Award-Winning AP Physics 1 Tutors serving Fairfield, CT

Hi students, I'm an experience professional who understands your frustration and can help correct missing or faulty prior instruction and address any subject matter obstacles. I have "real world" experience as a former science teacher and licensed engineer. My goal is to support your learning style, study methods and facilitate a solid mastery of the subject.

I am currently studying Electrical and Computer Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University. I have been tutoring math since high school and have experience tutoring in elementary school math, SSAT math, and high school algebra. I like to help students visualize solutions to problems and give them silly tricks that helped me understand and remember tough concepts.

I'm a Mechanical Engineering student at UNH. I have a lot of experience with all ages and a variety of subjects. I'm here to help you learn and grow as a student. I'm here to help!

I have been tutoring math, science, and English for the past 17 years (+15,000 hours of experience) to elementary, middle school, high school, and college students attending public and private schools. I have also taught students around the world in ESL and standardized exams.

My name is Allison, and I graduated from Yale University. I majored in Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology and am hoping to attend medical school next fall. I am currently working as a postgraduate researcher at Yale School of Medicine and am looking forward to working with students through Varsity Tutors!

...I love to teach math and science and have served as a math tutor during high school and engineering tutor for two college courses. Some of the most fundamental mathematics to understand are algebra and calculus, so I always seek to tutor these subjects as well as any others in which I am proficient. I enjoy playing musical instruments, including guitar, bass, drums, and clarinet. I also like to powerlift and am always open for...

...wrote me letters of recommendation stating that I was instrumental in them passing the class, because I was able to communicate difficult concepts in easy-to-undertand manners. My teaching philosophy is to guide and show, not tell, students how to complete complex problems and assignments. This includes going through multiple examples to make theoretical concepts concrete and asking questions that aid the student in fully understanding concepts, so they are able to solve new problems on...

...with large gaps in their fundamental skills. We focused on their own specific needs -algebra, grammar, reading- at whatever pace was right for each day. I saw many students make large strides in difficult classes and I had many very grateful customers. However the "Slow and Steady" motto is not always easy to sell in the high-stakes world of Test Prep. That's why I founded my own company. Tutoring works best when you start with...

...sharing my love for math with everyone else. I make sure that everyone understands the stuff they are learning on their own terms to make sure it is more accessible for future use. I was a Teaching Assistant for a Calculus 2 class last semester. I love baseball, swimming, and rowing. I also used to play chess competitively. I believe the way to truly understand something is to do it until you can explain it...

...I am the oldest of four kids. I graduated from Bethel High School and just completed my first year at Northeastern University as an Electrical Engineering major. I am a member of the Honors program, a tour guide on campus, as well as a member of the Society of Women Engineers chapter. I like to read, code, and hike with my dogs. I also enjoy volunteering in my community and working with children.

...to eight years both with different agencies and privately. I have direct experience tutoring Algebra (I,II), Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, Calculus, Physics (high school and college), Chemistry (high school and college), General Biology, Physiology, and Biochemistry. In addition to the subjects above, I also have experience in MCAT, SAT prep, ACT prep, GRE, and GMAT preparation. I've also tutored students enrolled in the IB program and different AP classes. My philosophy about tutoring is to quickly determine...

...well versed in calculus, linear algebra, differential equations, physics (kinematics + electromagnetism) and all necessary supporting mathematics. I am also a strong analytical/technical writer, drawing on my experience in a variety of college writing subjects. My tutoring style focuses on conceptual understanding of the material, which I believe facilitates quicker/more efficient problem solving and test-taking. I am a Power Engineering IEEE Scholar and Honors Student. Outside of tutoring, I am a SCUBA Diver, soccer fan,...

...taught Algebra there, as I have almost every year since: 5 years at college, 6 years middle school, and 7 years high school, here in Connecticut. At the middle school, I served as the head of the math department, IT, and SSAT testing, including English, verbal, and more. Along the way, I taught every math course from 5th Grade to Calculus. Algebra remains my favorite, but I enjoy them all! In 2012, I earned a...

...engineer by trade who enjoys sports & science. I also really enjoy teaching others what I know related to science, mathematics, and physics. Science is an exact way to describe how the world works and a way to explore opportunities to make it better. The reason I enjoy sharing what I know is that I also refresh myself, and in the process I get to meet new people and create new connections with people who...

...to continue tutoring people in the hopes that those students will truly understand the topics they are learning and, if they are truly invested in their studies, understand who they are as individuals and what paths they want to take in their lives. Personally, I found it hard to know what you want to do for the rest of your life in the short amount of time high school prepares the students, so I am...

...students with high needs. I shifted gears near the end of my college career and began tutoring kids in early education. I became a mentor for a middle school student and became his academic aid. I am currently tutoring high needs students from 2nd grade to 4th grade at a Charter School in Boston. Through my experience tutoring at various grade levels, I have learned how to cater tutorials to the needs of each individual...
