Award-Winning Physics Tutors
serving Shreveport, 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!

Cornell's chemical engineering program put Rahul through four years of mechanics, fluid dynamics, and thermodynamics problems that demand real physical intuition — not just plugging into formulas. He pushes students to understand why a conservation law applies before setting up the math, building the kind of conceptual reasoning that makes multi-step problems feel manageable rather than chaotic. Rated 4.9 by students.

Jackie took AP Physics C — the calculus-based version — and scored a 5 on the exam, which means she's comfortable with everything from Newtonian mechanics to electromagnetic induction. She unpacks free-body diagrams and energy conservation problems by tying the math to real physical situations students can visualize. That combination of calculus fluency and physical intuition makes her especially effective for students preparing for AP or college-level physics.

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.

Studying mechanical engineering at Harvard means Christopher doesn't just remember physics — he's actively building on it every semester, from Newtonian mechanics and thermodynamics to electromagnetism and wave behavior. He breaks down complex problems by teaching students to draw clean free-body diagrams, identify which conservation law applies, and translate word problems into solvable equations. That systematic approach turns intimidating multi-step problems into manageable sequences.

From Newton's laws to wave behavior to electric fields, physics is ultimately about translating real situations into mathematical models. Aimee's engineering training at Georgia Tech means she's spent years doing exactly that — and she teaches students to sketch free-body diagrams and set up equations with the same systematic approach she uses in her own work.

Understanding physics means learning to translate a word problem into a free-body diagram, then into equations, then into an answer that makes physical sense. Pranav teaches that full translation process — whether the topic is kinematics, energy conservation, or electromagnetism — drawing on his Biomedical Engineering studies at Johns Hopkins. He's especially good at identifying the exact step where a student's reasoning breaks down and addressing it on the spot.

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.

JF's dual training in mathematics and computer science at Stanford means the calculus and vector algebra that bog down most physics students are second nature — freeing up mental bandwidth to actually think about what's happening physically in a problem. He tackles everything from AP Physics 1 mechanics to AP Physics 2 electromagnetism, and he's particularly effective at teaching students to build equations from diagrams rather than hunting for the right formula to plug into. Rated 5.0 by students.

Kinematics equations and free-body diagrams become far less intimidating once a student learns to read each problem as a physical story rather than a math puzzle. Garrett breaks problems into setup, diagram, and solve phases, teaching students a repeatable framework they can apply from Newton's laws through electromagnetism. His science and math background lets him bridge the conceptual reasoning and the calculations seamlessly.

A year as a course assistant in Harvard's math department means Richard can handle the calculus that often becomes the real obstacle in physics — setting up integrals for work-energy problems or differentiating position functions in kinematics. He teaches across physics, calculus, and AP-level math, so when a mechanics problem demands clean vector decomposition or a tricky trig substitution, the math doesn't slow the physics down.

Understanding physics means seeing the same core principles — Newton's laws, conservation of energy, wave behavior — show up in wildly different problems. Amber teaches students to identify which principle applies and how to set up the math, drawing on her strong background in both science and mathematics. Her 5.0 client rating speaks to an approach that makes even tricky free-body diagrams and projectile motion problems feel manageable.

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.
