Between earning a mechanical engineering bachelor's and pursuing his master's, Aaron has taken calculus-based physics from every angle — statics, dynamics, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics — and now applies those principles daily in graduate-level research and coursework. He breaks down problems by teaching students to sketch the physical situation first, identify constraints, and only then select the right conservation law or force equation. Holds a 5.0 rating.

Biomedical engineering at Duke means Eric solves physics problems daily — modeling forces on prosthetic joints, analyzing fluid flow through artificial vessels, calculating electrical signals in biosensors — so the mechanics and electromagnetism in a college physics course map directly onto work he's already doing. He breaks multi-step problems into their physical components first, making sure the reasoning is solid before any math hits the page. Holds a 5.0 rating.
Serving as a TA for Duke's Electricity and Magnetism course means Florence has graded the exact types of problems — Gauss's law applications, RC circuits, Faraday's law scenarios — that make college physics students sweat, and she knows precisely where the reasoning breaks down. Her computer science background also gives her a knack for teaching the systematic, step-by-step problem decomposition that turns a wall of physics into something solvable. Holds a 5.0 rating.
Neuroscience gave Julie a deep working knowledge of the physics that governs biological systems — membrane capacitance, electrical potentials across ion channels, fluid dynamics in neural vasculature — so she brings a concrete, applied lens to college physics topics that other tutors treat purely abstractly. Her strong quantitative background (1480 SAT, dual B.S. in Neuroscience) means she's comfortable walking through the calculus-based derivations in mechanics and E&M without losing sight of what the physics actually describes. Rated 5.0 by students.
Circuit theory, power systems, and electronics — Prakash didn't just study these as textbook topics but taught them as a university instructor and TA, walking undergrad students through the exact calculus-based physics (Kirchhoff's laws, AC/DC analysis, electromagnetic induction) that makes college physics courses demanding. His industry experience as a practicing electrical engineer means he can ground abstract force and field problems in real systems, showing students how equations translate into physical behavior. Rated 4.8 by students.
Dance training might seem unrelated to physics, but Alisha's choreography work at VCU demands constant intuitive reasoning about momentum, rotational inertia, and force vectors — she literally feels what happens when a dancer's center of mass shifts mid-leap. She pairs that kinesthetic understanding with strong quantitative skills (a 34 ACT backs this up) to walk students through the mechanics and energy problems that dominate introductory college physics, translating abstract equations into something physically real.
A PhD in bioengineering from Georgia Tech means Jordan has spent years applying physics to biological systems — modeling fluid flow through tissues, analyzing mechanical forces on implants, solving heat transfer problems in living systems. That engineering depth makes the leap from textbook concepts like kinematics and thermodynamics to actual problem-solving feel natural, because Jordan has done it professionally. Rated 5.0 by students.
Studying physics at NC State while minoring in both computer science and mathematics means Gatlin is actively sitting in the same lecture halls and grinding through the same problem sets his students are — from projectile motion and torque to circuits and wave optics. That real-time immersion keeps him sharp on exactly which derivations and conceptual leaps cause the most confusion in introductory and intermediate courses. Rated 4.8 by students.
Danielle teaches across both physics and economics, which means she's comfortable with the kind of quantitative modeling — setting up equations, interpreting graphs, tracking how variables interact — that college physics problem sets demand. She zeroes in on the problem-setup phase, getting students to sketch force diagrams and identify constraints before jumping to formulas, especially in mechanics topics where a rushed start usually means a wrong answer.
Engineering coursework at NC State put Catrina through the full gauntlet of university-level physics, from electromagnetism and thermodynamics to fluid mechanics. She tackles college physics by walking through the conceptual reasoning behind each derivation so that students can set up novel problems confidently, not just replicate worked examples from lecture.
During her astrophysics program, Paige was a peer learning assistant for a college physics course designed for non-majors — an experience that taught her to explain electromagnetism, thermodynamics, and rotational dynamics without assuming a deep math background. She now applies that same clarity to college-level mechanics, waves, and modern physics. Students consistently rate her 5.0 for making dense material approachable.
That moment in college physics where a problem suddenly requires combining free-body diagrams with energy methods and kinematics all at once — David knows exactly where students stall, because his physics degree means he's worked through those multi-concept collisions from both the theoretical and problem-solving sides. He breaks down the transition from plug-and-chug high school problems to the layered reasoning college courses demand, especially in mechanics where students need to choose between Newton's laws and Lagrangian-style thinking on the fly.
I graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill with a Bachelor of Science in Physics. I work with students in a variety of subjects, including Math, Physics, and Chemistry. I have experience working with students on the Autism spectrum and with ADHD.
Kathleen's neuroscience background means she's already internalized the physics that governs biological systems — action potentials as RC circuits, diffusion as a thermodynamic process, imaging technologies built on wave mechanics and electromagnetic principles. She pairs that applied knowledge with serious math chops (her subject list runs from pre-algebra through multivariable calculus and biostatistics), so she can walk through both the conceptual reasoning and the calculus-heavy problem solving that college physics demands. Rated 4.9 by students.
Every problem set in calculus-based physics eventually comes down to translating a physical scenario into math — and as an electrical and computer engineering major, Artem does that translation daily across circuits, fields, and signal analysis. He breaks problems into their physical components first, teaching students to identify whether they're dealing with a conservation law, a force balance, or a field interaction before touching an equation. Rated 5.0 by students.
Currently studying at UNC Chapel Hill with AP Physics 1 and calculus in his teaching repertoire, Jeffrey tackles college physics problems by grounding them in the math fundamentals that make force diagrams, projectile motion, and energy conservation actually solvable. His 33 ACT reflects strong quantitative reasoning, and he breaks down multi-step mechanics problems into manageable pieces — isolating variables, checking units, and building intuition for when an answer makes physical sense.
