Aidan
Certified College Physics Tutor
Aidan
BA University of Notre Dame
6+ Years Tutoring

Premed coursework and a computing degree at Notre Dame meant Aidan sat through the full sequence of calculus-based physics — mechanics, E&M, waves — while simultaneously learning to think algorithmically about complex problems. That combination is particularly useful when students hit the wall where physics stops being plug-and-chug and starts requiring multi-step reasoning, like connecting free-body diagrams to energy methods or translating a word problem into the right integral. His 35 ACT speaks to the quantitative fluency he brings to those tougher setups.

Satvik
Current Undergrad Student, Aerospace Engineering Georgia Institute of Technology-Main Campus
7+ Years Tutoring

Aerospace engineering at Georgia Tech means Satvik uses college-level physics daily — from Newtonian mechanics and rotational dynamics to electromagnetism and wave optics. He earned an 800 on the SAT Physics Subject Test and served as an undergraduate teaching assistant, running recitation sections and office hours for 30+ students at a time. That combination of deep content knowledge and real teaching reps makes him especially effective at breaking down intimidating problem sets.

Jessica
MS Tufts University • BA Indiana University
1+ Years Tutoring

Preparing for medical school while holding a master's in Biomedical Sciences means Jessica regularly thinks about physics in biological contexts — pressure gradients driving blood flow, lens optics in the eye, electrical potentials across cell membranes — which gives her a concrete way to teach concepts that often feel purely abstract in a college physics course. She walks students through the problem-setup phase carefully, connecting the physical scenario to the right principle before any math starts. Rated 5.0 by students.

Ellen
BA Indiana University-Bloomington
1+ Years Tutoring

I am a professional tutor with years of experience. I have helped students jump letter grades and improve as much as 8 composite points on the ACT and 200 points on the SAT. I have over 6 years and 1000 hours of test prep experience and over 6 years of experience tutoring math up to and including calculus, various science subjects, English, and Spanish. I like to meet all the tutoring needs of a student. This includes covering not only the academic subjects (including math, science, and language) and test prep (ACT and SAT) but also assisting with study skills and organization. I also have experience in working with students with various learning disabilities, including ADD/ADHD. I have helped students in all levels of courses, including honors and AP levels.

Rachel
BA Indiana University-Purdue University-Indianapolis
9+ Years Tutoring

A health psychology background might not scream physics, but Rachel's broad science coursework and strong quantitative instincts — reflected in her 1480 SAT — mean she can walk students through the foundational mechanics and energy concepts that dominate introductory college physics. She's particularly good at teaching students how to slow down and diagram a problem before jumping to equations, a habit her psychology training in systematic analysis reinforced.

Darren
BA Indiana University-Purdue University-Indianapolis
1+ Years Tutoring

Triple-majoring in computer science, mathematics, and economics means Darren is simultaneously taking the calculus, linear algebra, and statistical modeling courses that college physics leans on — so he's solving the same kinds of differential equations and vector problems his students are, just in parallel contexts. He's particularly strong at translating the mathematical machinery behind topics like projectile motion or wave equations into step-by-step reasoning that makes the physics intuitive, not just computational.

Caroline
MS Massachusetts Institute of Technology • Undergraduate degree Washington University in St. Louis
14+ Years Tutoring

Working at an ExxonMobil refinery before MIT Sloan meant Caroline spent years applying thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and force analysis to real industrial systems — the same physics that fills college problem sets, except with actual consequences for getting the math wrong. Her mechanical engineering M.S. from WashU (magna cum laude) gave her deep fluency with calculus-based derivations, so she can walk through everything from torque problems to heat transfer without skipping the steps that textbooks gloss over. Rated 5.0 by students.

Christine
BA Johns Hopkins University
8+ Years Tutoring

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.

Dennis
MS Vanderbilt University • BA Grinnell College
1+ Years Tutoring

Graduate work in Chemical and Physical Biology at Vanderbilt meant Dennis spent years applying thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, and electromagnetism to biological systems — the same core physics concepts that fill college problem sets, just in a research context where getting the physics wrong meant failed experiments. He breaks down force, energy, and field problems by connecting them to the physical intuition behind the math, which is especially useful for pre-med and life science students navigating calculus-based physics for the first time. Holds a 5.0 rating.

Andrew
PhD Boston University • BA Massachusetts Institute of Technology
1+ Years Tutoring

A molecular biology background means Andrew regularly encountered physics in disguise — diffusion rates, membrane potentials, fluid dynamics in biological systems — before his doctoral work added another layer of analytical rigor. He breaks down mechanics and thermodynamics problems by connecting them to tangible phenomena, which makes the abstract math feel less like symbol-pushing. Rated 4.8 by students.

Zhengdong
BA University of Science and Technology of China • Doctor of Philosophy Princeton University
5+ Years Tutoring

Two physics degrees — a B.S. and a PhD — mean Zhengdong has worked through every layer of the college physics sequence, from introductory Newtonian mechanics all the way to quantum theory and advanced electrodynamics. He's particularly effective at teaching students to translate a physical scenario into the right mathematical framework, whether that's setting up free-body diagrams in mechanics or applying Gauss's law to symmetric charge distributions. Rated 4.8 by students.

Richard
BA Harvard University
1+ Years Tutoring

College-level physics ramps up quickly, especially once calculus-based mechanics and electromagnetism enter the picture. Richard's time as a course assistant in Harvard's math department gave him deep comfort with the calculus underpinning topics like electric flux integrals and differential equations of motion. He teaches the physics and the math simultaneously, so students aren't left wondering where a derivation came from.
