Earning a BS in physics from Yale gave Anthony deep comfort with the subject's core challenge: translating a physical scenario into a mathematical model and then interpreting the result. He breaks down force diagrams, energy conservation, and wave behavior by tying each concept back to the underlying math rather than treating equations as formulas to memorize.

Applied mathematics and physics share the same language, and Kenneth speaks it fluently. He walks students through everything from free-body diagrams in mechanics to circuit analysis in electromagnetism, emphasizing how to extract the right equation from a problem statement and verify that the units and limiting cases make sense.

As a Classics and biology double major at Yale, Maddie brings a Socratic instinct to physics — she asks targeted questions at each step of a kinematics or force problem until students realize they can reason through the solution themselves. She also teaches calculus and SAT prep, so when the math in a multi-step energy or momentum problem gets tangled, she can untangle both the physics and the algebra on the spot.

Economics at Yale might not scream physics, but Max's 1580 SAT score signals the kind of quantitative reasoning that makes kinematics and energy problems click — and he teaches both physics and calculus, so the math never becomes the bottleneck. He zeroes in on helping students see which principles govern a scenario before any numbers get plugged in, turning chaotic multi-step problems into structured solutions. Rated 5.0 by students.

Free-body diagrams, Newton's laws, energy conservation, projectile motion — physics is a subject where one misdrawn vector can derail an entire solution. Yossi's mechanical engineering training at Yale means he's solved thousands of these problems under pressure, and he teaches students to set up each problem systematically before touching a single equation.

Trained in both physics and mathematics at the undergraduate and graduate level, James brings rare fluency to the interplay between physical intuition and mathematical rigor. He digs into mechanics, electromagnetism, and wave phenomena by first building the conceptual picture, then showing how the equations encode that picture precisely. Students walk away understanding not just how to solve a problem but why the solution makes physical sense.

Mathematical Physics at UConn means Alice doesn't treat mechanics, electromagnetism, and thermodynamics as separate chapters — she sees the mathematical threads running through all of them, which makes her especially effective at showing students why the same differential equation keeps reappearing in seemingly unrelated topics. Her 34 ACT and 5.0 rating back up what her instructional assistant work in college demonstrated: she can break a complex force or energy scenario down to its core principle and rebuild it step by step until the solution feels inevitable.

Sabine approaches physics the way a scientist actually uses it: start with the physical situation, sketch a diagram, identify the forces or energy transfers, and only then reach for equations. Her chemistry background gives her an unusual strength in topics where physics and chemistry overlap, like electrostatics, wave behavior, and gas laws. Students consistently rate her 5.0.

I am a graduate of the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). I received my Bachelor of Arts in Asian American Studies with a pre-med track. I am currently a grad student at the Yale School of Public Health.

I am a freshman at Yale University, hailing originally from Seattle in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. I believe that education is one of the most fundamental aspects of a society's wellbeing, and that it is the duty of those of us who have been graced with the advantages of a good education to give back in some way; one of my motivations for tutoring is to do my part in that way.

I am a current undergraduate student at Cornell University studying Electrical and Computer Engineering. I have a strong science and math background having taken many courses in Physics, Computer Programming, and various mathematics subjects ranging from Geometry, to Multivariable Calculus, to Differential Equations. I am also very passionate about English, Literature, Russian Studies, Spanish Language, and History. I believe that the key to success is having a well rounded education, so when I am not programming microcontrollers, one can either find me watching Russian news channels to polish up my vocabulary, reading textbooks on the history of the Middle East, or simply immersing myself in a Jane Austen novel. In my free time I also enjoy training for CrossFit, playing the viola, and traveling.

Hello, my name is Yosef and I would be happy to serve as a math tutor. I place strong emphasis on a good balance between knowledge of mathematical content and proficiency in problem-solving, reasoning, and conveying mathematical ideas in writing. There are times when a student needs to be informed of a solution, times when he or she also needs to hear the explanation of why the solution works, and times when he or she should be guided to finding the solution on his or her own. It is important for the tutor to recognize which approach is appropriate. Frequently, when students struggle, it is because they do not understand the notation or terminology in use. In such cases, it is important to reassure the student, reminding him or her that he or she is only struggling with understanding a single word, not the entire mathematical concept. As a rule, people perform better and are better motivated when they have self-confidence, not when the task ahead seems frighteningly daunting. It is also important to recognize that different students learn best through different means. As an example, some students are visual learners and can understand the material best through pictures and gestures. Other students learn best through hearing the procedures vocalized, while still others learn best through writing out the steps of the solution procedure. I know to adapt my teaching style to the individual student. with these considerations in mind, I promise to provide the best assistance that I can, taking your individual needs into consideration.

I am only as good as the knowledge I can pass on. We work best only when we are being challenged by the very same people we are trying to teach. In doing so, as tutors , we are constantly reminded on the need to stay current, to continuously strive to add more to our arsenal of information and to simultaneously be prepared to reinvent oneself in a very short period of time. It is my belief that that is what it takes to be a competent tutor. It is also my belief that I come through on the very same standards I set others and that I am prepared to work hard, not for myself but for you.

