As a senior physics major and pre-med student, I am passionate about understanding and teaching the principles behind physics and mathematics. I have been tutoring math and physics through Varsity Tutors for nearly three years, working with students across a range of levels. My goal is to help students not only solve difficult problems, but also develop a deeper understanding of the concepts behind them. I approach tutoring by first identifying where a student's understanding begins to break down. From there, I work with them to rebuild the concept step by step, connecting new ideas to what they already know. I want students to leave each session with greater confidence and the tools to approach future problems independently. Outside of academics, I enjoy climbing, crocheting, baking, and skating. Whether you're looking to master difficult material, preparing for an exam, or building confidence in math and physics, I would be excited to work with you and help you reach your goals.

I'm here to help in your math and physics classes! As a rising senior in Aerospace Engineering at the University of Tennessee, I've been through nearly every math and physics course. I would like to use my past experience and education to help you excel in your STEM classes.

I'm an electrical engineering major at Brown University with interests in neuroscience, linguistics, and robotics, among other things. I've always loved learning, and my curiosity has led me through numerous subject areas. I constantly seek to apply my classroom learning in practical situations. For example, I have conducted research on dementia using electrophysiology in a mollusk model. I participate in hackathons and robotics challenges that test not only my programming ability but also my hardware skills as a tinkerer. My engineering pursuits require a strong foundation in mathematics, my interest in the life sciences calls for a myriad of memorization techniques, and my participation in the academic world at large reminds me daily of the importance of sharp writing skills. I hope to share some of these things, both content and technique, with my students. Though I will make sure that they can come away from each session armed with the skills needed to take on the modern education system, I also hope that they will take with them some appreciation for learning itself.

I am an undergraduate student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and I have tutored students since my early high school years. I've had experience instructing and guiding a variety of students, from young middle schoolers taking their first steps into the world of computer programming to my own peers struggling with their calculus exams. Over the past year alone, I've worked with over 30 students, spending several hours each day to help them stay up to speed on their schoolwork. I specialize in many areas of math as well as computer science, biology and physics. When tutoring students, I draw on my own experience with learning the material to identify and address the obstacles they face. I believe that promoting a deeper level of understanding of the subject, as opposed to merely teaching to the test or problem set, will enable students to excel in the long-term.

I am able to help with standardized tests, focusing on math and science sections, AP Calculus and AP Physics exams, and high school math.

I am now a medical student at Robert Wood Johnson Medical School.

I am a 2023 graduate of the University of Notre Dame with a Finance/Economics major and a minor in Innovation and Entrepreneurship. I am a passionate student in the math and business realms, as I enjoy the intuitiveness of the former and the real-world potential of the latter. During classes in middle and high school, I developed a reputation of being a good source of help within my classes in a non-tutor capacity, and grew that into a peer tutor role a couple times a week during lunch my senior year of high school. What I hope to accomplish with my tutoring is ensure that you not only achieve your desired grade/score, but see how the different concepts relate to each other in the bigger picture. The more important part is to critically think about the subject matter in other, more unfamiliar contexts. Also, in my math subjects, I seek to provide personal secrets in realms including quicker computation strategies, unique acronyms for certain rules, and other intuitive shortcuts.

I am a graduate of Syracuse University, with a BS in bioengineering. I am pursuing my MS in electrical engineering at the University of Pennsylvania.

I'm Nick! I'm a current undergraduate at MIT and a chemistry major. I specialize in chemistry and all sorts of math, but I also am proficient in French and Physics. I can also help with ACT preparation.

I'm a sophomore at Vanderbilt University, majoring in Physics and Classics and minoring in Mathematics and Computer Science. I'm qualified to teach a wide variety of subjects, but prefer to focus on the fields I'm studying in school listed above; I have a passion for those areas that I want to share with everyone, no matter the education level or confidence. I believe that no one is "bad at math," but many people haven't been taught math and science concepts in a way that matches how they best learn. As a result, I try to tailor my teaching style to be the best it can be for each individual student. With regard to math and physics, I myself prefer a physical, graphical understanding of different concepts, so I do best at explaining what seemingly abstract concepts actually mean in the real world and how they act on a graph.
