Award-Winning AP Physics 2 Tutors serving Des Plaines, IL

I am a recent college physics graduate with both formal and informal experience tutoring in math and science. I am currently enrolled in grad school physics courses and intend on start my PhD in physics this fall. I am a person who's passionate about learning, and loves to help facilitate learning in others. There's nothing that brings me greater pleasure than taking difficult concepts, and breaking them down into simple, easy to digest parts.

...the local middle school and high school would attend, and fellow students and I would perform a variety of educational demonstrations. As you might guess, the subjects I feel most confident in tutoring would be physics and math. However, I don't believe that to be the limit of my scope. I've always had an interest in the other sciences, things like biology and chemistry, and I've had ten years of piano lessons so basic music...

...the University of Illinois at Chicago. BioEngineering requires background in Math, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics, which is a very broad range of topics that I needed to master in order to succeed at my degree. It also requires creativity and curiosity to succeed in engineering. Although I have learned many things I continue to learn about the unknown because I am also part of a research team at UIC that studies traumatic brain injury and...

A kind, friendly, and knowledgeable tutor with great experiences in mathematics, physics, and engineering. I am passionate about teaching problem solving strategies that best fit students strengths. I firmly believe that everyone can learn, and there is a learning strategy that is best for everyone. Having tutored at the college level in a variety of formats, I believe every student has the ability to excel.

...People have all different types of backgrounds, passions, and goals. In students its these differences that excite me the most. I want to be able to get to know a student, so that I might learn about them, in order to help them learn. I am currently an undergraduate at Case Western Reserve University and I'm majoring in Mechanical Engineering. It should go without saying that because of this I love almost everything STEM related.

I discovered my passion for tutoring during my five years as a graduate student in the physics department at UIC. With my 5 years experience tutoring and teaching at UIC, I am excited to help your understanding! As a result of the ongoing pandemic, I will only be tutoring online for the time being. Thank you!

...3rd grade to college. I love being part of a student's learning and gaining that satisfaction when students understand an abstract concept with my help. Being privileged and fortunate enough to have had a strong foundation in a variety of topics, I feel that tutoring, teaching, and helping others understand my favorite subjects are the perfect ways to give back and provide that which I was lucky enough to have been provided.... My teaching philosophy is...

I am a bioengineering masters student at Illinois Institute of Technology with a 3.83 GPA. In the future I plan on applying to a neuroengineering PhD program and eventually work on understanding the cause and providing new treatments for mental disorders. My greatest skills are in probability and statistics, chemistry, and physiology.

...are removed from their homes by child-protected services. I have experience professionally in Medical Device Sales and in Mortgage Lending. However, my true passion has always been education and at this point in my life I feel it is imperative to align my career satisfaction with how I dedicate myself professionally to society. I am extremely self-motivated, I enjoy working with young minds (because they're often the most creative), and lastly I enjoy great challenges....

Academics and academia are my passions and it is a goal of mine to extend this passion to as many people as possible.

...Engineering, Physics and Computer Science on various levels. Even though my tutoring experience is very extensive, I love teaching physics and calculus. It's something I have to use in my everyday life as a research assistant and I like visualizing examples rather than memorizing formulas and theories to get my end results. I am what people call as a knowledge sponge. I love learning in general. You can find me doing Sudoku or crosswords in...

...and fellowships that have enabled me to pursue both full-time and part-time research in cardiovascular physiology. I have had the privilege of presenting my research at several conferences, including those at the Medical College of Wisconsin and the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse. I am extremely passionate about learning and enjoy teaching the subjects that have had such a profound impact on my academic journey. Beyond the content, I take great joy in sharing study tools...

PhD in Physics/Quantum Computing

...graduated from Michigan State University magna cum laude with a Bachelors in Physics and Astronomy in 2011. While there I worked as a teaching assistant for astronomy and advanced math methods courses. In 2018, I completed my Ph.D. in Physics from the Ohio State University (OSU). My thesis focused on a search for ultra-high energy neutrinos. While at OSU, I taught undergraduate courses in Newtonian physics, special relativity, and electricity and magnetism. I also participated...

...tutoring specialties lie in two areas: physics and mathematics, since as a trained theoretical physicist I practiced the subject matter of both every day for about 9 years; and the German language, since my graduate education was in Germany and I gained a high degree of proficiency. In math and physics, despite being ultimately able to reach a high level, I was never the first to pick up on any new concept but struggled through...

...ACT. My favorite subjects to tutor are Calculus and Physics because they are applicable with many things in your daily life. I am inspired to tutor those who are struggling in Math and Science courses because people are very discouraged while studying these subjects and I feel that, with the proper instruction, not only will people get better at those subjects; but they will become more confident in themselves. I believe that understanding something conceptually...

I'm a college-bound high school graduate soon to pursue a degree in Computer Science and a minor in Mathematics. I have a special love of Mathematics and love to help people love what they learn.

I am a seasoned tutor with over 5+ years of experience working with middle-school, high-school, and undergraduate college students on a multitude of subjects, as well as coaching potential applicants through the college search process.

...Urbana-Champaign Grainger School of Engineering. I am working to receive my Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering along with a minor in computer engineering. I not only tutor but am passionate in physics and mathematics as they are both the keys to clearly understanding how our world works. I understand every student has many different and optimal ways to learn so I tutor in a way that meshes well with each individual's personality.

...Grand Valley State University where I majored in Biomedical Science. This degree drew upon many disciplines where I have consequently gained a holistic and integrative understanding of the sciences. When it comes to turoring, I strongly believe in not just teaching the "whats", but also the "whys". I have found that using real world comparisons and a mixture of visual examples makes the material relatable and retainable. My goal as a tutor is not just...
