Award-Winning College Physics Tutors
serving Lafayette, LA

Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I have a Bachelors degree and two Masters degrees in Mathematics from the United States Naval Academy, the University of Pennsylvania, and the University of Georgia. All of my degrees were earned with at least a 3.9 GPA and I earned the honor of being named the top math major from my undergraduate institution when I graduated. I have also had the pleasure of teaching mathematics at two different colleges and started tutoring math and physics over 20 years ago. Please allow me to accompany you on the exciting journey of exploration into math and physics!

Statics, dynamics, circuits, electromagnetics — Steve didn't just take these courses, he took them twice over, earning degrees in both mechanical and electrical engineering before working as a practicing engineer. That dual perspective is especially useful in college physics, where a problem about induced EMF or stress in a beam benefits from someone who's designed real systems around those principles. Rated 4.9 by students.

Biomedical engineering at VCU meant Waleed spent years applying physics to biological systems — modeling forces on prosthetic joints, analyzing fluid flow through vessels, understanding the electromagnetic principles behind imaging equipment like MRI and ultrasound. That gives him a concrete hook for the mechanics, thermodynamics, and E&M topics that fill college physics problem sets, since he can ground abstract equations in systems students can actually picture. Holds a 5.0 rating.

Bidyut's biomedical engineering coursework at Johns Hopkins means he tackles college physics problems — from rotational dynamics to electromagnetic induction — with the applied perspective of someone who uses these principles in lab and design work daily. He connects abstract force diagrams and circuit analyses to real engineering scenarios so the physics actually clicks. Rated 5.0 by students.

Chemical engineering at Georgia Tech means Aimee's spent years solving problems that blend thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and energy balances — the same physics concepts that make college-level courses demanding, except she's applied them to reactor design and process optimization. Her biosystems engineering graduate work adds another layer, connecting classical mechanics and heat transfer to biological systems in ways that make abstract problem sets feel more concrete. Rated 4.9 by students.

Theater might not scream physics, but Amber's breadth across math and science tutoring — from calculus to chemistry to AP-level coursework — means she's comfortable with the quantitative reasoning that college physics demands, and her 5.0 rating confirms students agree. She's particularly effective at teaching the problem-setup habits that separate students who flounder from those who don't: sketching free-body diagrams, identifying conservation laws, and translating word problems into equations before plugging in numbers. Her ACT 35 reflects the kind of cross-disciplinary sharpness that keeps pace with fast-moving, concept-dense courses.

A dual BS in physics and math from Yale means Anthony didn't just take college physics — he took the honors sequence and then kept going through differential equations, multivariable calculus, and upper-division mechanics. His PhD work in economics at Yale still draws on that training daily, since building economic models requires the same setup-and-solve discipline as a multi-step Newton's law problem. Rated 5.0 by students.

Biomedical engineering at Yale means Ellie applies physics daily — from fluid dynamics in circulatory models to electromagnetic principles in medical imaging. She breaks down topics like torque, wave optics, and circuit analysis by connecting them to real systems she encounters in her coursework and research. Rated 5.0 by students.

Neuroscience gave Julie a deep working knowledge of the physics that governs biological systems — membrane capacitance, electrical potentials across ion channels, fluid dynamics in neural vasculature — so she brings a concrete, applied lens to college physics topics that other tutors treat purely abstractly. Her strong quantitative background (1480 SAT, dual B.S. in Neuroscience) means she's comfortable walking through the calculus-based derivations in mechanics and E&M without losing sight of what the physics actually describes. Rated 5.0 by students.

Studying applied physics at Cornell means Ritesh isn't just teaching college physics concepts — he's actively using them in coursework and research. He digs into the areas that trip up most introductory students, like applying Newton's laws to rotational systems, working through Gauss's law problems, or connecting energy conservation to real circuits. His 4.6 rating speaks to his ability to make those connections click.

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.

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.

Ava's strength in college physics isn't a deep engineering background — it's her ability to teach students how to actually study the material. She breaks down problem-solving into structured steps, emphasizing how to read a force diagram or energy scenario before jumping to equations, and builds note-taking systems tailored to physics courses where lecture moves fast and notation piles up quickly.
