Award-Winning Physics Tutors serving Alexandria, VA

Hello! My name is Samir Nader, a student striving to learn as much as I can and to help others achieve the same. My goal is to be able to teach you in a way that allows you to not only learn the material, but to UNDERSTAND it. I will ensure that when you walk out of our tutoring session, you have zero questions and that you fully understand everything I have taught you.

...to understand something that they were struggling with, especially when it's a subject or idea which I am particularly passionate about. I am capable of tutoring in most disciplines of math and science, however my favorite subjects to teach specifically are chemistry and engineering since they are my favorite subjects to learn. I love the feeling of figuring out how to solve a problem or understanding a concept which I had been confused about, and...

...and editing. My teaching philosophy is to be positive, supportive, and enthusiastic for my student. I emphasize teaching chemistry concepts and how to apply them when approaching a question, a method I wish I had used more when I was an undergraduate in chemistry! I have tutored both high school and collegiate chemistry for five years and I greatly enjoy getting to know a student and seeing them evolve. Additionally, I was an adjunct chemistry...

...physics and mathematical science. My skills in open-mindedness, patience, motivation, and enthusiasm are useful skills that I want to share and pass on others. I loved the teaching profession through my understanding that the responsibilities of a teacher do not end at a specific point. These responsibilities always guide the teacher to make someone's life better and become a part of it forever. With all my potentials I look forward to being able to contribute...

...favorite class to teach being calculus. It always feels so rewarding when the pieces just *click* in the mind; especially with a class like calculus. I am also a firm believer in keeping the motivation to learn going (like a fire). I teach by ensuring success, even in small steps, making it exciting to keep going. In my spare time, I like to train boxing, play video games, and play whatever instrument I can find.

...can tutor for IB Mathematics Standard Level and Studies, as well as IB Theory of Knowledge. The IB has shaped my academic experience greatly, and I feel that I am equipped to help (and relate to) students in the same position as I was in. I believe that everyone can find a way of learning best for them, and I hope to find that with each student. I like to incorporate a student's current interests...

...University of Maryland: Baltimore County. I have been interested in various forms of STEM (mainly chemistry, engineering, and math) my entire life and I have had the honor of experiencing those fields in the real world such as interning at a real biomedical laboratory and being the former computer-aided design captain of my high school's FRC robotics team. I love assisting my peers in my classes on the content they are struggling with.

A friendly engineer who loves to give away knowledge and skills to students.

I strive to help both struggling and ambitious students in a way that is tailored, effective, and efficient.

...in my teaching is the tendency to memorize content instead of gaining a deep understanding. Oftentimes, students memorize the problems and answers to a practice test, only to score poorly when the exam has slightly different or more difficult questions. Instead, I focus on achieving those "a-ha!" moments by building up understanding until you not only know the right answer, but truly get it. In my free time, you can find me building and launching...

Hello! My name is Mallory, and I recently graduated from UNC-Chapel Hill in North Carolina! I love math, science and reading and have even taught 9th grade! I am excited about working with you!

I am currently working to get my Master's degree from Purdue University. I love tutoring people because growing up it was something that I was very scared to ask for but helping others who do reach out makes a huge difference in their own confidence in their academic life.

...found the best way to teach in a one on one environment is to connect with my students and through personalized attention find out where their strengths and weaknesses lie, then to work with them to build a foundation around their weak areas to achieve a comprehensive understanding of the subject material. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy an active lifestyle; through high school I was a sprinter on the track team, played for our varsity...

I hold multiple degrees in physics, with a wide range of additional interests and subjects. I'm dedicated to teaching technical concepts in a manner that is as concise and easy to understand as possible, while still maintaining the "practice makes perfect" philosophy. I'm also happy to discuss career interests or assist in college preparatory efforts.

I'm a recent Yale grad living in Washington, D.C., where I work for the Washington Nationals. I'm a lifelong sports fanatic and love helping out those seeking to meet their academic goals!

...from Boston University as well as a B.S. in Physics from Boston College. I also am certified to teach in both Massachusetts and Maryland. I am committed to providing high quality lessons that are also fun and engaging! Meeting the student where they are and building from that foundation is the key to deeper understanding. By using my students' own funds of knowledge, interests, and ideas, we will collaboratively learn physics in a tailored way...

...Science in Physics from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in May 2011. I was a Teaching Assistant of a Physics course for two years while I was there. I basically helped teach the class by making sure the students understood what the professor was saying during the lectures. I believe that stripping down a problem to it's simplest explanation and then building from there is the best way to learn something completely.

...at Georgetown University's McDonough School of Business studying Finance and Business Analytics with a double minor in Biotechnology and Economics. Next year, I will be at the University of Michigan pursuing a Master's degree in Financial Engineering. I am fortunate to have a wide range of experience in teaching quantitative subjects (pre-algebra, algebra I/II, pre-calculus, calculus I/II/III, statistics, and economics), along with SAT & GMAT test prep experience. Additionally, I serve as a senior teaching...

...a software developer. I was a tutor at Howard Community college for a year and a half, where I taught everything from algebra to calculus 1. Trust me when I say I understand that math can be very confusing and frustrating, I have been there. Sometimes you just need a little help here and there. Other times you need to go back and review the basics. I am here to help with all of the...

...a 4.0 GPA in my program. I love learning and sharing that passion with others. I have been fortunate to be a well-rounded student, and I attribute that to my parents who gave me many opportunities to challenge myself. Some of my favorite subjects include Algebra, Geometry, Spanish, English, Reading, Writing, Chemistry, Biology, Psychology, and Information Technology. I am also experienced in test prep including SAT, ACT, NCLEX, TEAS, and many more. My students have...
