Award-Winning AP Physics 2 Tutors serving River Forest, IL

I am a german-born physicist. After my PhD at the University of Pittsburgh I spent almost 4 years doing cutting edge research at Argonne National Lab in Chicago, IL in theoretical particle physics. I love teaching, passing on knowledge and inspiring people to find their footing in math and physics!

Hi! My name is Ryan; I am a recently graduated Mechanical Engineering major from Carnegie Mellon University. I tutored for three years before starting with Varsity, and I can't wait to help you!

...love being part of a student's learning and gaining that satisfaction when students understand an abstract concept with my help. Being privileged and fortunate enough to have had a strong foundation in a variety of topics, I feel that tutoring, teaching, and helping others understand my favorite subjects are the perfect ways to give back...

...in every field. I also have experience dealing with situations in which students are not quickly or readily grasping concepts, and I have developed the patience to handle these situations. Teaching is just as rewarding for the student as it is for me, because I am thrilled when I see others achieve, and I would...

...the opportunity to integrate my studies in communication theories and the sciences as an environmental scientist and engineer working for the power industry focused on understanding than designing engineering systems to minimize the impacts of environmental pollution on public health. I eventually received a graduate scholarship from the Society of Women's Engineers to complete my...

...with kids as a swim instructor and music teacher for the past six years now. As I've begun developing experience tutoring students, my favorite part about helping students learn math and science concepts is teaching them how these different concepts interconnect and later helping them to develop critical thinking skills to work through difficult material.

...was never the first to pick up on any new concept but struggled through each one to understand. I still remember the conceptual hoops one needs to jump through in order to learn the material. I have a more personal approach and like to explain things so they are simple. Working with me will be...

...one-on-one between peers and teaching ESL online. I am a recent college graduate, so I remember very well the process of learning new material. My 4 year degree was earned at Grand Valley State University where I majored in Biomedical Science. This degree drew upon many disciplines where I have consequently gained a holistic and...

...technical skills. My teaching philosophy centers on an individualized approach, with a strong emphasis on cognitive modeling as a tool to enable students to learn how to reason through a problem - a vital skill, not only in math and science, but in life in general. I hold a deep love for physics, math, and...

...and currently work part-time as a Course Assistant for an Introductory Calculus course at Harvard. I especially love tutoring math and making it a more accessible subject for students to learn. Aside from academics, I'm passionate about community service (I'm a director for a student-run homeless shelter!), music, digital design, and baking!

...enjoy seeing my students improve and achieve new goals as I work with them. Moving away from the swimming environment, I started to tutor students for math and science . I quickly realized that I enjoyed teaching in this environment as well, particularly because I enjoy math and science and their relevance to my everyday...

...I acknowledge the two-way nature of it. Not only does tutoring help a tutee learn certain material, it also helps me master some old concepts. While I tutor a variety of subjects, one of my favorites is mathematics. I love teaching this subject because its concrete and builds problem-solving skills. I think that education is...

I have a deep love of math and science and teaching. I have a PhD in physical chemistry from the University of Chicago. I have been tutoring and teaching for 15 years. I have experience tutoring all levels of math from arithmetic to calculus, chemistry, and physics.

Graduated from Northwestern University with a Major in Biological Sciences and a concentration in Biochemistry and Biophysics. Tutored Advanced Undergraduate Organic Chemistry throughout college. Years of experience tutoring Math, various Sciences, and Spanish from elementary through High School. I believe in approaching problems from multiple angles, understanding the processes, and using real world examples to...

...taught undergraduate courses in Newtonian physics, special relativity, and electricity and magnetism. I also participated in physics outreach programs focused on facilitating interest in Physics for local middle and high school students. I believe that if a student has the desire and patience to learn, no branch of mathematics or physics is out of reach...

...applying for masters programs this fall in economics and/or computational public policy. I also have 4 years of experience in tech consulting and love working with people from all walks of life. I have lots of experience working with students of all ages including middle school, high school, college, and adults :) I have worked...

...of subjects including elementary math, pre-algebra, algebra and American History, with a particular emphasis in the American Revolution time period. I have worked with many different types of students ranging from middle schoolers, high schoolers and even some graduate level students. My philosophy behind tutoring is that everyone is capable of learning, however not all...

...chair for the Tau Delta chapter of the Alpha Epsilon Pi fraternity. In my experiences as a student I have realized how important it is to have individuals that are able to help as you progress through school, especially when you are struggling. To this end I want to be a great academic resource for...

I'm an engineering major who is passionate about teaching and loves to work with kids.... My teaching philosophy is learning by doing. It's important that students practice the skills they learn right away through guided and unguided practice problems. Students should be given the chance to figure out the problem for themselves before help is given.
