Kinematics and free-body diagrams trip up most physics students not because the math is hard, but because translating a word problem into the right equation feels like guesswork. Kate teaches a systematic approach — identify forces, pick a coordinate system, write Newton's second law — that turns va...

Having taught calculus and physics at Notre Dame and served as a student assistant for mechanics courses, Jeffrey knows exactly where high school students stumble — usually at the jump from plugging numbers into formulas to reasoning through multi-step scenarios involving rotational motion or collis...

Kinematics equations, free-body diagrams, and energy conservation problems all share something in common: they reward careful setup more than raw calculation. Samuel approaches high school physics by teaching students to diagram and define variables before touching any formulas, a habit from his app...

Real-world application problems are where Charles thrives — as a mechanical engineering student at Yale, he's constantly translating textbook physics into physical systems, whether it's analyzing forces on a sailboat hull or modeling projectile trajectories. That engineering mindset means he teaches...

The jump from conceptual science to equation-heavy physics catches many high schoolers off guard. Benjamin eases that transition by teaching students to read a problem, identify which principles apply — Newton's laws, conservation of momentum, circuit analysis — and map out a solution path before to...

Chemical engineering at Cornell meant Rahul spent years solving physics problems with real stakes — fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and force balances weren't abstract exercises but the core tools for designing actual systems. That engineering mindset carries over directly when he teaches high schoo...

Kinematics, Newton's laws, and energy conservation can feel like an avalanche of equations if nobody explains the logic connecting them. Justin approaches high school physics by teaching students to draw the situation, identify what's conserved or balanced, and then pick the right equation — a probl...

Kinematics equations and free-body diagrams often feel abstract until someone shows you the logic underneath them. Lauren approaches physics problems by breaking them into smaller reasoning steps — identifying what's conserved, what forces are acting, and which equation actually fits — rather than p...

Physics problems reward students who can translate a word problem into a free-body diagram or energy equation before touching a calculator. James teaches that translation step explicitly, walking through kinematics, Newton's laws, and conservation principles with an emphasis on setting up the proble...

Andrew's PhD in Biomedical Engineering means he doesn't just teach physics formulas — he knows where Newton's laws, kinematics, and energy conservation actually lead in real research. He breaks down free-body diagrams and projectile motion problems by connecting the math to physical intuition, so eq...
