Award-Winning Physics Tutors serving Nashville, TN

...to push you to think on your own. I've tutored students before who simply wanted me to do their work for them, but that will not help you to learn at all. If you want to become self-sufficient, I will help you reach your goals. I tutor many high school and college level math/science courses including Algebra, Geometry, Calculus, Differential Equations, and Physics. I have attained a 3.85 GPA in my 5 semesters at Lipscomb....

...am teaching them. Not only do I focus on the subject matter being taught, but I also focus on helping students develop the study skills and habits that are imperative to success later in their academic careers. Through my four years of tutoring, I have developed the ability to mold my tutoring style around however the student learns best whether that be visually, through examples, etc. This allows me to provide an individualized tutoring session...

...puzzle, and who does not like a good puzzle? My teaching philosophy consists of learning about the students' interests and providing a way to relate their interests into the work they are doing so it can be more meaningful to them. I have found that the more a subject means to a student personally, the better they do in the subject. So, in this way it is possible to turn a subject weakness into a...

...Aerospace Engineer. I am very excited for the opportunity to work with motivated students who strive to improve their skills in mathematics, science, or standardized testing. I work hard to keep tutoring sessions organized, and drive interactive lesson plans that engage the students in cooperative problem solving. I am particularly passionate about physics and mathematics (through integral calculus), and would be thrilled for the opportunity to help others understand these subjects better.... Generally, in a first...

...been working towards that goal ever since. Outside of School I enjoy hiking, rock climbing, golf, Frisbee, tennis, a few video games, reading, writing, playing the ukulele, and simply exploring the world around me. When I'm not working in the lumber department or heading the Kids Workshop at Home Depot I am normally at home watching my roommates two Blue Heeler dogs or am outside in a hammock enjoying life. If you are looking for...

...one that adapts to each students' needs. For example, I have always tried to frame questions in a different way so that the student can better understand the question. Some students need visual representations of numbers and systems to understand them, and others benefit more by understanding the concepts behind each formula. I prefer to tutor in math and physics, and especially with real world application problems. I hope to help students improve their standardized...

...as a tutor for various entities. I have tutored in just about all academic areas but my favorite is math and just about anything to do with numbers. My teaching philosophy is that the teacher serves as a guide while learning is primarily the work of the student. I take the tutoring approach of starting with the students strengths and building on them in order to apply them to their weaknesses. Outside of academia, I...

...believe in aiding students in the learning process so they can feel better prepared for homework and tests, as well as grow in appreciation of the subject. On a mission trip, I lived in Mexico City for 6 weeks to study Spanish. For a year and a half after that time in Mexico, I taught in Spanish and studied it daily. I love to help others learn grammar and how to improve speaking this wonderful...

I desire to help students learn as efficiently as possible by playing to their strengths and supporting their weaknesses. I always ensure that the student understands the material before moving on.

...exhilarated at the chance to help others achieve the best version of themselves. I am highly adaptive in my tutoring style to the needs of the student, but my typical style is to help the student carefully reason through the places where they are facing difficulty, locating and chipping away at the aspects of the topic that give them the most trouble. Together, we build their skills up until they can hold their own on...

...surplus of "dad jokes" to make you laugh, and I typically teach with analogies. I believe in a laid-back approach. In college, I double majored in biochemistry and psychology. I'm currently finishing up my MS in microbiology and working as a surgical neurophysiologist. I have tutored for roughly 13 years, and I have taught college-level biology. If I am unable to help due to an issue on my end, I won't charge you. I have...

...chemistry and honors biology at another independent school. I love working with high school students and am most passionate about fostering an interest in science and an understanding of the science that is all around us. I am currently tutoring life science, environmental science, and ecology, my favorite being environmental science. I believe it is important for everyone to learn environmental science, and how we as humans are impacting our environment every day. My teaching...

...any society, as seen throughout history. My strengths lie in science and engineering, having an undergraduate background in both. I currently combine these fields in industrial design, where I am seeking a framework for customized design for the individual. In my free time, I travel and play with my dog, Sebastian. He is my world. I am an Atlanta native and lucky to have the majority of my family within driving distance.

...and committed teacher. But not nearly as much as they can from a skilled tutor. The content knowledge and methods of teaching skills / content can be focused to meet the individual student in a way that it simply can't in a full classroom. Guiding the student to their own "light bulb" moment is something that I always aim for with each session and is something that I've found happens more often with tutoring. I...

...school settings throughout my career. I have taught algebra 1, algebra 2, integrated math 1, 2, and 3, IB math, and physics. I believe that all students CAN be successful in math and my goal is to help them realize their learning potential. My favorite thing about teaching/tutoring is when a student finally makes a connection and understands something that they previously were confused about. Seeing the lightbulb turn on and them begin to feel...

I am an instrument rated commercial pilot and a certified instrument flight instructor. I am a double major at Middle Tennessee State University, where I study to be both a chemistry teacher as well as a professional pilot.

...great teacher in high school sparked my interest to study chemistry. During college years studying chemistry, my awareness about the environment grew until I decided to continue my education in environmental engineering. Being in school for a long time, I had many teachers that taught me not only science and math but also how to live and be a better person. I have learned from my teachers that patience and persistent are keys to success.

Over the course of my academic career I have acquired knowledge in a wide variety of subjects. While Mathematics is certainly my strongest area, my goal is to share as much knowledge as I can, with as many students as possible.

...High Tennis) and exercise in general, typically weightlifting. I can draw almost every character of Spongebob and wish I could tutor specifically in that. I have a passion for science and practically all branches of STEM fields, especially neuroscience and biology. As clich as it is, and as clich as saying "as clich as it is...", education is power and can transform every aspect of one's world. For that reason, I would love the opportunity...

...able to adapt to the different learning styles of their students, are humble enough to ask for and act on constructive criticism, and, most importantly, they never quit until the students themselves believe that they understand. In my teaching, I try to emulate these characteristics - adaptability, humility, and tenacity - so that my students and I are both satisfied. My academic passion lies in physics, astronomy, and math, and these are my favorite subjects...
