Award-Winning Physics Tutors serving Maryland

...that the student will be motivated to approach problems with increased skill and eventually confidence. A student's insight is important to solving mathematics and calculus problems. Sometimes this insight is based on physical intuition--but it does not need to be. I spend time to ensure that the student starts on a correct approach. With years of hands-on-experience in electrical engineering and physical systems, I am able to associate the equations describing a system with its...

I am a recent graduate of Brandeis University where I double majored in Neuroscience and Health Policy. I am a veteran of the Montgomery County Public School system.

I've been tutoring math and science for the last ten years. I really like this job because I enjoy working with kids, and I also love to talk about my interests. This is a great job. My hours are flexible, and I can re-arrange times to fit your needs (for example, if there's a test on Tuesday, I could come on Monday instead of the scheduled time). I can also tutor both SAT and GRE.

...opportunity to work with Habitat for Humanity, both building homes and tutoring the children who lived in the neighborhoods we were working in. It was incredibly rewarding to work with the same students for multiple years and watch them develop, both as students and people. As an undergraduate student, I also worked as a teaching assistant for Organic and Analytical Chemistry labs, helping students complete experiments and understand material from the lectures.

...student, my favorite subjects were Math, Science, and Art. Of the three subjects, Math is my strongest and also my favorite subject to teach, followed by Sciences (especially Chemistry). Working with kids and teens has taught me the importance of patience and finding ways to keep the material interesting. I have found that the best way to learn is rarely by listening to someone, but instead by doing and having a conversation throughout the learning...

...a teaching assistant for a senior level composite mechanics course. Also in graduate school, I served as the laboratory manager for the Composites Manufacturing Laboratory on campus were I instructed hundreds of students on the basics of fabricating composite parts for a variety of applications including vehicle wing elements, rocket casings, and sporting goods. When tutoring a student, I prefer to learn what motivates them to be successful and where their passion lies with a...

...in mathematics, and a bachelors in physics and art history, as well as doing part of a masters in physics. After college I worked for a geophysics firm for a year doing data analysis and programing. After that contract ended I moved to China for 3 years where I taught high school A-Levels and AP physics and mathematics. I'm not living in Arlington Virginia and attending Johns Hopkins for a masters in International Relations. I...

...from a family of engineers and was always taught to understand the root of concepts in order to be able to apply them fluidly when problem-solving. I have studied, enjoyed, and done well in psychology, biology (cell, molecular, genetics), chemistry, physiology, physics, anatomy, and more. As I move forward to make a career out of science, I trust that I have learned the material well and am able to apply and teach it. I have...

...and Cellular Biology. I hope to graduate in the next one and a half years and continue to medical school. I have tutored students in high school and middle school math in the past. I have also worked with a test prep company tutoring both the SAT and ACT. When I tutor, I usually simplify seemingly difficult concepts into something much easier for the student to understand; therefore, they are able to complete their homework...

...in my blood-my mother is a teacher, and she instilled in me the love of helping someone reach his or her potential with compassion and enthusiasm.

I am a massive...

...most inspired to pursue this Socratic style of teaching after taking several courses in college from a professor who had perfected the technique. The majority of his class-time revolved around asking us questions that led us to the points he was trying to make. While not everything can be taught purely in this fashion, I try to make my lessons focus on principles and processes, creating a deeper understanding of the facts presented in class...

...Bachelor of Arts in Justice, Law, and Society, while also completing a Minor in Applied Physics. I have a deep passion for both criminal justice and physics, and have written and edited a variety of papers in both subjects. In addition to law and physics, I am also fairly skilled with languages, having taken Spanish for six years, and Italian, Ancient Greek, and Latin for a year apiece. In addition to focusing on law, physics,...

...math topic as just a little explanation of a previous topic will engage students with the problem at hand. My primary interests outside of mathematics are globetrotting and movies. I love meeting new people and seeing new sights. I usually try to do satisfy my wanderlust by travelling to new cities and countries. So far, I have visited at least 24 countries and hope to see many more. I am currently living in Budapest and...

...undergraduate courses: Number Theory and Discrete Mathematics. My duties involved giving weekly tutorials and designing and evaluating homework and quizzes.
