Award-Winning Physics Tutors serving Connecticut

I served as the lead undergraduate tutor for thermodynamics and strength of materials while studying Mechanical Engineering at RPI. I am interested in tutoring high school students in Algebra, Geometry, and Trigonometry.

...or as a gesture. And I really enjoy doing it. My tutoring subjects include Mathematics, Chemistry, Physics and Biology, with Mathematics and Chemistry as my favourites primarily because I enjoy challenging myself to do better. I also find that a strong understanding of the principles of these subjects usually serves as a catalyst to drive basic understanding of other subjects. As a tutor, I believe that no subject is too difficult to learn, especially with...

I have truly enjoyed studying the sciences in my college years, and since then have enjoyed even more so to tutor the scientific concepts to others!... Teaching is gauged by the comprehension of the student. If one knows something well, they can help another understand it in terms beneficial for the learner!... I like to get an idea of the student's comfort level with the material, and whether or not the student recognizes exactly which hurdles...

...also learn and refresh oneself on subjects you never thought you would have to visit again after learning them. And the feeling of accomplishment that comes along with being able to revive these subjects and learning experiences is absolutely amazing. I love the fact that tutors are learning constantly from the experience simultaneous to teaching students. When I usually tutor in these areas, I find that a main thing that students struggle with is understanding...

...than that of shared understanding. When I am working with students, I seek to help them achieve a mastery of the subject that will stay with them for the rest of their lives and serve as strong foundation for their future intellectual endeavors. I was fortunate to have many fine teachers and appreciate what their talents helped me achieve. Now I seek to live up to that example and impart that same curiosity and thoughtfulness...

...mathematics dates back to my years in middle school and high school, where I excelled in Mathematics. My mother was a high school math teacher so I was naturally inclined to the love of math. In college I decided to go into a more challenging field other than math, and so I decided to major in computer engineering. I am still in the process of achieving my bachelor's degree in engineering, and I also hope...

...working with people to solve problems because it is an excellent way to better both people's lives and my own. We both learn from the experience. Working on STEM problems is the favorite part of my day. Everything builds off of what you have already mastered; your skills and knowledge grow, becoming a more complex and logical tool. STEM is an amazing branch of life that has infinitely many uses and avenues to go down,...

...Ethan and I'm a senior electrical engineering student at the University of Connecticut! At school, I also work as a physics and engineering tutor for first and second year students. I have always had a passion for math and science, and absolutely love to learn and then teach others! My previous work experience includes working at NASA on the Mars Mission 2020 program. In my free time I love to read, write, and hike!

...mathematicians, scientists, and engineers alike to achieve their goals through excellence in academics. I am a Mechanical Engineer for United Technologies for 2 years now (August 22, 2018). I've also been teaching and tutoring both as a teaching assistant and a tutor at alma mater for 3 years. I've continue tutoring through Varsity tutor for the past 2 years as well. My expertise is Calculus 1, 2, and 3. However, I've tutored students in all...

I knew that I wanted to be a teacher from the 4th grade. Chemistry came as a later love, but I combined these two into my current job of teaching chemistry. I have taught chemistry since 2006 and I look forward to helping you with your journey in chemistry as well. I attended Colgate as an undergraduate, then Binghamton University for my Masters in Chemistry.

Getting new insight on problems that are difficult to solve can be beneficial, even more so sometimes than self-study. I aim to provide or hint at approaches, give background on concepts, and cooperate with the student so that they succeed and are satisfied!

...specific way, but by learning how that student thinks and works over several sessions and by integrating that into my lessons. Additionally, I emphasize understanding core principles first and specific problems, questions, or exercises laterunderstanding the why makes the what much simpler. Outside of tutoring, some of my hobbies include watching movies (I'm a fan of both old classic movies and new summer blockbusters), playing video games (particularly rhythm games and RPGs), and listening to...

...only struggling with understanding a single word, not the entire mathematical concept. As a rule, people perform better and are better motivated when they have self-confidence, not when the task ahead seems frighteningly daunting. It is also important to recognize that different students learn best through different means. As an example, some students are visual learners and can understand the material best through pictures and gestures. Other students learn best through hearing the procedures vocalized,...
