Colton
Certified College Physics Tutor
Colton
BA University of Virginia-Main Campus
1+ Years Tutoring

Biomedical engineering at UVA means Colton spent four years where physics meets the human body — modeling forces on prosthetics, analyzing fluid flow through vessels, and applying circuit theory to bioelectrical systems. He also TA'd courses in cell biology and MATLAB, so he's comfortable walking students through both the conceptual reasoning and the computational side of calculus-based physics problems. Rated 4.7 by students.

Michelle
Certified College Physics Tutor
Michelle
BA Trinity University
1+ Years Tutoring

Studying physical therapy at UCD means Michelle regularly applies physics to the human body — analyzing force vectors in joint movement, understanding torque during gait, and calculating work done by muscle groups — which gives her a practical anchor for the mechanics topics that dominate introductory college physics. Her biology degree from Trinity and a 4.8 tutoring rating back up her emphasis on conceptual problem-solving: mapping out the physics of a scenario before plugging anything into an equation.

Jude
BA Colorado School of Mines
5+ Years Tutoring

Studying engineering physics at Colorado School of Mines means Jude is taking the same calculus-based physics courses his students are — mechanics, E&M, waves, thermo — and solving the same style of problems week after week. That proximity to the material keeps his instincts sharp on exactly where a problem setup falls apart, whether it's misidentifying the system in a free-body diagram or botching a line integral through a non-uniform field. He scored a 36 ACT and holds a 4.9 tutoring rating.

Cody
MS Naropa University • BA Colorado School of Mines
9+ Years Tutoring

Few tutors bring the depth of a dedicated Engineering Physics program to college-level physics. Cody tackles topics like Lagrangian mechanics, Maxwell's equations, and quantum fundamentals with the rigor of someone who studied them as core coursework at Colorado School of Mines. He also uses Mathematica to visualize complex systems, which is especially useful for students in calculus-based physics sequences.

Graham
BA University
6+ Years Tutoring

Studying astrophysics and chemistry at CU Boulder means Graham lives inside the calculus-based physics that makes college courses demanding — orbital mechanics, electromagnetic radiation, thermodynamic processes in stellar atmospheres — and carries a 4.0 GPA through it. He breaks problems down by identifying the governing principle first, whether that's a conservation law or a field equation, then walks through the math step by step so the physics stays visible. Rated 5.0 by students.

Evan
BA Colorado State University-Fort Collins
9+ Years Tutoring

Evan's physics degree means he didn't just pass college physics — he kept going, tackling thermodynamics, special relativity, and upper-division mechanics well beyond the introductory sequence. That depth lets him trace a tricky concept like rotational inertia or wave superposition back to the underlying principle instead of just drilling the formula. Rated 5.0 by students.

Aaron
BA The University of Texas at Dallas • Current Grad Student, Mechanical Engineering Duke University
10+ Years Tutoring

Between earning a mechanical engineering bachelor's and pursuing his master's, Aaron has taken calculus-based physics from every angle — statics, dynamics, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics — and now applies those principles daily in graduate-level research and coursework. He breaks down problems by teaching students to sketch the physical situation first, identify constraints, and only then select the right conservation law or force equation. Holds a 5.0 rating.

Derek
BA Harvard University
9+ Years Tutoring

Studying computer science and applied math at Harvard means Derek uses physics constantly — from electromagnetism in circuit design to mechanics in computational modeling. He tackles college-level topics like Lagrangian dynamics and wave equations by connecting the math to physical intuition, making dense derivations feel less abstract.

Zosia
BA Yale University
4+ Years Tutoring

A chemistry degree from Yale means Zosia spent years in courses where physics does the heavy lifting — thermodynamics driving reaction spontaneity, quantum mechanics explaining atomic structure, electrostatics governing molecular interactions — so she knows these concepts from the inside out. She's particularly effective at teaching students to translate word-heavy problem statements into clean free-body diagrams or energy bar charts before touching an equation. Rated 4.9 by students.

Ryan
BA Cornell University
6+ Years Tutoring

Studying civil engineering at Cornell means Ryan solves physics problems for a living — calculating load distributions, analyzing force vectors in structural systems, and applying fluid mechanics principles that come straight out of college physics coursework. He scored a 35 ACT, which speaks to the quantitative precision he brings when breaking down mechanics or electromagnetism problems step by step. Rated 4.7 by students.

Justin
BA Washington University in St. Louis • Doctor of Philosophy, Computational Mathematics University of Chicago
9+ Years Tutoring

Three years of tutoring introductory physics while completing dual bachelor's degrees in physics and mathematics gave Justin a detailed map of exactly where students lose the thread — the jump from one-dimensional kinematics to rotational analogs, the shift from intuitive force reasoning to formal energy methods. His PhD in Computational Mathematics at the University of Chicago deepened that foundation, adding fluency with the differential equations and vector calculus that make the leap from algebra-based to calculus-based physics so steep. Rated 5.0 by students.

Alex
BA Mcgill University
1+ Years Tutoring

A bio-organic chemistry degree means Alex spent semesters in calculus-based physics courses where thermodynamics, electromagnetism, and mechanics weren't electives — they were prerequisites for understanding molecular behavior. That chemistry-physics overlap gives him a knack for unpacking energy conservation and electric potential in ways that click for students who think in terms of atoms and reactions rather than pulleys and ramps.

Bryan
BA Duke University
8+ Years Tutoring

College-level physics ramps up fast, and the jump from textbook examples to exam problems can be brutal. Bryan earned his B.S. in Physics and tackles that gap by teaching problem-solving frameworks — symmetry arguments in electrostatics, constraint equations in multi-body dynamics — that transfer across chapters instead of requiring a new trick every week.

Phillip
BA Brown University
6+ Years Tutoring

Biomedical engineering at Brown means Phillip solves physics problems with real biological stakes — modeling fluid flow through vessels, analyzing stress on implant materials, calculating electrical signals in tissue. That daily overlap with mechanics, thermodynamics, and electromagnetism gives him a practical fluency that makes college physics problem sets feel less abstract and more like puzzles with actual answers. Rated 5.0 by students.

Agustin
Current Undergrad Student, Molecular Biology Princeton University
9+ Years Tutoring

Molecular biology might seem like a different world from physics, but Agustin's coursework lives in the overlap — diffusion equations, fluid dynamics in cellular transport, and the thermodynamics behind protein folding all demand real physics fluency. He pairs that life-sciences perspective with strong quantitative chops (1560 SAT) to break down mechanics and energy problems in ways that click for students who think more naturally in biological terms than abstract force diagrams.

Biomedical engineering at Johns Hopkins means Christine solves physics problems daily that most students only see in textbooks — fluid dynamics in blood flow, pressure gradients across membranes, mechanics of prosthetic joints — giving her a concrete, application-heavy lens for the material. She's particularly strong on the thermodynamics and mechanics portions of college physics, where her coursework overlaps most directly with standard problem sets. Holds a 5.0 rating.

He breaks physics problems into the same kind of step-by-step logical structure he'd use to debug code, which makes tangled multi-concept questions feel systematic rather than overwhelming.
