About your tutor
I have successfully guided around 300 students toward a deeper understanding and confidence in physics. With 3+ years of experience teaching AP Physics 1 to high school students, My tutoring approach is centered on making physics accessible and engaging by breaking down complex concepts into manageable parts and connecting theory to real-world applications. I believe that every student learns differently, so I adapt my methods to match individual needs, whether through visual aids, interactive problem-solving, or step-by-step explanations. My goal is to foster critical thinking and a genuine interest in physics, equipping students with the tools to tackle challenging problems independently. Known for my patience, clarity, and supportive teaching style, I create a positive learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and expressing difficulties. I also emphasize strategic test preparation, helping students master both content and test-taking techniques for AP success. In addition to AP Physics 1, I am skilled in related subjects, providing students with a well-rounded physics foundation that serves them across their academic journey.
