Award-Winning AP Physics 1 Tutors serving Quincy, MA

...them we can begin to understand how and why the natural world works. The sciences are what propel our civilization forward and hold the keys to our future. It is a genuine pleasure to be able to share my enthusiasm on these subjects with new students and hopefully make the daunting world of natural sciences more approachable. Outside of work and teaching, I enjoy building computers, SCUBA diving, playing the blues, and testing out new...

...currently an undergraduate at UCF studying Electrical Engineering. I have a passion for the new and the innovative. I enjoy researching new things in physics and technology and learning new ways of thinking about things I already know. My main interest, however, is alternative energy and sustainable technologies. I pride myself on being a friendly and charismatic person, with the ability to make people comfortable around me and also understand the importance of what I...

...Honor Society, then providing more informal one-on-one help to fellow students at MIT. I've also worked extensively teaching swim lessons for the past five years, particularly to beginners. Both in and out of the pool, I believe that a good lesson is one where the student is doing the thinking. I teach interactively, asking questions, listening to students. explanations, and probing students to produce the correct answer for themselves. I want to model thinking and...

...originally from Montclair, New Jersey and I went to high school in England, but I have really taken to Georgia since my dad moved down here 3 years ago. I love sports in general, but my favorites are football, soccer, baseball, and basketball. I also have a love of video games and video game design, which partially lead to my introduction into computer science. I'm passionate about all of my hobbies and interests and, having...

...graduated magna cum laude from Cornell University with a BS in engineering physics, and a math minor. I have been tutoring for more than 6 years. For 2.5 years, I taught math to Cornell Engineering undergraduates, and I looked forward to it every week! On Varsity Tutors, I tutor up to college level mathematics and physics, test prep (including AP courses, and SAT reading/writing). Explaining difficult math and science concepts in plain English is my...

I have always had a knack for seeing multiple solutions to a given problem (even receiving a little gag award for our fifth grade graduation, titled: "I have a better way to do that" award). In addition to the natural joy I get from tutoring, I also enjoy solving the puzzle of determining which solution method matches best with how each student learns and thinks.

Recent Yale graduate with a simultaneous B.S./M.S. in Mathematics. I have been coaching and tutoring students for years. Throughout high school I volunteered as a Mathcounts coach at my local middle school. I also worked as a counselor at the Ross Mathematics Program. I love math and science and hope to inspire the same in my students regardless of their level.

...have a BA in Economics from the University of Maryland and have been tutoring since 2011. I have experience teaching a wide variety of subjects to various age groups and educational backgrounds. I have a love of Mathematics, History, and the Sciences, and would want nothing more than to share this passion with you. My motto is that anyone can learn anything! It all depends on how it is being taught and how much time...

...concerned not just with my students understanding why an answer is right, but why the other answers are wrong. I have been a tutor for the ACT for 4 years and have seen immense improvements in each student I work with. Additionally, I recently wrapped up my own MCAT journey so everything that I learned to guide me through the process is fresh in my mind! I also am passionate about STEM subjects and love...

...am a graduate of Emory University, where I received a Bachelor of Science in Biology. I then received a Master of Science from Johns Hopkins University where I focused on Biotechnology. I am currently pursuing my M.D. in Boston, MA. During my time in graduate school, I tutored middle school and high school students in science and math. I love tutoring science, especially health sciences as I am in school to become a physician. I...

...my academic training, scientific research felt not like a mere career choice for me; but an opportunity to fulfill my fundamentally inquisitive nature. Along this journey, I chose to focus my study on neuroscience and obtained a Ph.D. in this field. Now, I work in the biotechnology industry: writing patents for universities, emerging biotechnology companies, and inventors alike. This academic trajectory has enabled me to garner a fierce strength in writing/editing, biology, neuroscience, and critical...

It brings me great joy to help transform a student from struggling to confident in Mathematics and Science.

...they finally achieve that "AHA" moment. I have tutored students of all ages from elementary school to college, but I believe the skills and techniques I have acquired teaching young kids can be applied to students of all ages. I like to have fun with students when tutoring through an interactive process to keep students engaged and excited about learning. Outside of academics, I like to spend my competing on the mock trial team, playing...

...languages fluently. My goal as a tutor is to provide students with the utmost comfortability in asking questions and learning to their full potential without any hesitation or concern about answering a question incorrectly, after all, in order to learn we all make mistakes. Initially, I seek to understand the learning styles of all of my students and how they feel most comfortable learning. This way, each tutoring session is as efficient and productive as...

...love the way it combines basic ideas - the derivative is the slope of a function at any given point, the integral is the area underneath a curve - with real mathematical rigor, and seeing students connect to these concepts is a delight. Calculus is essentially what got me interested in physics in the first place, and applying it to basic concepts such as the relationship between position, velocity and acceleration is another great way...

...that understanding why a solution works is much more important than simply memorizing. Earning my master's degree in education and becoming a teacher was my mid-life crisis. Before that, I worked in industry as a chemical engineer and then a project manager for many years after earning my Bachelor of Science at Cornell University. While I tutor a range of subjects, my favorites are chemistry and physics because I think that they are the most...

...am a graduate of Northeastern University. I received my Bachelor of Science in Health Science with a concentration in Communication Sciences & Disorders. During my time at Northeastern, I was a peer tutor for Physics 1 and 2 for the Life Sciences. I also received a CRLA Level 1 certification from the International Tutor Training Program Certification (ITTPC). While I can tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about English, Literature, Physics,...

I am a current physics major at WPI (Worcester Polytechnic Institute). I enjoy tutoring Physics and math. I believe anyone can learn math and physics, and that the two are often not as hard as most people might think.

I am a Computer Engineering and Computer Science student in the honors program at Northeastern University who has always had a passion for teaching others.
