Aaron
Certified Physics Tutor
Aaron
BA The University of Texas at Dallas • Current Grad Student, Mechanical Engineering Duke University
10+ Years Tutoring

Mechanical engineering grad school is essentially applied physics on repeat — Aaron solves statics, dynamics, thermodynamics, and fluid mechanics problems daily, so the concepts in introductory and AP-level courses are second nature rather than something he has to dust off. He's especially sharp at breaking down free-body diagrams and energy conservation setups, connecting the physical picture to the math so students see why an equation applies instead of guessing which one to use. Rated 5.0 by students.

Christopher
Certified Physics Tutor
Christopher
BA Harvard College
1+ Years Tutoring

Studying mechanical engineering at Harvard means Christopher doesn't just remember physics — he's actively building on it every semester, from Newtonian mechanics and thermodynamics to electromagnetism and wave behavior. He breaks down complex problems by teaching students to draw clean free-body diagrams, identify which conservation law applies, and translate word problems into solvable equations. That systematic approach turns intimidating multi-step problems into manageable sequences.

Charles
BA Yale University
1+ Years Tutoring

Engineering is applied physics, which means Charles doesn't just remember the formulas for kinematics, energy conservation, or rotational dynamics — he uses them to solve design problems at Yale every week. That practical fluency lets him explain not just how to set up a free-body diagram but why each force matters and what happens when you change a variable. Rated across math and science subjects, he's especially sharp on real-world application problems.

Justin
BA Washington University in St. Louis • Doctor of Philosophy, Computational Mathematics University of Chicago
9+ Years Tutoring

Three years of tutoring introductory physics at Washington University gave Justin a sharp sense of where students get stuck — usually at the gap between understanding a concept verbally and translating it into a free-body diagram or equation. His dual bachelor's degrees in physics and math, plus doctoral training in computational methods, let him attack problems from both the physical intuition side and the mathematical machinery side. Rated 5.0 by students.

Andrew
BA University of North Texas • Doctor of Philosophy, Biomedical Engineering Vanderbilt University
6+ Years Tutoring

A PhD in biomedical engineering built on a bachelor's in physics means Andrew has spent years solving problems across mechanics, electromagnetism, and thermodynamics. He teaches physics by emphasizing free-body diagrams, unit analysis, and the habit of translating word problems into mathematical models before reaching for formulas. That systematic approach turns intimidating multi-step problems into manageable sequences.

Kate
MS Massachusetts Institute of Technology • BA Massachusetts Institute of Technology
1+ Years Tutoring

Engineering is applied physics, so Kate spent years solving the exact kinds of problems — free-body diagrams, energy conservation, circuit analysis — that show up in introductory physics courses. She walks through each problem by identifying what physical principle applies and why, which builds the kind of intuition that makes new problems feel approachable instead of intimidating.

Akarsh
MS Yale University • BA Yale University
9+ Years Tutoring

Akarsh's cellular and molecular biology training — both bachelor's and master's — required grinding through the same mechanics, thermodynamics, and electromagnetism that physics students face, particularly in biophysics coursework where forces, pressure gradients, and energy transfer aren't optional. He tackles problem sets by first isolating which physical law is actually at work, then mapping the math onto it step by step, so students stop guessing at formulas and start reasoning through solutions.

Phillip
BA Brown University
6+ Years Tutoring

Most physics struggles come down to one thing: not knowing how to start a problem. Phillip teaches a systematic approach — draw the diagram, identify the forces, pick the right coordinate system — that turns intimidating multi-step problems into a sequence of smaller, solvable ones. He's taken physics through the college level as part of his biomedical engineering degree at Brown and knows exactly where conceptual gaps tend to hide.

Zosia
BA Yale University
4+ Years Tutoring

Three science degrees from Yale — including one in chemistry — mean Zosia has worked through mechanics, thermodynamics, and electromagnetism problems repeatedly across disciplines, building the kind of cross-subject fluency that makes her especially clear on where physics concepts connect to the math underneath. She digs into the specific step where a student's reasoning breaks down, whether that's setting up Newton's second law for a pulley system or tracking signs through a conservation-of-energy equation. Rated 4.9 by students.

Ellie
MS Yale University • BA Yale University
6+ Years Tutoring

Engineering students see physics differently than most tutors do — every force diagram, energy conservation problem, and wave equation is a tool they actually use. Ellie's biomedical engineering program at Yale means she tackles mechanics, electricity, and thermodynamics regularly in applied contexts. She unpacks the math behind each physics concept so students understand the equations instead of just memorizing them.

Brian
PhD University of California-Santa Cruz • BA California Institute of Technology
9+ Years Tutoring

A Caltech economics and computer science graduate, Brian brings serious quantitative depth to physics — from Newtonian mechanics and energy conservation through electromagnetism and wave behavior. He teaches students to set up problems systematically, identifying which principles apply before touching a single equation, which is the skill that separates students who understand physics from those who just memorize formulas.

Eric
BA Duke University
8+ Years Tutoring

Eric approaches physics the way his Duke engineering program taught him: start with a free-body diagram, identify what's conserved, and let the math follow from the concept. Whether it's projectile motion, circuits, or rotational dynamics, he walks through each problem type until the setup becomes second nature.
