Award-Winning Physics Tutors in Stamford, CT

...students since high school. It is an aspect of my life that I find very rewarding. To be able to take someone with an attitude of the topic being too hard to being confident enough to approach any challenge. I love showing how a deeper understanding can translate to being able to adapt to any situation you encounter on the test. This approach served me well as both an undergraduate and graduate teaching assistant. This...

...in Duke University. Until I recently received my Ph.D., I continued to be involved in teaching activities as lecturing and tutoring college students for more than five years. I taught and lectured many different laboratory courses and lecture sessions such as Physics I: Mechanics, Physics II: Electricity and Magnetism, Mechanics Laboratory, Electricity and Magnetism Laboratory, Optics Laboratory, Modern Physics Laboratory and Quantum Physics. As of now, I have been teaching, formally and informally, for more...

...Mathematics and I have many years of experience in the education field. I have a B.S. in Physics, and I am working both towards a Masters of Mathematics and a Teaching Certification, which I plan to complete within a years time. I have tutored students from ages 12 to 60 in math (elementary through Algebra, Geometry, Calculus and Graduate Business Statistics), Physics, Biology, Social Studies, Reading, and even Philosophy. I have worked with children and...

...in their understanding. I am currently a STEM teacher teaching grades K-8, but have been employed previously as a Mathematics Teacher in both middle and high schools. I am an experienced Algebra and Geometry teacher, and I have good working knowledge of all subject areas in Mathematics. I have also been previously employed as a Mathematics tutor for college level Algebra and Trigonometry. I make a great tutor for two reasons, one, my problem solving...

...them to master a subject. I value the importance of practice when it comes to academics. The grades students receive are based on the practice time put in by the student, so it is necessary to put in the practice time until a concept is mastered. No question in any subject should be seen as impossible to tackle - with the proper learning tools and tips/tricks that I provide to my students, I'm confident they...

...have tutored students from third grade to graduate school. Formally, I have taught Anatomy to medical and dental graduate students, as well as earth and environmental science to undergraduates. I love teaching all things science - especially fields relating to the outdoors and natural history. In my teaching I aim to inspire students to learn more and care about the natural work, and to always ask why things are they way they are, and how...

...I've created. For those who don't love Biology as much as I do, studying processes such as mitosis may seem tedious, but it doesn't have to be. I make sure to relate microscopic phenomena, such as mitosis, with exciting macroscopic spectacles, such as liver regeneration. When I'm not creating medical scenarios for my students to solve, I spend my time playing soccer, dancing, and watching as many French movies as I can find.

...background in philosophy, religion, theology, and history. I find that my work with students is productive because I give students what I would want from an instructor; an effort that goes above and beyond with a focus on real comprehension. I want my instructors and teachers to meet me at my level and bring to theirs by communicating ideas effectively, and so I bring that same attitude to each session. In my spare time I...

...relaxed and conversational. I present different methods of thinking about or attacking a problem than what the student hears from his/her teacher or professor. Sometimes a different voice is all it takes. Ultimately, I try to promote deep comprehension of the material, as well as provide tips and tricks to increase test-taking speed. Having extra time to tackle the tough problems invariably produces better results. In my free time I enjoy running, coaching youth softball...

...at various levels. It takes a great deal of patience working one-on-one, or in a small group making sure everyone understands the material, however the reward of seeing a students expression when they're on the right track is more than I can express. To teach and help imprint something in someone's mind is a very rich experience. I know at Varsity Tutors I can stimulate minds and help people be the best they can be...
