Award-Winning College Physics Tutors

Remington doesn't just teach college physics — he lives it daily as a PhD researcher in condensed matter physics at the University of Maryland, where he runs experiments in a working lab. That hands-on fluency means he can unpack everything from free-body diagrams and rotational dynamics to electromagnetic induction with real physical intuition behind the math. Rated 5.0 by students.

Engineering coursework at Cornell means Abby is actively grinding through the same calculus-based physics — mechanics, wave motion, electromagnetism — that her students are tackling, which keeps her explanations grounded in the specific problem styles and pitfalls that show up on current exams. She breaks down multi-step problems by isolating the physical principle first, then translating it into the math, so students stop guessing which equation to use. Holds a 5.0 rating.

Biomedical engineering at Yale means Ellie applies physics daily — from fluid dynamics in circulatory models to electromagnetic principles in medical imaging. She breaks down topics like torque, wave optics, and circuit analysis by connecting them to real systems she encounters in her coursework and research. Rated 5.0 by students.

College-level physics demands more mathematical rigor than high school — suddenly, problems involve calculus-based derivations and vector analysis alongside conceptual reasoning. As a Johns Hopkins biomedical engineering and applied math student, Nicholas lives in that intersection of advanced math and physical modeling every semester. He walks through topics like rotational dynamics, electric fields, and wave optics with the precision college courses require.

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.

Having served as a teaching assistant for Differential Equations and Mechanics at Notre Dame, Jeffrey has already spent time explaining the exact concepts — torque, oscillations, coupled systems — that trip up students in university physics courses. His mechanical engineering PhD work at Rice deepens that fluency, especially in thermodynamics and rotational dynamics where the math gets dense fast. He's rated 4.9 by students.

TA-ing MIT's Physics II course gave Cori front-row experience with the stumbling blocks college students face — from applying Maxwell's equations to navigating multi-step problems in mechanics and thermodynamics. She approaches each topic by building physical intuition first, then layering on the math. Her engineering background means she can also show how these principles appear in real material systems and design problems.

A bio-organic chemistry degree means Alex spent semesters in calculus-based physics courses where thermodynamics, electromagnetism, and mechanics weren't electives — they were prerequisites for understanding molecular behavior. That chemistry-physics overlap gives him a knack for unpacking energy conservation and electric potential in ways that click for students who think in terms of atoms and reactions rather than pulleys and ramps.

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.

Predentistry requires a deep pass through college physics — optics, fluid dynamics, mechanics of materials — and Erica tackled that coursework at Harvard alongside a History of Science degree that gave her an unusual ability to explain *where* physical concepts come from and how they evolved into the frameworks students use today. She breaks down problem-solving by connecting the conceptual narrative to the math, so students aren't just plugging into formulas but understanding the physics driving each step. Rated 4.9 by students.

Biomedical engineering at Johns Hopkins means Christine solves physics problems daily that most students only see in textbooks — fluid dynamics in blood flow, pressure gradients across membranes, mechanics of prosthetic joints — giving her a concrete, application-heavy lens for the material. She's particularly strong on the thermodynamics and mechanics portions of college physics, where her coursework overlaps most directly with standard problem sets. Holds a 5.0 rating.

Molecular biology might seem like a different world from physics, but Agustin's coursework lives in the overlap — diffusion equations, fluid dynamics in cellular transport, and the thermodynamics behind protein folding all demand real physics fluency. He pairs that life-sciences perspective with strong quantitative chops (1560 SAT) to break down mechanics and energy problems in ways that click for students who think more naturally in biological terms than abstract force diagrams.

Working at an ExxonMobil refinery before MIT Sloan meant Caroline spent years applying thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and force analysis to real industrial systems — the same physics that fills college problem sets, except with actual consequences for getting the math wrong. Her mechanical engineering M.S. from WashU (magna cum laude) gave her deep fluency with calculus-based derivations, so she can walk through everything from torque problems to heat transfer without skipping the steps that textbooks gloss over. Rated 5.0 by students.
