Award-Winning Private Organic Chemistry Tutoring in Fremont, CA

"The student seems to still be doing very well in his physics course. He wants to review his cross products and review rotational kinematics. He is very strong with fluid dynamics though and should not need to review that too much for his upcoming test."

"Yesterday the student needed help preparing for a Physics test. She is taking an intensive physics summer class and is covering a lot of material in a short amount of time, so the tests are very challenging. She needed help most with density and buoyancy. These are problems dealing with heat exchange and phase changes, and pressure-volume diagrams. We covered the problems that she was struggling with and I answered some other remaining questions that she had. "

"The student and I met and discussed his course, and worked on developing a strategy to help him succeed. He is a terrific student that just underperformed on the first exam. His goal is to get an "A," and I think this is realistic given his dedication. We went over her first exam and worked through some of the problems. We then went over a couple of his homework questions on elastic collisions; we were stumped on a homework problem, and I looked over it on my own time before emailing him some tips. I also emailed him some additional practice problems at his request."

"We covered Coulomb's law and other topics from electricity and magnetism. We went through five homework problems and a review sheet for the student's test Monday. He is already performing well in the class but wants to ensure a high grade. No extra practice was given and there are no concerns with this student."

"We covered atomic theory and nuclear reactions by working through the student's assignment packet. The student had a good grasp on describing the components of an atom, but struggled a bit with the concept of half life and converting between mass and energy. We worked through several practice problems regarding nuclear fission and fusion. Lastly, we talked about medical and power generating applications of nuclear reactions and why fission is our primary source. The student's final exam is tomorrow, and I believe that he is well prepared."

"We worked on physics and did review on momentum and collision problems, mechanical and EM waves, electricity and magnetism, as well as specific heat problems."

"Today, we covered the topic of electric circuits and a little bit of electromagnetism. We first did a set of homework problems in detail about electric circuits, with most of the questions being about series and parallel circuits. We then moved on to review some of the lecture notes about electromagnetism and did two short answer problems on that topic. I thought that overall, he did a good job. I did not leave him with any extra practice."

"We talked about various properties of the electric field. We talked about what the electric field is and how it is defined. We talked about voltage and potential difference. We reviewed some energy and work concepts from mechanics as these are not fresh in the student's mind. We talked somewhat about problem solving as we solved some of his homework problems together. Moving forward, I will leave him with a short problem set that covers the essential concepts needed to do well in his class. "
