Award-Winning AP Physics 2 Tutors serving Cambridge, MA

It brings me great joy to help transform a student from struggling to confident in Mathematics and Science.

...and find that tutoring is very rewarding. My favorite moment is when I see the "light bulb" showing that a student understands what they need. I believe that understanding why a solution works is much more important than simply memorizing. Earning my master's degree in education and becoming a teacher was my mid-life crisis. Before that, I worked in industry as a chemical engineer and then a project manager for many years after earning my...

...spending the intervening period tutoring! I received my Ph.D. in Chemistry from MIT, where I was a Presidential Fellow and a Dept. of Defense Graduate Fellow, and my B.S. in Chemical Engineering from Tufts University, Summa Cum Laude with Highest Thesis Honors. Over the course of my scientific research career I have produced 14 research publications, given 12 talks at international conferences, including the largest annual Physics, Chemistry, Materials, and Chemical Engineering conferences in the...

I am a PhD in Experimental Condensed Matter Physics and Material Science. I have good research experience working with types of advanced material and instruments. I have good teaching experience and have been teaching for more than 10 years. I love to teach and feel happy when my students get a bright future.

Recent Yale graduate with a simultaneous B.S./M.S. in Mathematics. I have been coaching and tutoring students for years. Throughout high school I volunteered as a Mathcounts coach at my local middle school. I also worked as a counselor at the Ross Mathematics Program. I love math and science and hope to inspire the same in my students regardless of their level.

...time. The coursework in physics is an extensive overview of many mathematical topics, including algebra, geometry, and calculus (multi-variable or vector). A strong intuition of maths and the language used to describe physical phenomena is something I have gained in my studies, and lends itself well to teaching these topics to others. In addition, I also teach the classical guitar privately and in several private schools in Upstate New York. I am in my fifth...

...summer. While at MIT, I came to really enjoy teaching. I have degrees in Physics and Linguistics, and am proficient in a variety of subjects including (but not limited to) math, physics, English, and foreign languages. I am fluent in German (both speaking and reading), and I studied Spanish extensively in school. My teaching experience includes tutoring throughout middle and high school, as well as several teaching assistantships at MIT. I am familiar with many...

...AP biology students at the local high school. While I have studied and tutored biology in most depth, I also have extensive classroom and tutoring experiences in math, physics and chemistry, as well as standardized tests such as the ACT and the SAT + practice tests. I firmly believe in meeting students where they are at with their understanding, and fostering a relationship of trust and openness, and I believe that this makes the process...

...that a student should never be punished or shamed for asking a question, and moreover that my time is best spent on students who are struggling with the topic at hand - students who already "get it" don't really need my help, after all. In my spare time, I have generic nerd hobbies, i.e. videogames, reading, etc. Besides that, I attend a rock climbing gym (which I have found to be THE premier exercise for...

...I think these subjects are the coolest subjects, and also there's so much beauty in the things that we study. All motion in the entire universe can be expressed through mathematics. How cool is that?? I have a very laid back teaching style, and by that I mean I teach the fundamentals and do the example problems, and the rest I guide the kids to come the conclusion on their own. I believe that the...

...who helped me and saw potential in me. I hope to be that same positive influence for others. While I tutor a broad range of subjects I am most passionate about Algebra, Geometry, SAT math, and AP stats. My extensive experience in laboratory research has equipped me with higher-level skills in STEM that are built upon my foundation in Algebra, Geometry, and Statistics. In my free time, I enjoy chess, reading, meditation, swimming, and basketball.

I have tutored for two years. I excelled in math and science courses throughout school and would love the opportunity to help you do the same.

Learning isn't always easy; in fact it's often uncomfortable. This means it's possible to find meaning even in classes we hate or the ones we think we are bad at. For this reason, I hope to work with learners who might be uncertain about their interests and futures.

...a bachelor of science in physics degree from Northeastern University. I am currently a researcher and hope to get my PhD in physics. I tutor math and physics; my favorite subject to teach is physics as I have neat and intuitive tricks that has proved valuable! My philosophy for teaching and learning is, developing a foundational intuition; understanding why and how things work last forever. It is the "eureka!" moment which gets my deepest appreciation.

...but regularly since 2009. I have tutored college students in General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physical Chemistry and Japanese since 2009. I have worked with high school students since 2010 with many math courses and topics. Additionally, I have successfully tutored and prepared student for the SAT, ACT, GRE and MCAT. I have a proven track history of higher scores on practice tests and topic mastery. I don't just tutor the subject, I show your student...

I recently graduated from MIT with a degree in Mechanical Engineering. I have worked for companies such as Apple and Oculus VR as well as various MIT labs. In my free time, I love to exercise and read.

...of opportunities to pursue advanced coursework and opportunities that weren't available to 99% of students in the area. As a result, I've joined Varsity Tutors as an effort to give back and try to help students get excited about learning various subjects, employing many of the methods that allowed me to succeed. While I tutor a wide range of subjects, I am most passionate about standardized test prep, math (all levels), writing, and economics.

I am a Mechanical Engineering PhD student, with background in Engineering Design, Nano-materials and Nanotechnology and Energy. I good understanding of Sciences [ Maths, physics, and some chemistry]. I love to teach and I really want to help you understand that concept that seems difficult for you.

...gain an understanding about their studies and to guide them on how to apply what they need to know. I specialize in tutoring math, sciences, writing, and Spanish. I like to get an understanding of where each student is coming from and deliver catered instruction that aims to reinforce skills, build confidence, and challenge my students. I am friendly and professional and tutor in a way that is easy for students to understand. I hope...
