Award-Winning AP Physics 1 Tutors serving Cleveland, OH

...to showing students how to solve a problem, I can give them an understanding of mathematics so that they can successfully create the steps to solve a problem that they have never seen before. I have successfully worked with students who came to college unable to add fractions and enabled them to graduate with engineering degrees. Everyone learns differently. I strive to identify the learning style that works for each student and build success from...

...UofSC with a Bachelors of Science in physics, math, and psychology, I felt drawn to continue my education on account of a strong passion for learning and an opportunity to assist in that education process for other students as a teaching assistant.

...over various roles, I have been teaching and tutoring for a sum of five years (as of the end of 2016). My hobbies range over topics such as fun reading and being part of several fandoms (Harry Potter, Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Wheel of Time, Kingkiller Chronicles, and several others), academic reading and history podcasting, conlanging (creating languages), camping/hiking, kayaking, Boy Scouts/Scouting, puzzle solving (blacksmith's puzzles, Rubik's solids, etc.), and playing with math....

...then teach the concept back to ensure proficiency. First, I will provide effective and clear teaching through simple analogies and example problems. Then, I'll gauge and reaffirm if the student has truly mastered the concept by having him or her teach it back to me. Lastly, I'll have the student complete a problem after learning the material and then revisit the concept and see if the student can still teach it back to me. This...

Hello! My name is Gavin (or Mr. Custer) and I'm excited to be your science tutor. I am currently working on supporting aerospace academy programs focused on increasing underrepresented groups in STEM fields, but before this I was a high school physics teacher for seven years. I love to teach, and I love helping students be able to understand the world around us. I'm looking forward to helping you learn! @gavin.custer on Instagram

Helping students navigate through academics.

Having studied physics in college and worked in biomedical engineering, I am no stranger to technical jargon. But it is that jargon which (for me at least) makes learning more difficult than need be. Therefor, I have made it my goal to increase comprehension by eliminating the "big confusing" words that inevitably arise.

...in math, English, science, SAT and ACT prep. I scored a 36 on the ACT and 1590 on the SAT. I cater all my lessons individually to each student, and work with the student to make sure their needs are met. I also provide notes and summaries of lessons, so that students can retain what they learn. I believe practice is the best way to learn so I always integrate practice problems into my lessons.

...Biology BS and Biomedical Engineering BS candidate at Notre Dame College. Outside of school I am a resident assistant, a varsity soccer player, and member of the biology, chemistry, and philosophy clubs. Additionally I volunteer through a local nonprofit at various nursing homes, as well as coach 8-12 year olds at my previous soccer club, Cleveland United. My hobbies include playing soccer and playing the guitar. I am happy to help with Mathematics and Science...

...Western Reserve University, a Bachelor's degree in Mathematics from University of California Santa Cruz, and a high school diploma from Phillips Exeter Academy. I do all subjects in mathematics, from elementary school to college. I also scored above a 90th percentile on my MCAT and am very strong in biology, chemistry, and physics. I have been tutoring and helping my classmates since elementary school, and I simply love to help out students!

...CSU as well. I am available to tutor all levels of Mathematics and Physics, but Physics is my favorite subject to tutor because I think it is at the core of all sciences. I believe that practice makes perfect so my preferred way to teach is through lots to practice and hands-on learning. In my spare time, I enjoy running, playing soccer and chess, and spending time with my wife and son.

...of subjects, I have always had a particular passion for math and Chemistry.

I particularly enjoy tutoring mathematics and science to educate and inspire the next...
