Award-Winning AP Physics 1 Tutors serving Cleveland, OH

I believe that anything can seem easy if it's presented in the right way, at the right pace. If I can make a student interested in a topic and engage with their learning style, learning happens much faster and more effectively, and doesn't feel like work. I endeavor to interest students in any topic (but especially math) by giving them a sense of a larger context. In particular, I love to bring college-level...

...currently a student at Case Western Reserve University for computer science. In high school, I was a member of the Peer Tutoring and Mentoring Club and enjoy working with students, primarily in math and science. My favorite subject is physics because it combines science with math and is actually applicable to real life. My learning philosophy is to just do practice problems. The more practice, the easier each problem will be. Somebody can spend all...

My passion is to be able to allow students to experience the STEM field without the struggle. I want them to be able to enjoy and learn about their favorite topics without hating it. I believe STEM is an amazing field filled with so many opportunities. Students only need to be handed the correct resources to be successful in it. With the correct tutoring and motivation, anyone can come to love learning!

...an adaptive mathematically inclined information sponge. I am able to help breakdown complex concepts and tie them to more easily digestible ideas. Reading the material and conceptually understanding is just the first step in being able to apply theory. I have found that there is no good substitute to working through problems and to learn by doing them. Even if you don't get the correct answer the first time, reworking them will deepen that groove...

My overall philosophy of teaching is simple: I hope to make the students whom I interact with more curious and interested in the biological sciences, through storytelling and engaged learning. My emphasis is that Science is exciting, dynamic, and fun, not dull dry textbook!

...began my undergraduate education at Saint Louis University. Following the Jesuit ideals emphasized at SLU, I continued tutoring underprivileged youth in north St. Louis. I love sharing my passion for education with my students. During my senior year at SLU, I became a Physics TA and taught a class of 30 students the fundamentals of applied physics. On my journey to medical school, I studied hard for the MCAT and scored in the 98th percentile....

...thought pattern. Instead of just help students with their homework, I work to help them understand the content and teach them how think through the problems so they can approach new situations without hesitation. My students have statistically been the highest in the school both in their classroom tests and on their standard tests. I've had particular success with closing the gender gap for my classes. On average, boys do 12% better than girls on...

...performance on standardized tests as well as my broad undergraduate physics experience. It is my interests that keep me motivated, so I believe that it is important to make problems interesting or relevant to students, even if they do not consider themselves 'math people.' I value the humanities as well, and it is my experience as a guitar student and instructor that makes my approach to tutoring unique and valuable to students. My interests extend...

...educator, whether it's through formal education or just taking the time to explain something complicated to someone, has always been my calling. In my high school and college years, I would often struggle understanding concepts because I had this attitude that things were "hard"; that that was just the way it was. As I learned to teach myself and my peers when we would study, I realized that these barriers many of us have are...

...subjects including, Calculus 1, AP Physics 1, AP Physics 2, College Physics, Precalculus, Algebra 1, Algebra 2, and Astronomy. Although I'm not limited to these subjects they are what I feel most confident in.

...the child of teachers, and education is very important to me as a person. Communication and understanding, especially in the sciences is as important as it is sometimes difficult. Ultimately, I think that all students have their lives enriched by truly understanding the materials in all subjects, even ones that don't at first appear to be the ones that attract them. I hope that, by tutoring, I can help bring this joy to a few...
