Award-Winning AP Physics 2 Tutors serving Vista, CA

I am currently a student at Ithaca College pursuing a degree in physics. I am very passionate about math and science especially, and I have found that teaching students is another passion. I have experience tutoring high school students in areas including algebra, algebra 2 and AP Physics 1. I love working with students to help them achieve their goals, and finding exactly what teaching style works best for which students.

...also a committed Teaching Assistant (TA), going so far as to get special permission to TA Logic as an undergraduate due to my passion for teaching the subject, and participating in cross-departmental Physics-Education studies during my two semesters as a Physics TA. I have always gone above and beyond in my teaching efforts, making sure that the learners not only understand the material, but come away with an appreciation of their own intrinsic worth as...

...Systems Engineering. In the past, I have tutored high school students in a wide variety of math and physics courses. I also have experience in helping students prepare for the SAT standardized test. I am a firm believer that education lies at the heart of a fulfilling and successful life and I strive to instill these values in all the students that I teach. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, golfing, and hanging out...

...greatly enjoyed helping many students increase their understanding of physics. I love seeing my students have a "light-bulb" moment where suddenly everything we discussed makes sense to them. I think it is extremely important for everyone to have (at least) a basic understanding of math and science as this helps us to better understand our world. I am greatly motivated to teach in a way that my students understand the fundamental principles and not in...

...many students in a wide variety of introductory science courses at the University of Michigan. Post-graduation, I have continued to tutor full-time in addition to doing research through the Michigan Clinical Outcomes Research and Reporting Program. I believe that all of the students I work with are intelligent, but often lecture-based learning does not fit their personal learning style. I love working with students to bridge this learning gap, helping them to genuinely understand course...

I want to help students understand math and science on a deeper level and build good mathematical and scientific intuition. I work closely with my students to find ways to teach that best complement their learning style.... I want to help students understand that learning for its own sake is more important than learning for any grade, test, or assignment.... I want to get to know the student personally, their strengths and weaknesses, hobbies, favorite and...

...the most! I think learning another language is one of the most applicable skills in life and knowing another language (or more!) can, and often does, open doors for new, exciting opportunities in one’s career and personal life. Physics is the most basic science and dictates many aspects of our daily lives, from the computers we do work on to the cars we drive. I enjoy showing students how physics can be applied to almost...

...sections. For STEM subjects specifically, my dual major allows me to communicate math ideas better than most other tutors. I also enjoy working on essays, and I often helped my friends in college with their papers. I'm particularly passionate about math and writing, and I believe that a teacher's enthusiasm in any field is infectious for the students. In my spare time, I enjoy watching movies, listening to music, both playing and watching basketball, reading...

...and SAT. I am very patient, and I enjoy working with students. When I tutor a student, I try to discover the root of the problem, usually a misunderstood or inadequately explained concept. Once I find the problem area, I can explain it as clearly and as simply as possible. If the student doesn't "get" the explanation the first time, I am willing to spend as much time on the concept as the student needs....

...SAT, and I strive to help every student I tutor gain the necessary skills and habits to achieve whatever score they are aiming for. Standardized testing and school in general can be a huge stress on students, and as a tutor I want to help mediate some of that stress by not only better preparing you as a student, but giving you whatever advice I may have to offer to help you feel better about...
