There is an area of overlap between each school subject (even standardized tests, which require critical thinking!) and a student's goals, and it's usually bigger...

New York High School Physics Tutoring FAQ
Physics is a branch of science that deals primarily with the nature and properties of matter and energy. Students typically begin learning about physics at an in-depth level during their time in high school. The goal of most high school physics classes is to provide students with the fundamental knowledge they need to find success in physics coursework at the collegiate level. The exposure that students get to physics in high school can also help them decide if they'd like to major or even work in a field that deals with physics. However, like many science courses, physics can be hard to fully understand. If you'd like some extra help with your coursework in this subject area, then you may want to consider working with a high school physics tutor. Contact Varsity Tutors if you'd like to learn more about the high school physics tutoring options that are available.
High school students who are studying physics will be asked to learn about a variety of topics. High school physics tutoring is a great way to get extra guidance with whichever physics topic you're struggling with. Your tutor can cover things like:
Newton's laws
Energy, temperature, and heat
Electricity and magnetism
Waves
Reflection and refraction
And more
Learning physics from a high school physics tutor is a unique academic opportunity. This is true because you and your tutor will meet together for one-on-one learning sessions. Your tutor can create customized lessons for you that are based on things like your interests, goals, and learning style. Your tutor can help you stay engaged and having fun throughout each tutoring session by using a variety of instructional mediums and methodologies.