I believe every person has potential, which must be drawn out of them. With over 4 years of leading workshops, being a Teaching Assistant and creating curriculum, and nearly two years of private tutoring, I know how to help students and people of all ages easily understand concepts in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics. Having graduated from Vanderbilt University with a Bachelors degree in Engineering Science, I know how to move from not understanding a subject to understanding it well. The subjects I tutor include: - Math (Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, Pre-Calculus**, Calculus 1**, Calculus 2** and Statistics**) - Computer Science (AP CSP / AP Comp SciA, Python, ReactJS/JavaScript, HTML/CSS, Powershell/Bash Scripting) - Science (Physics**) ** - tutor subject at high school/AP/college level My teaching style includes completely modeling a problem on the board. Then, I would guide a student through solving a problem before having them solve it independently.

Mechanical engineering grad school is essentially applied physics on repeat — Aaron solves statics, dynamics, thermodynamics, and fluid mechanics problems daily, so the concepts in introductory and AP-level courses are second nature rather than something he has to dust off. He's especially sharp at breaking down free-body diagrams and energy conservation setups, connecting the physical picture to the math so students see why an equation applies instead of guessing which one to use. Rated 5.0 by students.

Kinematics equations and free-body diagrams intimidate a lot of students, but the underlying logic is surprisingly systematic once someone shows you how to set up each problem. Annabel's science background means she can unpack both the math and the physical intuition behind Newton's laws, energy conservation, and wave behavior without skipping the steps that textbooks gloss over.

Most physics struggles come down to translating a word problem into the right free-body diagram or energy equation. Viraj teaches that translation step explicitly, walking through how to identify forces, choose coordinate systems, and apply Newton's laws before any numbers enter the picture. His science-heavy Cornell curriculum keeps these concepts sharp across mechanics, waves, and electricity.

Eric approaches physics the way his Duke engineering program taught him: start with a free-body diagram, identify what's conserved, and let the math follow from the concept. Whether it's projectile motion, circuits, or rotational dynamics, he walks through each problem type until the setup becomes second nature.

A biomedical engineering degree from VCU means Waleed didn't just study physics — he applied Newtonian mechanics, wave behavior, and electromagnetism to design problems in materials science and medical devices. He unpacks force diagrams, energy conservation, and kinematics by tying each concept back to something a student can picture happening in the physical world. Rated 5.0 by students.

Siva's engineering training means he's spent years translating physical situations — projectile motion, circuit analysis, wave behavior — into mathematical models and back again. That translation skill is exactly what physics students need when a free-body diagram or energy conservation problem refuses to click. He earned a 1560 SAT and 35 ACT, so standardized problem formats are second nature too.

Medical school at the Medical College of Wisconsin demands a command of mechanics, fluid dynamics, and thermodynamics that goes well beyond intro-level physics — Abrahim applies those principles daily in contexts like blood pressure dynamics and respiratory mechanics. His biology degree from UCLA (cum laude) and a 34 ACT underscore the quantitative chops he brings to breaking down force diagrams, energy conservation setups, and multi-step kinematics problems. Rated 5.0 by students.

Benjamin's finance and economics training at Notre Dame runs on the same quantitative backbone that physics demands — modeling systems, isolating variables, and reasoning through multi-step problems where one misstep cascades. He brings a toolkit of computation shortcuts and pattern-recognition tricks to kinematics and energy problems that make the math faster and less error-prone. Holds a 5.0 rating from students.

The hunt for the right equation is half the battle in physics — figuring out whether a problem calls for Newton's second law or conservation of energy before any numbers hit the page. Michael's CS degree from UCLA means he thinks algorithmically, breaking multi-step mechanics and kinematics problems into a clear sequence of decisions rather than a tangle of formulas. That structured approach, paired with a 1560 SAT, keeps the math sharp enough that the physics stays front and center.

Derek earned a 790 on the SAT Physics Subject Test and scored 5s on both AP Physics 1 and AP Physics C: Mechanics, covering everything from kinematics and energy conservation to rotational dynamics. He teaches physics by anchoring each problem in a free-body diagram or energy diagram first, so students learn to set up solutions systematically before touching equations.

Holding degrees in both mechanical and electrical engineering, Steve has solved the full spectrum of physics problems professionally — from statics and dynamics in mechanical systems to electromagnetism in circuit design. That dual perspective is especially useful when students hit the transition from mechanics to E&M, since he can show how the same problem-solving structure carries across both halves of a physics course. Rated 4.9 by students.

A Princeton-trained mechanical and aerospace engineer, Fred spent years solving physics problems that mattered — calculating drag forces on aircraft, modeling orbital mechanics, analyzing stress distributions in structural components. That depth lets him teach everything from Newtonian mechanics to electromagnetism with real intuition about what the equations describe physically. He unpacks the free-body diagrams, energy conservation setups, and vector decompositions that students struggle with most.
