About Bingkun Qi

I'm Bingkun Qi, a science teacher at an international school, teaching physics, mathematics and advanced mathematics.

My studies and research have taken me to Fudan University, CUNY, Peking University and EPFL, with a research focus on non-Hermitian photonics. I also hold a Master of Engineering, Computing and Technology from Arizona State University.

From physics research to the classroom, I enjoy breaking complex problems into steps that people can understand and explore. I am also experimenting with AI-assisted development, turning everyday teaching needs into question banks and practice websites.
