Grishma

Middle School Math Tutor • +69 Subjects

I'm passionate about helping students because I've seen how meaningful support can turn uncertainty into confidence. Having excelled academically myselfI graduated in the top 1% of my high school class and completed a rigorous AP curriculum in subjects like Chemistry, Biology, Physics, Calculus BC, English, Economics, and SpanishI know how transformative good teaching can be. I later earned my undergraduate degree from Northwestern University, where I studied Neuroscience, Anthropology, and Global Health. Those disciplines deepened my appreciation for how people learn, think, and connect across different perspectives. Throughout college and medical school, I've tutored students of varying ages and backgrounds in subjects including biology, chemistry, math, and writing, as well as standardized test preparation. My favorite subjects to tutor are biology and writingbiology because it helps students see the logic and beauty behind how living systems work, and writing because it empowers them to express complex ideas with clarity and confidence. My teaching philosophy centers on patience, adaptability, and curiosity. I approach each session as a collaboration, tailoring lessons to each student's needs and helping them build problem-solving skills rather than rely on rote memorization. Outside of academics, I'm passionate about photography and travelboth of which keep me creative, observant, and open-minded, qualities I bring into every tutoring interaction.

Cera

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +58 Subjects

I am a graduate of Brigham Young University with a Bachelor's degree in manufacturing engineering. I am also a Salt Lake Community College graduate. I love building things, challenging the status quo, and studying the way the world works. I have tutored for just over three years, and I tutor physics, algebra, reading, and test prep. Physics is one of my passions because I love learning about the world around me. Physics is intuitive and learning the laws that govern the world around us helps expand our understanding. I am a very hands-on tutor. I believe that working directly with things and especially working on projects of interest helps us learn and make connections better than anything else. I love analogies, experiments, and anything else that helps bring the problems off the page and into the student's life. I love to invent and build things and I spend most of my spare time working on humanitarian teams through my university or sewing my own clothing.

Zachary

AP Calculus BC Tutor • +36 Subjects

I recently graduated Summa Cum Laude from Utah State University with a minor in Mathematics, a B.S. in Physics, and a B.A. in Philosophy. I work in research related to quantum cosmology and the philosophy of time. I have years of experience teaching and tutoring in math, science, and literature at the high school and university level. By a comprehensive study and mastery of the ACT test, I achieved a composite score of 35 on the exam. I enjoy sharing the techniques and strategies I used to score in the 99th percentile, knowing that all student can increase their scores and master the test with guidance and practice. My approach in ACT tutoring focusses on strengthening key content knowledge, increasing answer accuracy and speed, and building up an understanding of the test dynamics. I work one-on-one with students to develop a custom study plan. Equipped with these skills and background, students will feel confident and primed for success on test day. My tutoring in mathematics and physics draws on many of those same principles and also focuses on intuitive approaches to understanding the methods in a straightforward, meaningful way. I affirm that learning is a source of great satisfaction and a powerful tool, and I enjoy sharing the experience of education with my students.

Matthew

AP Calculus BC Tutor • +43 Subjects

I am one year from completing my Bachelor of Science at the Florida Institute of Technology. I am majoring in both Astronomy and Astrophysics, as well as Planetary Science; with a minor in Computer Science. Upon completion of my Bachelor degree I plan on pursuing a Masters degree, most likely in Physics, Exoplanetary Studies, or Engineering Physics. I find that most students struggle in math and physics because they lack true engagement towards these topics, it is my personal philosophy that how you learn a subject can immensely impact your abilities to succeed in and willingness to pursue related subjects in your academic career. I enjoy working with all ages, as I believe it is never too late to start learning and I enjoy helping students become passionate about their studies. Personally; I am passionate about the fundamental interplay between foundational mathematics and its applications to higher-level physics. My tutoring style/strategies require interactive engagement with students and honest communication; this allows me to understand precisely what is necessary to enhance your learning experience, and encourages students to engage with the content with curiosity and excitement. I feel comfortable tutoring subjects ranging from elementary school mathematics, up to college level mathematics and physics courses. I have experience tutoring my college peers in a wide-range of topics from college algebra and calculus to advanced physics courses such as Electromagnetic Theory and Physical Mechanics.

Frequently Asked Questions

Grade 11 Physics students most commonly struggle with kinematics and dynamics—particularly understanding the difference between velocity and acceleration, and applying Newton's laws to multi-force systems. Circular motion, energy conservation, and momentum problems also challenge students because they require visualizing motion in non-linear paths and tracking energy transformations across different forms. Additionally, many students find electromagnetic concepts abstract; connecting invisible magnetic fields and induced currents to real-world applications like generators or transformers helps solidify understanding.

Vector problems trip up many Grade 11 Physics students because they require both mathematical skill and spatial reasoning. A tutor can break down the process: drawing accurate free-body diagrams, resolving forces into components, and using trigonometry systematically. Working through problems step-by-step with visual scaffolding—sketching diagrams together, color-coding components, checking reasonableness of answers—helps students build confidence and catch common mistakes like forgetting to include all forces or mixing up angle conventions.

Grade 11 Physics labs require students to design experiments, collect data, and analyze results—skills that go beyond memorizing formulas. A tutor can help you think through experimental design (identifying variables, controlling for error), interpret graphs and trends in your data, and connect lab observations back to theoretical concepts. This bridges the gap between "following procedure" and truly understanding why an experiment works, which strengthens both your lab reports and your grasp of the underlying physics.

Many Grade 11 Physics students freeze when facing problems that combine multiple concepts—like projectile motion with energy conservation, or circuits with both series and parallel components. The key is systematic problem-solving: start by identifying what you know and what you're solving for, sketch a diagram, choose relevant equations, and work through algebra carefully. A tutor can teach you to break complex problems into manageable chunks, check your work at each step, and recognize which concepts apply—turning overwhelming problems into a series of familiar steps.

Electric and magnetic fields, wave behavior, and quantum concepts are inherently abstract—you can't see them directly. Effective tutoring uses multiple strategies: analogies (like ripples on water to understand waves), interactive simulations to show how changing variables affects behavior, and real-world connections (how cell phone signals use electromagnetic waves, or how MRI machines exploit magnetic fields). Building mental models through these approaches helps you move beyond memorizing definitions to actually understanding how fields and waves behave.

Grade 11 Physics exams typically test both conceptual understanding ("Why does this happen?") and problem-solving ability ("Calculate this value"). Effective preparation requires practicing both: working through calculation problems to build speed and accuracy, and also explaining concepts in writing or verbally to ensure you understand the "why" behind formulas. A tutor can help you identify weak conceptual areas, practice explaining physics principles clearly, and develop test-taking strategies like working backwards from answers or estimating reasonableness—skills that improve performance on both multiple-choice and free-response sections.

Unit conversions and dimensional analysis are mechanical skills that many students rush through, leading to errors that cascade through entire problems. Grade 11 Physics involves unfamiliar units (pascals for pressure, tesla for magnetic field, joules for energy), and students often forget to convert or misapply conversion factors. Tutoring emphasizes treating units as part of the problem-solving process: writing them out explicitly, canceling them like fractions, and checking that your final answer has the correct units. This habit catches errors early and builds confidence that your solution makes physical sense.

A strong Grade 11 Physics tutor should have deep knowledge of the curriculum and the ability to explain concepts multiple ways—because what clicks for one student might not work for another. Look for someone who emphasizes understanding over memorization, uses diagrams and real-world examples, and can help you develop problem-solving strategies rather than just showing you solutions. They should also be comfortable with the lab and experimental components of Grade 11 Physics, since understanding how theory connects to hands-on work is crucial to success in the course.
