Award-Winning Physics Tutors serving Alexandria, VA

I am a student at the Catholic University of America (Washington, D.C. campus). I received my B.S. in International Economics and Finance. For the past several years, I have tutored various subjects including mathematics, physics, Chinese philosophy etc. in the arts and sciences, and helped my clients/students to meet their study goals. I am fluent in English, Mandarin Chinese (traditional and simplified), and French.

My career began with studying and working in the field of radio electronics, followed by aquiring B.S. Degree in Electrical Engineering. Having worked in the fields of telecommunicaton and IT, I got my MS Degree in Networks & Communication Management; in addition to Graduate Certificate in Wireless Communication. My further CCNA certification from Cisco depicts my real world computer network knowledge. I enjoy swimming and aerobics as a hobby.

...for math and hard sciences such as chemistry. When students learn the correct way to approach problems, they learn not only their subject, but they learn "how to learn". Learning technical subjects need not be cold and rigid - creativity is valuable in any subject! In short, I like to teach in such a way that the student learns how to do the problem themselves, instead of just copying the tutor's solutions.

...left and right brains, I am proficient at both the STEM subjects and fine arts. During my free time, I like to play the piano, make music, make realistic origami, and develop games, and I have ample experiences in these areas that I can teach these as well, for those who are interested. I will be a good help in almost all high school STEM subjects, including AP classes, and you should consider me especially...

...Cornell University in 2010. After working in my field for five years, I decided to return to school to pursue a degree in engineering. I am currently a student at the Clark School of Engineering at University of Maryland. My favorite subjects are math and physics - I love problem solving! I feel that math and science are exciting and should ignite everyone's interest. Along with this enthusiasm, I bring patience and humor to my...

I've been tutoring math and science for the last ten years. I really like this job because I enjoy working with kids, and I also love to talk about my interests. This is a great job. My hours are flexible, and I can re-arrange times to fit your needs (for example, if there's a test on Tuesday, I could come on Monday instead of the scheduled time). I can also tutor both SAT and GRE.

...degrees from Smith College and Columbia University and a decade of experience performing scientific research (I've even sailed on five oceanographic research expeditions!). As such, I enjoy being able to demonstrate to students how the math and science concepts they're learning in the classroom are applied in real scientific investigations. When working with students I use an inquiry-based approach to gently guide them toward the correct solution. This gives them ownership of their learning while...

...and Medicine. Prior to medical school, I participated in the first FDA-approved human clinical trials in the U.S. on a novel cold plasma therapeutic device for cancer surgeries. I have also worked with Ascension Medical Educators, a clinical advising services firm for underrepresented and underserved minorities looking to enter the profession of medicine. I have tutored extensively around the world and am excited to inspire and empower those who I get the honor of tutoring.

I have extensive tutoring expirence ranging from precepting for Cell and Molecular Biology, Mathnasium and various honors societies. Through these diverse experiences, I have learned to adapt my teaching styles to match the needs of the student. I would be happy to help you with whatever you need.

...levels and adults in a variety of subject areas. My concentration in Special Education has afforded me the opportunity to have developed a multitude of skills and strategies for teaching. I use this knowledge to instruct in all academic subjects, vocational and life skills, and personal development. I don't have a particular favorite subject to teach. My joy comes from watching someone grasp a new skill or concept that they did not have, or think...

I have degrees from the University of Maryland and Caltech in astronomy and planetary science, and use physics in my research. I know from personal experience that a good teacher can be life-changing. With a strong science background, patience, and active listening skills, I help students excel in learning math, physics, and chemistry, as well as admissions test-prep.

I am a rising Junior at Washington and Lee University and am an Engineering Major with a Minor in Mathematics. I play baseball at Washington and Lee, and tutor Math and Physics.

I have a B.S. in Mathematics from East Tennessee State University and an M.S. in Mathematics Education from Radford University. I have been a high school mathematics teacher for 9 years working to help every student reach their full mathematical potential. I have taught several secondary math subjects including Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, IB Mathematics, Computer Science (Java Programming) and AP Calculus.

I grew up in Europe and have moved to America 8 years ago. I speak French, Italian and English fluently and am currently completing my Masters in Applied Mathematics and Systems Engineering. I have a passion for helping others in their learning journey, especially in overcoming their learning challenges. I have a wide experience in various forms of tutoring and teaching from Calculus II to Physics.

...Teaching Assistant for the FSU Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry. I spent my time teaching for the Organic Chemistry Laboratory course, as it is my favorite subject. I also have worked tutoring pre-medical and pre-pharmacy students in all of the prerequisite science courses for their respective school. I have found that the best way to tutor a student is to address each students needs and gain an understanding of their unique thought process; nobody solves...

...the proverbial elementary spectrum. In fourth grade, I taught 9-and-10-year-olds science and math and as a kindergarten teacher I focused mostly on teaching children to read and basic mathematics. These very different experiences have provided me with a deeper, more meaningful understanding of what students need to be successful both academically and socially at different developmental stages. Finally, I love to learn and I love to teach! I hope that I will have the chance...

...you pursue in learning. After finishing my college study (EE) from the top university in China, I came to the US for graduate study in physics, when I started teaching as a TA in several EE courses such as semiconductor physics and computer architecture. I got the PhD degree in 2013, and then move to another university to continue scientific research, and later became a research professor, teaching undergraduate and graduate courses in physics. My...

Olisa Menakaya was born and raised in Texas and Tennessee. He is currently working as a chemistry teacher in Maryland and has over a decade of experience in science education. He also won national recognition on his release of a hip-hop chemistry album titled "Life of a Black Chemist" in a 2013 Tennessee Tribune article. In his spare time, he loves to read, write and watch movies while learning more about chemistry.

I may be the teacher but that does not stop me from learning in the process, as well.
