I am very happy with our experience so far with Varsity Tutors. They matched my daughter with reading specialist Mary and she is wonderful! My 10 year old daughter feels happy after her sessions and believes her tutor has already helped her.

Sam

Certified Tutor

My name is Dr. Samuel Feldman. My entire life has been dedicated to science and education. Previously, I was an adjunct professor and biomedical engineering research scientist at the NYU Medical Center. For the last 12 years, I have taught Physics and Chemistry in New Jersey public high schools.
As your coach, I can help you achieve your personal goals whether it is to get a high score on a standardized Exam such as Advanced Placement or SAT 2 or just to do better in your high school science classes.
What you will discover is that Physics and Chemistry are not difficult once you have mastered the fundamentals. So, that is where we will start. Most of us are visual learners so I use visuals and everyday life examples. I have a tool box of props such as models and flash cards to help you accomplish this.
Once you have mastered the fundamentals, you can apply this knowledge to problem solving. I have study guides and sample tests for AP and SAT 2 Exams. (I also have copies of nearly every Physics and Chemistry text book used in New Jersey.) There is a lot of repetition and certain problem types show up on nearly every test.
Finally, I will coach you on test taking strategies and techniques. If you are taking a standardized exam, time management skills are essential.
If you select me as your coach, you will need to work hard but you will discover that mastering science can be fun.
