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 mathe...

Kinematics, force diagrams, and energy conservation problems all require translating a physical scenario into math — a skill Karann sharpened through her biological engineering degree and her current work modeling ecological systems. She walks students through each physics problem by first building ...

Two physics degrees and a master's in atmospheric and space sciences mean Richard doesn't just know the textbook — he's applied Newtonian mechanics, electromagnetism, and fluid dynamics to research-level problems. He unpacks each concept by building it from first principles, so students develop phys...

Aaron's applied math background means he tackles physics problems by unpacking the math behind them — showing why a differential equation describes a spring, or how vector components actually simplify a force diagram. He teaches students to set up problems from first principles rather than hunting f...

Breanna's background is in education and counseling rather than engineering or lab science, but she's taught physics alongside math subjects from pre-algebra through calculus — so she knows exactly where the mathematical scaffolding breaks down for students tackling Newton's laws or energy conservat...

I am interested in making physics and math relatable to people who are not naturally adept at it. I have taken the SAT, the general GRE and the physics GRE subject tests.

I am an international student from China graduating from University of Wisconsin Madison majoring in Math. I also studied in Bonn University in Germany for one semester. While I was in UW Madison, I tutored college students enrolled in up to 13 math courses and entry level German courses both in lar...

I am an interdisciplinary educator with an Ed.M. from the Harvard Graduate School of Education and a B.A. from Dartmouth College. My background is primarily in integrated arts learning and museum education and I specialize in visual arts, history and art history, and object-based learning. In all su...

I'm not tutoring or buried in my textbooks, you will either find me rock climbing at the Triangle Rock Club, playing Ultimate Frisbee, working on my car, or enjoying the great outdoors (beaches, mountains, forests--you name it, I love it). On rainy weekends I enjoy tinkering with computers and old e...

I am a recent graduate from a masters program in biostatistics at Columbia University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in biological sciences, with a focus in neurobiology at Northwestern University. In August, I will be starting a doctoral program in biostatistics at NYU. I was a teaching assistant ...

I am a graduate of Wesleyan University, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with High Honors. With eight years of experience working in education, I've tutored students in math, science, history, and English, as well as helped students prepare for standardized tests. I've guided adults...

I am proud to be a part of Varsity Tutors! I am originally from San Antonio, TX; I completed my undergraduate education at Rice University in Houston where I received a bachelor's degree in Biochemistry and Cell Biology. Currently, I am in my second year of medical school at Baylor College of Medici...

I am a junior Mechanical Engineering major at Yale, and I hope to become a Naval Aviator after college. I am also a varsity sailor, and enjoy playing music with friends when I can get some free time. I have been tutoring my fellow students throughout my entire academic career, and I would best descr...

I'm Solange - a recent graduate from Harvard where I studied Sociology & Women's Studies. I've been tutoring for eight years now, and have worked with a wide range of ages and in a wide range of subjects. Some of my specialties are college prep/test taking II worked in the admissions office on campu...

I am a rising sophomore at Harvard College and am about to declare as a Mechanical Engineering concentrator, working towards a Bachelor of Science degree. I've always enjoyed sharing my knowledge with my peers and those around me and have done so in both formal and informal settings. I've been a tut...
