Amber
Certified College Physics Tutor
Amber
BA Dartmouth College
1+ Years Tutoring

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.

Karann
BA Cornell University
10+ Years Tutoring

Biological engineering demands serious physics fluency — Karann's dual major meant working through mechanics, thermodynamics, electromagnetism, and wave optics alongside the engineering applications that make those concepts tangible. Students tackling college-level kinematics or circuit analysis get someone who can connect the math to real physical systems rather than leaving it abstract.

Thomas
BA Carleton College
1+ Years Tutoring

Free-body diagrams, energy bar charts, unit analysis — Thomas leans on these unglamorous tools to keep college physics problems organized before the calculus even starts, which is often the step students rush past. His math and statistics training at Carleton means he's comfortable with the vector algebra and integration that show up in mechanics and E&M, and he's quick to spot when a student's math is technically correct but physically nonsensical. Holds a 5.0 rating.

Richard
MS Duke University • MS University of Wisconsin Madison
9+ Years Tutoring

Dual bachelor's degrees in math and physics plus a master's in atmospheric sciences means Richard didn't just pass college physics — he kept building on it through fluid dynamics, radiative transfer, and thermodynamics of weather systems. That depth lets him trace a concept like conservation of energy from a textbook block-on-a-ramp problem all the way to real atmospheric phenomena, giving students a richer sense of what the equations actually describe. He can also teach entirely in Spanish for bilingual students who think more clearly in their first language.

Aaron
PhD The Texas A&M University System Office • BA Missouri University of Science and Technology
10+ Years Tutoring

A PhD in math means Aaron doesn't flinch when a college physics problem requires setting up a second-order differential equation for a damped oscillator or working through the vector calculus behind Maxwell's equations — he's fluent in the mathematical language that makes or breaks university-level physics. He teaches problem solving as a craft, often starting with inverse reasoning: if students understand the forward relationship between variables, he shows them how to work backward through unfamiliar setups with confidence. Rated 5.0 by students.

Justin
BA Washington University in St. Louis • Doctor of Philosophy, Computational Mathematics University of Chicago
9+ Years Tutoring

Three years of tutoring introductory physics while completing dual bachelor's degrees in physics and mathematics gave Justin a detailed map of exactly where students lose the thread — the jump from one-dimensional kinematics to rotational analogs, the shift from intuitive force reasoning to formal energy methods. His PhD in Computational Mathematics at the University of Chicago deepened that foundation, adding fluency with the differential equations and vector calculus that make the leap from algebra-based to calculus-based physics so steep. Rated 5.0 by students.

Brice
Current Undergrad, Computer Science Massachusetts Institute of Technology
10+ Years Tutoring

Studying computer science at MIT means Brice lives inside the math and physics that most students only encounter on problem sets — his coursework regularly demands fluency in mechanics, wave behavior, and electromagnetism as foundations for everything from signal processing to computational modeling. He breaks physics problems into the same kind of step-by-step logical structure he'd use to debug code, which makes tangled multi-concept questions feel systematic rather than overwhelming. Rated 4.9 by students.

Pranav
BA Johns Hopkins University
8+ Years Tutoring

College-level physics demands more than plug-and-chug — problems in electrodynamics, rotational mechanics, or thermodynamics often require combining multiple principles in a single solution. Pranav digs into these multi-step problems as a Biomedical Engineering student at Johns Hopkins, where physics underpins much of his coursework. He walks through derivations and problem-solving strategies that build real fluency with the material rather than surface-level familiarity.
