Michelle
BA Trinity University
1+ Years Tutoring

Understanding physics means learning to translate a word problem into a diagram, then into an equation — and that translation step is exactly where most students get stuck. Michelle breaks down that process explicitly, teaching students to identify forces, draw free-body diagrams, and choose the right kinematic or energy equation before touching a calculator. Her current graduate studies in physical therapy keep her fluent in biomechanics and applied physics concepts.

Emily
BA University of Pennsylvania
9+ Years Tutoring

Emily approaches physics problems the way her science training taught her: sketch the situation, identify the forces, then translate the diagram into math. That structured method is especially useful for kinematics and Newton's laws, where students often know the equations but struggle to set problems up correctly. Her background in neurobiology also means she's comfortable with the biophysics applications that make the subject feel more relevant.

Aidan
BA University of Notre Dame
6+ Years Tutoring

A pre-med and computing double major at Notre Dame, Aidan has worked through the full gauntlet of calculus-based physics — mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics — alongside organic chemistry and upper-level math, so he knows how to move between the physical intuition and the algebra without losing either thread. His 35 ACT reflects that quantitative sharpness, and he's especially effective at teaching students to recognize when a problem is really about conservation laws versus when it's a force-balance scenario, so the right approach clicks before pencil hits paper.

Phillip
BA Brown University
6+ Years Tutoring

Most physics struggles come down to one thing: not knowing how to start a problem. Phillip teaches a systematic approach — draw the diagram, identify the forces, pick the right coordinate system — that turns intimidating multi-step problems into a sequence of smaller, solvable ones. He's taken physics through the college level as part of his biomedical engineering degree at Brown and knows exactly where conceptual gaps tend to hide.

Akarsh
MS Yale University • BA Yale University
9+ Years Tutoring

Akarsh's cellular and molecular biology training — both bachelor's and master's — required grinding through the same mechanics, thermodynamics, and electromagnetism that physics students face, particularly in biophysics coursework where forces, pressure gradients, and energy transfer aren't optional. He tackles problem sets by first isolating which physical law is actually at work, then mapping the math onto it step by step, so students stop guessing at formulas and start reasoning through solutions.
