Award-Winning Physics Tutors serving Greece, NY

My goal is to help every student reach their full potential in learning a subject. I have my Bachelors degree in Biology, and I'm pursuing a PhD in Brain and Cognitive Science. Providing the tools and skills to learn any subject is something I enjoy and strive to do!

...at The Pennsylvania State University. I have over 7 years of experience at the graduate and postdoctoral levels training and tutoring undergraduate students in biology, cell biology, neurobiology, and basic laboratory technique. I live in Portland, Oregon, and frequently engage in community outreach by teaching neuroscience classes at local middle schools. By day I am...

...Web application development including server side programming and databases Computer programming with Python and other languages Project management and frameworks Privacy I have nearly two decades as a practicing lawyer and law firm partner in New York State in all levels of state courts and the US Second Circuit. In the law, I can help...

...work with students one on one and also the ins and outs of how assignments are actually graded. I'm very personable and I really enjoy helping students to understand math, programming, and science. The "aha" moment feels great as a student (trust me, I'm well aware of this) and I believe seeing a student achieve...

...also a recent graduate of Washington University in St. Louis, where I majored in Cognitive Neuroscience while on the pre-med track. I am happy to help with any subject in math or science through the collegiate level, as well as college apps, test prep (ACT, SAT, or MCAT), and med school apps.

...genuine love for learning. The point of education is to teach students how to become critical thinkers so that they may apply their knowledge to solve real world problems. Learning should be exciting for students; it shouldn't feel like a chore. This passion and enjoyment of learning should be applied to every aspect of life...

...much as possible. Answering the question "When am I ever going to use this?!" hopefully in a way that makes sense. I got into engineering because I love working with my hands (woodworking, small electronics, fixing things, etc). For that reason, I love the practical applications of physics, math, etc. And I love to write,...

I graduated from the University at Buffalo with a B.S. in Chemistry. I believe that progress is achieved where work is applied, team-work can solve any challenge, and a smile holds more power than credited.

...to each students' needs. For example, I have always tried to frame questions in a different way so that the student can better understand the question. Some students need visual representations of numbers and systems to understand them, and others benefit more by understanding the concepts behind each formula. I prefer to tutor in math...

...textbook. I find that this technique works very well with math and physics, where understanding the theory is often the key to being able to see a problem and find the right path to a solution. I also try to apply this method to test preparation, so that students aren't just following a test-taking strategy...
