Award-Winning Physics Tutors in Portsmouth, VA

I went to West Point as a Physics and Nuclear Engineering double major, and have always loved to teach and help others to enjoy learning math and science. I've spent time helping students ranging from 6th grade to seniors in college. I immensely enjoy what I do, and that passion is what fuels my tutoring style.... The most important step towards understanding problems and mastering subjects is learning the underlying concepts before attempting to jump through...

...care about. Second, getting to know the student- everyone has unique talents, tendencies, and goals. There is an area of overlap between each school subject (even standardized tests, which 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...

I'm a freshman at the College of William and Mary studying finance and computer science. I've been tutoring since high school, and love how it allows me see familiar subjects from a different perspective. In my free time, I like to play rugby, spend time with my friends, and do Model UN. I can tutor most subjects that I've taken before, but especially love teaching high school math.

...graduate school in physics. I also founded and coached the FRC Robotics Team (#7315 Giga Kinghts!!) at the school I taught at. Throughtout that time I tutored 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 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 Neuroscience major but tutor in many different subjects. Science is where my heart is at though :) Lets get that A+!

I am a former Nuclear Operator for the US Navy. Throughout my time in the Navy, I trained many sailors, learning varied educational techniques along the way. I look forward to using them to help other reach their goals.

...am very interested in neuroscience. I was a peer tutor in chemistry and biology at my undergrad for 2 years, tutored in graduate school, and am a professor at Tidewater Community College, so I am an experienced teacher and tutor. I love to help people understand the subjects that I am so passionate about. I understand that science isn't everyone's strength, and I like to place it in context of the interests of my students....

...who cared more for the understanding and success of their students than for simply getting through the curriculum and exams. I have worked to emulate that approach in my 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...
