Award-Winning AP Physics 1 Tutors serving Mountainview, CA

I graduated from Cornell University in 2016 with dual bachelor degrees in biological engineering and biological sciences. Within biology, I concentrated in computational biology with an additionally strong focus in ecology and ecological applications of computation. I am currently working on my doctorate in Environment and Resources at Wisconsin-Madison, studying tiger ecology and conservation with sub-field foci on predator ecology, and modeling population dynamics. My tutoring strategy is to tackle topics of highest combined difficulty...

...in a variety of math and science based courses. At school, I've always helped tutor my friends in the courses we take together. Learning their habits, strengths, and weaknesses has allowed me to find out how they learn best, and then tailor my explanations to that style. My personal strength in communication has been as asset in all my tutoring. Everyone learns differently, and that's ok. I'm hoping to help students achieve their goals through...

...I am a continuous learner and I strive to teach that to my students. Once a subject is truly understood, tests will be easy, and great grades will follow. With this mindset, I have become talented at understanding where a student's problems with subject matter lie, mainly because I have probably experienced the same issues when I started learning these subjects. Now, I feel confident in passing on my knowledge to other people, and I...

...a semester teaching with a high school physics teacher in the classroom. Because my physics background entails studying a wide variety of math backgrounds I am qualified to tutor most subjects in both math and science. I most enjoy teaching calculus and physics because I find it beautiful how well they integrate with and play off of each other. Calculus is the language that describes physics, and a large part of physics is calculus applied...

...Engineering. I enjoy writing meaningful essays, and working on subjects of engineering such as math and physics. I also have a strong background in music, especially guitar. Additionally, having started school in special education and worked my way to an Ivy League school, I am very familiar with navigating learning disabilities and more common challenges with keeping pace in the classroom. I hope to be here to help you succeed, wherever your starting point is.

...have flipped seasons!) I am a recent 2022 graduate with a B.S. in Biology from Haverford College.In my time as a student, I have taken many chemistry, biology, physics, and math courses and I have served as a peer tutor for biological organic chemistry. I love learning, and I love sharing my knowledge and passion with others. I am also a skilled writer and love to help others by editing work! I have had trouble...

...school-specific essays. I believe that, with persistence and grit, students can develop an extremely solid foundation of learning that can aid them in tests and everyday life. I definitely stress practice problems and problem solving in my approach, however I am open and flexible to feedback and adjustment. As a tutor, I hope to aid students in attaining their full academic potential! Besides academics, I also enjoy spending time with friends, performing piano (especially classical...

I have two younger brothers who I tutored very often while we were growing up. I graduated from UCLA two years ago, and my younger brothers are currently in high school and middle school. As the oldest sibling, it was very rewarding for me to have the opportunity to provide mentorship and academic support to my brothers. As a tutor at Varsity Tutors, I strive to provide this same level of support to every one...

...I primarily tutor physics and math subjects. I especially love tutoring physics because it is an opportunity to make sense of the physical world surrounding us through mathematical relationships. Many students have difficulty with physics at first because it introduces new methods of thinking, so I love trying to help students reach that "click" moment where everything comes together. The actual calculations of physics problems may be daunting, but I aim to strengthen fundamental concepts...

...near the University of Illinois in my free time. I have lots of experience tutoring at all levels, in a variety of subjects: English Writing, Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Calculus, High School Physics, AP and College Physics, Spanish and Economics. Because I am studying Engineering, I also have learned a lot of practical applications for many of the subjects in which I tutor. I find that explaining the practical applications of an otherwise difficult subject helps...
