Award-Winning Physics Tutors serving Akron, OH

Hi - I'm still building my profile here, but feel free to email me!

I am a rising sophomore at Case Western Reserve University studying engineering. I have taken most high-school level standardized tests, and have scored consistently above the 95th percentile. I have tutored small groups of students throughout high school, and also have experience as a private tutor. Outside of the classroom, I enjoy playing Ultimate Frisbee with my college club team.

...math. I love tutoring because I am very passionate about STEM subjects and I enjoy sharing my knowledge. I believe anyone can succeed in typically difficult courses as long as they can find the correct approach to studying for that course and I want to assist with developing that approach. I have been a member of the Society of Physics Students for a few years and was recently elected president. In my free time, I...

...programs for elementary, middle school, and high school students, including mixed English-Spanish tutoring at a program for Hispanic students in South Bend, Indiana. I have always had a passion for mathematics and chemistry, but I also love to tutor in Writing and English. My goal is to help students realize their potential by providing more personalized interaction than the cookie-cutter approach used in many schools. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, figure skating, and...

...means a lot of team work, that includes training summer students and graduate students. Many times, I had to make sure that students understood their projects and could reproduce and troubleshoot experiments. I had to design the training plans for developing practical skills, as well as provide help in publishing data, editing overview and data analysis for poster and oral presentations. My philosophy in teaching is to help students see the main ideas and what...

...By always vocalizing my thought process, I make sure never to do that with my own students. A second foundation of my teaching philosophy is finding what my students are passionate about and connecting the area they are struggling with back to their interests. In High School, I enjoyed history much more than math. When I began to learn about the history of math, however, math suddenly became far more interesting to me, and now...

...first step in being able to apply theory. I have found that there is no good substitute to working through problems and to learn by doing them. Even if you don't get the correct answer the first time, reworking them will deepen that groove of understanding. Then each time the topic comes up a more intuitive understanding can be obtained. In my time away from books I enjoy staying physically active, from boxing classes to...

...best people on the planet, and I believe that education of any kind is the most rewarding act one can do. I currently teach AP Physics and Honors Physical Science, and I believe that I can bring a fresh perspective to my students. I always try and adapt to what my students need and not the other way around. In my personal life, I have many passions as well. I have a wonderful family that...

...lab at Memorial Sloan Kettering. My current lab is very interested in the epigenetics of cancer, and I also have research interests in gene therapy. I recently took the new MCAT and scored in the 98th percentile overall, with 99+ percentile in all the science sections. Outside of my medical and academic interests, I live for soccer! Last winter, I went to London and saw my favorite team Arsenal play in their beautiful Emirates stadium....

I have been a high school science teacher for the past 10 years. I have extensive knowledge of all science subjects and I am licensed to teach any science subject for 7-12th grade in the state of Ohio. I have a Bachelor's in Science Education and a Masters in Education with a concentration in School Counseling. I look forward to helping you!

...physics are my majors, mathematics is my favourite subject. The reason I am tutoring is that I want to provide help in mathematics and other subjects which I did not have for myself when I was in high school. Not only do I want to tutor because I have a feeling it will be beneficial for students but I also enjoy teaching. Whenever I show teenagers something cool about physics or math, they seem to...

...tutoring is very fulfilling. I obtained my Msc degree in Civil engineering from Southern Illinois University, and PhD from the University of Akron. I have been teaching engineering and math-related courses for the past 5 years. I believe through Varsity Tutors services, many limiting factors such as fear, timidity, insufficient time, which inhibits learning (in class room settings) can be overcome. I can help ensure that the right learning environment is created for you to...

...every standardized exam I've taken (SAT, PSAT, AP Calculus AB/BC, AP Statistics, Subject Test Mathematics II). I am an experienced test-taker: perfect AP scores on a wide range of subjects (Chemistry, English Literature and Composition, English Language and Composition, Psychology, US History, Physics II, Physics C, Calculus AB, Calculus BC, Statistics). Regarding college support, I work with a handful of students each cycle, with student acceptances into: Harvard, Yale, UCLA, Rice, UC Berkeley, Georgia Institute...

...and utilizing the theories of Physics and Mathematics since Mathematics and Physics were developed to serve Engineering purposes. I strongly believe that learning and mastering Mathematical and Physical subjects deeply influences person's academic experience, builds person's mentality, strengths his /her problem solving skills, develops his/her critical thinking skills, and teaches him /her creative thinking strategies by applying the scientific method approach in solving scientific problems. For a student, learning Math and Physics from an Engineer's...

Hello! My name is Angela. I am a senior at The University of Findlay double majoring in Pre-vet/Animal Science and Biology with a Chemistry minor. I tutor at the University of Findlay during the school year in various science and mathematics related subjects. I enjoy helping other students and peers to understand and learn the materials necessary for them to succeed.

...degrees. After earning my Bachelor of Arts in International Studies in 3 years, I spent one year working for an international education company before returning to begin medical school at CWRU in July 2017. I have tutored students aged 8 to 18 in algebra, geometry, biology, reading, ACT and several other subjects. I believe each student learns in his or her own way, and I work with students to identify study methods that work for...

...in math and science. My favorite subject is physics because it combines science with math and is actually applicable to real life. My learning philosophy is to just do practice problems. The more practice, the easier each problem will be. Somebody can spend all day just studying notes, but he or she will learn best by just doing practice problems. Outside of school, I own a website design business and I enjoy to do anything...

...for any AP or regular English class or for college essays. In the foreign language department, I'm happy to help Spanish students in Spanish 1 through 3. In science, I'm happy to help students currently studying AP Biology, Physics Honors, and AP Statistics. Finally, anyone needing help with ACT, SAT or PSAT Prep should come to me as I've helped students raise their scores in all sections and have achieved National Merit on the PSAT....

...some of the lowest performing schools in the country with a minimum commitment of two years. I stayed a total of four years at my placement school.