Civil engineering coursework at Clemson put Matthew through the full sequence of calculus-based physics — statics, dynamics, fluid mechanics, structural loading — and his professional engineering experience means he's applied those principles to real designs, not just homework sets. He breaks down free-body diagrams and equilibrium problems with the practicality of someone who's had to get them right on actual projects. Rated 5.0 by students.
Preparing for medical school means Bria is actively working through the physics that underpins the MCAT — mechanics, optics, fluids, and electrostatics — so she knows which concepts feel deceptively simple until you hit a multi-step problem. Her Yale psychology background also gives her a sharp read on how students actually learn under pressure, which she channels into breaking down force diagrams and energy calculations step by step. Rated 5.0 by students.
Studying chemistry means Amanda spends most of her time inside the physics that chemistry depends on — thermodynamics governing reaction spontaneity, electrostatics driving molecular interactions, and wave mechanics underlying spectroscopy. She brings that cross-disciplinary fluency to college physics problem sets, especially when students need to connect the math (she scored a 33 ACT) to the physical intuition behind concepts like energy conservation and force analysis.
Two physics degrees — a B.S. and a PhD — mean Zhengdong has worked through every layer of the college physics sequence, from introductory Newtonian mechanics all the way to quantum theory and advanced electrodynamics. He's particularly effective at teaching students to translate a physical scenario into the right mathematical framework, whether that's setting up free-body diagrams in mechanics or applying Gauss's law to symmetric charge distributions. Rated 4.8 by students.
Pursuing an MD at Stanford after a double major in economics and molecular/cellular biology, Maggie brings a pre-med perspective to college physics that makes topics like optics, fluid dynamics, and wave mechanics feel immediately relevant rather than abstract. She's especially sharp at teaching students to set up problems cleanly — translating a physical scenario into the right free-body diagram or energy equation before doing any math. Rated 5.0 by students.
Building things that actually work — which is what mechanical engineering is — means Vania spent her degree applying Newton's laws to real structures, calculating heat transfer through materials, and analyzing fluid flow, not as textbook exercises but as design requirements. That hands-on engineering intuition shows up when she breaks down free-body diagrams or walks through energy conservation problems, because she's solved versions of them that had to hold up in the physical world. Her 1590 SAT underscores the quantitative precision she brings to calculus-based problem solving.
Studying molecular biophysics at Brown means Srini lives at the intersection of physics and biology — applying thermodynamics, electromagnetism, and wave mechanics to understand how molecules actually behave in living systems. That dual perspective makes him especially effective at unpacking the conceptual reasoning behind problems in mechanics, circuits, and optics that trip up so many college students.
Princeton's mechanical and aerospace engineering program is essentially a four-year immersion in applied physics — Fred spent it solving problems in fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, structural mechanics, and orbital motion, which maps directly onto the topics that fill college physics syllabi. He breaks down force diagrams and energy methods by connecting them to the engineering contexts where those concepts actually get used, making abstract problem sets feel more concrete. His 1550 SAT reflects the quantitative precision he brings to calculus-heavy coursework.
Molecular biology might seem like a different world from physics, but Annabel's coursework lives in the overlap — understanding diffusion requires thermodynamics, membrane potentials are voltage problems, and imaging techniques depend on wave optics and electromagnetism. She brings that life-sciences lens to college physics topics like energy conservation and fluid dynamics, making the material click for pre-med students who need to see why these concepts matter beyond the problem set.
College-level physics ramps up fast, especially when courses introduce calculus-based mechanics or electromagnetism for the first time. Charles works through these topics as part of his mechanical engineering curriculum at Yale, so he can walk through derivations of torque, moment of inertia, or Gauss's law with the fluency of someone who applies them in lab and design projects regularly.
Biomedical engineering at Brown means Phillip solves physics problems with real biological stakes — modeling fluid flow through vessels, analyzing stress on implant materials, calculating electrical signals in tissue. That daily overlap with mechanics, thermodynamics, and electromagnetism gives him a practical fluency that makes college physics problem sets feel less abstract and more like puzzles with actual answers. Rated 5.0 by students.
Three physics-related bachelor's degrees give Avram an unusually deep undergraduate perspective on the subject — he's worked through mechanics, electromagnetism, and modern physics multiple times across different programs, which means he knows exactly where the conceptual gaps tend to hide. He breaks down wave phenomena and optics problems by connecting the math back to physical intuition, so equations feel like descriptions of real behavior rather than symbols to manipulate. His 1520 SAT reflects the quantitative precision he brings to problem solving.
A physics PhD means Jonathan didn't just take college physics — he spent years teaching it, earning a teaching fellowship that kept him in front of students even while running his own research. That depth shows when he tackles the conceptual leaps that derail most introductory students, like connecting free-body diagrams to real force interactions or translating a word problem into the right conservation law. Rated 5.0 by students.
Studying computer science and applied math at Harvard means Derek uses physics constantly — from electromagnetism in circuit design to mechanics in computational modeling. He tackles college-level topics like Lagrangian dynamics and wave equations by connecting the math to physical intuition, making dense derivations feel less abstract.
Statics, dynamics, circuits, electromagnetics — Steve didn't just take these courses, he took them twice over, earning degrees in both mechanical and electrical engineering before working as a practicing engineer. That dual perspective is especially useful in college physics, where a problem about induced EMF or stress in a beam benefits from someone who's designed real systems around those principles. Rated 4.9 by students.
