math and physics student, Mr. Park graduated with honors in physics from Caltech and has dedicated himself to sharing his love of learning and physics with high school students. After earning a MS in Science Education in 2011, he began teaching at NEST+m. He prepares students for success through hands-on projects and popular after-school tutoring sessions: 96% of physics students pass the Regents Physics exam as 9th graders, and his students’ AP score average is 1.3 points higher than the global average. Mr. Park says, “Although I am a science teacher, my main motivation is to create critical, self-sufficient learners who have the skills to question everything around them and to learn how to find answers on their own.”
