Award-Winning Physics Tutors serving Norfolk, VA

...long lasting tutoring experiences while attending ODU school in the following subjects: general chemistry, organic chemistry, biology, microbiology, etc. I was an undergraduate teaching assistant for organic chemistry, biochemistry, and microbiology. I have maintained a 3.9 GPA throughout my B.S degree. I have been working with so many of these subjects that I know how to make potential students master the subjects. I will work closely with you to help you reach your goals.

...SAT Math and Physics off-and-on on the side. My tutoring style changes based on your needs. If you just need a tutor to help you figure out some tricky problems on homework, I can help. Or, maybe you are completely lost and need to start from the basics. I can provide 1-on-1 lessons to get you back on track. Obviously, physics is my passion and the subject I am most interested in, but I also...

...own teaching, be it one-on-one tutoring, or running test review sessions in my residence hall. I try to model teaching as an open dialogue rather than a lecture, with many problems done by the student and the teacher as a team rather focusing simple examples or demonstrations. I think that practice is the key to mastery, and try to spend time practicing with the student as much as possible to achieve that.

I graduated from Virginia Tech with a Bachelor of Science in Engineering Science and Mechanics and Minor in Mathematics. I also have a Minor in Leadership Studies which helps me better reach students with not just content but appealing teaching methods. I have been tutoring math, physics, and engineering subjects for years and am I'm ready to help students reach their full potential.

I am a junior Physics major attending Norfolk State University. My goal is to help fellow students grasp a thorough understanding of the fundamentals of Mathematics and Science as well as English and History. I work hard to bring a fun and creative perspective to learning so that information is retained and test scores are improved.

Francis Bacon once wrote, "Knowledge is Power". I firmly believe that statement. My goal is to empower you to become as powerful as you can be through the knowledge that you gain (with my assistance!).

...also re-teach concepts that are usually forgotten from lower levels of math that are necessary to understand current concepts. I prefer to teach students concepts in an intuitive way versus a memorization way. In the long run, understanding mathematical concepts on an intuitive level will be remembered longer and will help with higher level math down the road. I push my students to the level of accomplishment I believe they are currently capable of achieving....

My goal is to prepare students for courses in various ways to make them as successful as possible. I hope to teach students proper habits and a routine that would make them successful in future classes.

I love explaining things to people - and I've been doing it for about 25 years. I want you to finish a session feeling like: "Wow, that guy really helped me! (plus - what a sense of humor!)

...ensure you are confident in completing/answering the problems by yourself. Because when you believe in yourself you will succeed and are able to do anything. I will breakdown your lesson plans and cater it to you so you can enjoy it. What's the point of learning if you cannot enjoy it. I will answer all your questions and make sure you understand it; so please, do not hesitate to reach out to me.... Practice, practice, practice,...

...my own with the hope of finding and committing to a research topic I would want to go back to school for. Meanwhile, I've tutored family and friends in geometry, trigonometry, precalculus, and statics. I am most passionate about Physics, Neuroscience, and Mathematics. Providing a thorough, intellectually honest, and enjoyable tutoring experience is something I take very seriously and will be priorities of mine during each tutoring session. In my spare time, I enjoy reading...

...about chemistry. Many students find chemistry difficult but after guidance to approach problems and learning how chemistry really works my students master the subject and feel a real sense of achievement. Tutoring sessions must incorporate different learning styles and a variety of teaching strategies to meet students' unique needs, as well as make the content relevant to their lives. It is my desire to create an atmosphere where students can meet their full potential, become...

I am a professional chemist. I have been researching materials chemistry for 4 years with specific interest in plastics. I have taught chemistry for two 2 years and performed well enough to be assigned the more difficult, upper-level labs.

I am currently an Electrical Engineering Student at Old Dominion University. I have passion about teaching and tutoring. I have 4 years of tutoring experience in the following areas: Math Algebra 2 Algebra 3&4 Geometry Trigonometry Science Chemistry Physics SAT Subject Test in Physics SAT Subject Tests Test Prep Teaching English and Arabic including Writing, Reading and Oral.

...stress as possible by implementing the learning strategies recognized in literature (some books include 'Make It Stick', 'Ultralearning', & 'Peak'). The truth is that we all can learn more effectively and with fewer issues by using these particular techniques. What I enjoy most when teaching is to see a student use newfound abilities to be able to complete a problem they work on. My intent is to help students achieve their learning goals while simultaneously...

...require critical thinking!) and a student's goals, and it's usually bigger than it first appears. A star athlete doesn't just need to pass English to graduate; she needs to be able to write a well organized and error-free letter. In time, I'd hope to become the kind of tutor a student wants to impress, and whose tips and tag lines come to mind at unexpected moments even after the student is off to new adventures.

...through reading programs, athlete tutoring , after school tutoring, Girl Scouts mentoring and the YMCA. I have experience leading lesson plans and adapting them to a specific audience as well as working with children and adults. During my after school tutoring and the YMCA I assessed the type of learner the student was and by having this information I could adapt the lesson specific to them. I am a visual learner and enjoy making diagrams,...

...where I assisted in his research on particle aggregation in the water column. After graduating, I commissioned as a Surface Warfare Officer where I currently manage a division of approximately 20 sailors. I love working with students of any age and teaching is something that I feel comes naturally to me. My passion for learning and for leadership has brought me to where I am today as an officer and has been fostered and developed...

I heard someone say that everyone starts out liking math. But they meet that one math teacher or class or even a problem that intimidates them, possibly embarrasses them. And they build a wall and find it hard to continue liking math. I want to show them an easier way to understand the concepts; I want people to like math.

...them understand the material as well as develop the processes necessary to solve a problem. I get the frustrations of school work, having gone/currently going through it. And I also get where a lot of gaps in learning may be coming from, having recently taken the same classes I offer tutoring assistance for. My goal is to make the subject matter more intutitive for students and help them build inner confidence regarding their work.
