Award-Winning Physics Tutors serving Brockton, MA

...know and what we think we do not know. After High school, I completed the International Baccalaureate diploma in Fife, Scotland. My dissertation was in theoretical genetics. It was also fun to be in a Northern town with 3 beaches and more double rainbows than I have seen anywhere since! My undergraduate degree was in England at a student village about 30 minutes West of London. It boasted the best student nights in the UK,...

...and graduated Magna Cum Laude with my M.S. in Mechanical Engineering. After college, I moved to Houston, Texas to work for ExxonMobil at a refinery before returning to school for my MBA. I have always enjoyed tutoring, and tutored throughout high school and college. As a mechanical engineering major, I have a very strong background in math and sciences. I have experience tutoring all levels of math, from middle school to college level, SAT prep,...

Hello! My name is Claire. I am from Middletown, New Jersey, and I recently graduated from Saint John Vianney High School. I am currently a freshman at Northeastern University in Boston, where I am studying Mechanical Engineering. I have always had a passion for math and science, so I am excited to share that by assisting other students!

...towards my Masters in physics at Brown University. While I was in college, I worked as a teacher's assistant in various math and physics classes, including Calculus I, Calculus II, and the introductory physics sequence. While tutoring, I feel it's important that students are comfortable with their tutor, so I do my best to foster a friendly and relaxed environment. In my free time, I like to grab coffee with my friends and crack open...

I love to teach math, science and computer programming (specializing in C++). When I'm not teaching, I'm out kiteboarding.

At the core, I love learning and find it fun. In teaching, I try to convey that sense of fun to my students. I use a variety of techniques depending on my student's learning style, but I always focus on the fun of learning new things.... In a first session with a student, I would introduce the basic concepts and core questions of the subject, and determine my student's learning style in order to plan future...

...I had not decided to become a physician, I would have strongly considered becoming a teacher. Teaching is one of the most enjoyable activities I do, and I have taught in some capacity every year for the past ten years. I have taught subjects ranging from English to algebra, from physics to dance, and have taught students ranging in age from toddlers to adults. I have also provided advice on application essays, resumes, and interview...

...as well as for my local schools. My favorite subject to tutor is math because the answers are straight forward and it is satisfying for me to achieve the correct answer. I believe in creating a comfortable and relaxed environment for all students. My mentality is to make the subject matter seem easier and less anxiety inducing than when the material is introduced. Outside of academia, I work at a Boston area hospital per diem....

...in Chemical Engineering from the University of Massachusetts. During my studies, I spent a year tutoring student-athletes in Chemistry, Physics, Math and Engineering. Earlier in my schooling, I spent two years as a camp counselor and a year regularly babysitting, so mentoring has always been a part of my life. I also have experience as a part of the Best Buddies organization during high school, and so I have some experience with special needs students...

...understand the world around me in new and exciting ways- so organic chemistry and physics were among my favorite courses. In sociology I was very focused on research, specifically related to health inequities. I tutor in physics, chemistry, biology, and social sciences and am excited to work with you! Helping peers and receiving help from peers for studying difficult content was such an integral part of my college experience- and sometimes the most fun part-...

...concentrations while at Simmons. I studied abroad in Japan, after several years of studying Japanese language and history. I earned a BS in Biostatistics, and tutored financial accounting as well as microeconomics. From 9-5 I am buried in excel sheets and data queries as a business analyst, working with database systems. I enjoy helping students pass their least favorite courses, and discover that statistics and financial mathematics aren't always as scary as they might seem.

...numerous students in the past, specifically in college-level Biology and Genetics; however, I consider myself to be a well-rounded student and teacher. In addition to Biology, I've helped students master reading, writing, and standardized test preparation skills. I love working collaboratively, and I'm passionate about helping people reach their goals in a way that fits their personalized learning style. I believe solidifying knowledge in a way that complements each student is the key to academic...

...main goal for tutoring students is for them to be able to understand the content that they are struggling with or need more practice in so that they can be successful on exams and in whatever else they may need the knowledge for. Over the course of high school and my freshman year at college, I had the privilege to be able to tutor students and friends in subjects mainly including, but not limited to,...

Teaching is my passion. When I am not tutoring for Varsity Tutors, I work in medical research. I love the idea of helping patients feel better and especially kids. If I had to say something about my outlook, it is that I am thankful for what I do, privileged to be part of so many lives, and hopeful that my skills will make a difference.

...and being excited to learn. Being able to provide students with the tools for academic success is something I deeply love because I believe success in the classroom spills over to better outcomes in the real world like increased confidence and self-esteem. I have worked with students of all ages from elementary school to college students in a variety of subjects including standardized test prep like the ACT/SAT/PSAT, college level chemistry, organic chemistry, biochemistry, and...

...lot of time huddled around math and science textbooks, explaining concepts and helping my brother and sister see problems the way I do. I believe strongly that the student gains nothing from the tutor who does their work for them, so I go out of my way to make sure each student understands that grasping the concepts is much more important than solving the individual problems. Besides working with my siblings, I also have experience...

...have a passion for helping students overcome initial mental hurdles and progress. This requires having some fun with the material as a motive for practice, and with practice comes confidence. At Carleton College, where I received a B.A in Mathematics, I tutored students in Math, led introductory Spanish classes as a TA, and taught Rock Climbing classes as a hobby. Now, back in my hometown of Boston, I tutor students in the Sciences, Math, Computer...

...mental health specialist at a Children's Hospital. I am extremely passionate about working with kids and helping others achieve their highest potential. I am where I am today because of the people who helped me and saw potential in me. I hope to be that same positive influence for others. While I tutor a broad range of subjects I am most passionate about Algebra, Geometry, SAT math, and AP stats. My extensive experience in laboratory...

Hi! I teach college and grad-level math and physics. My quizzes and labs prepare students for SAT II, GRE, medical, and industry tests. I study problems from Kaplan's books and "Dummies' Guides". My students and I discuss conceptual lab design questions, some from magazines and news videos. We try computer simulations. I can help with any phase of your college/graduate application, especially research and recommendation letters.

...science. My approach centers on fostering a supportive learning environment where students can engage in meaningful discussions about STEM subjects. I believe that understanding the "why" behind concepts is crucial, which is why I prioritize explaining underlying principles rather than rote memorization. My passion for teaching stems from my own positive experiences as a student, and I strive to create a comfortable atmosphere that encourages curiosity and exploration. In addition to tutoring, I have led...
