Award-Winning Physics Tutors serving Philadelphia, PA

...for students taking the course. I really enjoy working with students of all different learning styles and creating a plan that helps them achieve their potential. Tutoring allows me to keep my skills in the sciences fresh, while helping other students. I am passionate about the sciences and like to apply concepts I learn in class to real life situations. In my first year of dental school I completed a rigorous biomedical science curriculum including...

...future beyond. A typical first time tutoring session would begin with me assessing where you are as a student in the topic at hand, asking you what you want out of our sessions (and me suiting your need to that desire as much as possible), and beginning a lesson plan. My SAT tutoring is split into 3 sections; the student takes home each part of a practice test and completes it, and once our session...

...I also believe that an intense, lecture-driven approach is rarely conducive to fostering an atmosphere of curiosity and willingness to try. Therefore, I will regularly solicit feedback, encourage questions, and assess what methods work best for you so that I can adjust my approach accordingly. Having tutored students since high school, I firmly believe that learning and education can be life-changing when we are curious, determined, and willing to make mistakes. When I am not...

Hi! My name is Claire and I'm excited about the opportunity to work with you! I graduated from Amherst College in 2015 with a degree chemistry and plan to matriculate to medical school this August. I'm comfortable tutoring elementary- through college-level science, math, English and Spanish and have significant test-prep experience, including SAT, AP and MCAT exams.

Over the last few years I have had the pleasure of tutoring some of the most athletically talented students at Temple University. The best part of the job has always been the teammate like relationship we form when setting academic goals together and then reaching them for the student using tools tailored to the student's study style and needs. ... I believe the student's goals for the class are what drives our productivity, so it is...

...as productive as possible. My previous students have received A's in difficult engineering courses such as thermodynamics, statistical mechanics, and fluid dynamics. As a Ph.D. student, I am constantly confronted with challenging engineering and science problems which require critical problem solving and I try to help students with develop this same type of intellectual autonomy which is usually neglected in large classrooms. Besides helping students develop to their full potential I also often help students...

I am a secondary math teacher with over ten years of tutoring experience. I graduated with a degree in Biology from Washington State University and a Masters in secondary education from Gonzaga University. I love helping students master the concepts that they need to be successful in their classes and on their tests!

...I have learned to adapt and change my learning style multiple times throughout high school, college, and medical school. As a soon-to-be doctor, one of the most important things I can do with my patients is to listen to them, their needs, and where they are coming from. This ability to listen is crucial also for tutoring and understanding a child's academic needs. In working with patients, I also regularly break down tough scientific concepts...

...have been volunteering my time tutoring with underserved populations throughout California and Pennsylvania. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Mathematics (all branches from Algebra to Calculus) and Science (Biology, Chemistry, and Physics). As a high school student, I vividly remember preparing for the SAT and hope to use the tactics that I learned to help other students who may need improvement! I firmly believe in helping students and...

...the Sustainable Energy Certificate. I have a strong background in tutoring both math and physics, having done so with underclassmen through high school programs. I've also worked extensively with kids and teens, at a waterspouts day camp in Miami, and a sleepaway camp in North Carolina. I think the most important motivator in tutoring is to show my own enthusiasm for the subjects I teach. Breaking down a problem, and making "problem maps" for complex...

I graduated from the University of Notre Dame in 2015 with a bachelor's degree in Political Science. After graduation I then completed a Pre-Health Specialized Studies Post Bacc Program at the University of Pennsylvania with plans to ultimately attend medical school. During my time at Notre Dame I spent 2 years tutoring students through College Mentors for Kids. Although I am confident working with all subjects, I am particularly comfortable tutoring in math, reading, physics,...

...a minor in Business. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about math, science, and college application help. Being the oldest in my family, the application process was very new and overwhelming. Through countless research and helping younger students, I am confident in my knowledge of the application process and my ability to help formulate strong essays and applications. As an engineering student, I am constantly learning new math and...

...and I'll be applying to medical school next year. I've been helping students with physics, math, and SAT prep since college, and more recently I've been focusing on tutoring pre-medical subjects (Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Biology, Biochemistry, Physics, Psychology/Sociology) and MCAT preparation. I understand how intimidating the mighty MCAT can feel. I help my students master both the content and strategy of the test, develop manageable study routines, and build the confidence they need to perform...

...content and the test taking process. For the last two years I've served as a teaching assistant to the first year medical students in the Gross Anatomy course. During my time at Bryn Mawr I tutored students who were struggling in the basic sciences (physics, biology, chemistry and organic chemistry). I've also spent a great deal of time working with children of all ages. From my time spent as a canoeing instructor for 9-14 year...

...we learn and have fun in the process. Because I am passionate about the sciences, I incorporate them into my everyday life and teach with enthusiasm and creativity. I recognize that every student has different styles and rates of learning, so I cater my lessons to best align with each student. I will never ask my students to work beyond their capabilities, but I will strive to show them they are capable of far more...

I am a graduate of UCLA with a major in Physiological Science and a minor in Spanish. This past year, I worked in a third grade math class with City Year New York. I have years of tutoring experience, and I am passionate about learning and working with children.

...I have been a tutor to many kids of all ages and learning abilities from grades four to sophomore year of college. My goal is to not only teach, but to inspire in all aspects and areas of growth. For this reason, I have worked with special needs children at a summer camp, coached a youth water polo team and a girl's club volleyball team, and have helped to develop and teach a clinical bioengineering...

...teaching constantly adapts to the needs of the individual student, using visual aids, mnemonics, and emotional support as needed. One of the best compliments I ever received was from a rival who sat in on a physiology tutoring session I led in graduate school. He said, "You break it down so that a six-year-old could understand it." This is the level of understanding I aim to impart to all my students. I firmly believe that...

Tutoring is a great opportunity for me to continue to pursue a mission of education and providing a venue for anyone to receive help in understanding science. I believe science literacy is incredibly important in our modern society. I have ten years of experience teaching middle school science and a degree in chemistry education from the University of Delaware. My experience has allowed me to develop a variety of strategies to appeal to multiple learning...

...working towards attaining a B.S. in Biochemistry, as well as a minor in Business and Administration. Over the last five years, I have reconciled my passion for teaching and my desire to interact with fellow students through tutoring. While I have tutored in a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about science, math, and English. Having taught many students, each of whom were different in terms of personality and learning style, I understand...
