Award-Winning AP Physics 2 Tutors serving Newton, MA

...I attended an all-male boarding and day school for high school, and was given a lot 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...

I am an engineering graduate living in Boston with years of experience in academic tutoring. I'm very visual (diagrams etc.), and I put a lot of focus on identifying specific points of misunderstanding that can be addressed to make the learning process easier.

...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 to get the chance...

...TA, as a volunteer in local schools, and as a frequent contributor to the student science magazine were some of my most rewarding experiences in college. Outside of academia, I love the outdoors, especially camping and back backing. After graduating from Swarthmore I worked as a caretaker on the Appalachian Trail for four months, and am now settling down to tutor full-time until hiking season comes back into full swing. Next fall I hope to...

I got my degree in Physics with a minor in Political Science from Wheaton College in MA. I tutor Physics, Calculus, some Computer Science, Latin, and Writing. I particularly enjoy tutoring Writing because I spend most of my time these days writing anyways. I would describe my tutoring style as very dynamic and example-driven. I'm pretty good at coming up with exercises and methods on the fly, which has served me well so far.

...happiest teaching math, which is a lifelong love. I believe strongly in the ability of education to improve one's quality of life; I still enjoy learning new topics every day. I want students to be able to use their knowledge to solve problems; pure memorization simply to pass a test is not my idea of a good education. In my spare time, I enjoy reading the classics I missed when I was younger, playing chess...

...University in Boston in 2017. Since then I have been working as a Manufacturing Engineer in the materials science industry. I have been tutoring for the past 9 years. I tutor math and science at any grade level. My favorite subject to tutor is math because I love helping my students solve problems that they previously thought they couldn't solve. I believe that anyone can succeed if they put in enough time and effort. We...

My name is Jill, and I graduated with a BA in Physics from Grinnell College. I've been a tutor and mentor for more than four years, and love teaching science and math in ways that empower students to be critical thinkers and creative problem-solvers.

I'm a University of Massachusetts Amherst, B.S. Biochemistry and Neuroscience candidate. I tutor STEM subjects and I've been a TA in some of my college courses. My tutoring philosophy is to let the student guide the tutor in what they want to be taught and for the tutor to step in when necessary.

...New Hampshire. Im experienced in getting to know the learning styles of students of all ages and ability levels and developing personalized approaches to help them master their material. I work in all of the following subject areas: * Math - basic number skills, pre-algebra, algebra I and II, precalculus, calculus, geometry, trigonometry, probability, and statistics * Science - basic physical/life/earth science courses as well as high school biology, chemistry, physics, and environmental science * English...

...PhD in Physics after college. I have previous experience tutoring middle and high school students. The subjects I'm best equipped to tutor are: math, at any level up to college-level differential equations, and physics, whether at the high school level or a calculus-based college course. My favorite subject to tutor would probably be calculus. When I took calculus in high school, it was pretty life-changing for me, and so I like to help other students...

...answer is right, but why the other answers are wrong. I have been a tutor for the ACT for 4 years and have seen immense improvements in each student I work with.

I am passionate about Astronomy and truly believe that learning about the wonders of the World and Universe around us truly enriches our quality of life...

...subjects, though I am not against Physics, Programming, or other related topics. My philosophy of teaching is 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...

...of my extensive lab experience over the last few years. I love experiments and creating my own projects and I hope I can pass this passion onto others. My tutoring style involes a lot of interaction with the student on zoom. I'm able to draw on the computer screen and I can convey information very easily. I also build custom timeline which targets a student's weak points, so that they will be able to learn...

...in Physics at Northeastern University, but I hope to continue to teaching throughout and after the program. I love helping students reach their potential. The pride and joy of watching my students come to an understanding with new concepts, develop a love for new disciplines, and find passion for learning -- it is the most beautiful thing I have experienced. And it's all thanks to you, the amazing, bright, and motivated students!
