Dependable tutor with physics experience
I only tutor physics, and sometimes the math to go with it. Mostly I tutor AP Physics 1, AP Physics C: Mechanics, AP Physics C: Electricity & Magnetism, High School Physics, Honors Physics, Calculus-based Introductory College Physics, and Algebra / trig –based Introductory College Physics. I also sometimes work with students in AP Physics 2, Honors Physics, Homeschool Physics, and so forth. I taught high school physics for 6 years. In that time, my students earned a statewide reputation for excellence on IB Physics SL and IB Physics HL exams, in spite of taking the IB Physics SL exam at the end of the first year rather than after two years. They also performed well on exams for AP Physics C Mechanics, AP Physics C Electricity and Magnetism, and AP Physics B (a combination of AP Physics 1 and AP Physics 2, more or less). In the final year, they dominated the competitive Drake physics exam, administered to over 1,000 students in four states by Drake University. I also taught high school math in rural Kenya through the Teach for Knowledge program. And I’ve taught English as a Second language online and for one hour as a guest in a junior high school in Uganda. I have a BSC in Physics from South Eastern Kenya University.
Subjects: AP Physics, Astrophysics, Biology, Essay Writing, History, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Word, Nuclear Physics, Physics, Physics (Electricity and Magnetism), Physics (Newtonian Mechanics), Physics (Waves and Optics), Pre-Algebra, Writing

Physics & Math Tutor | PhD | 27 Years Teaching Experience
I am a physics educator with over **27 years of experience** teaching and tutoring students from middle school through college. I have extensive experience working with **neurodivergent** students. I have a **PhD in Physics Education Research**, spent nine years as a college physics professor, taught high school physics and mathematics, and served as a Science Department Chair. My specialty is helping students move from "I don't understand physics" to seeing physics as something they can solve and enjoy. I focus on building strong conceptual understanding, problem-solving strategies, and confidence—not just memorizing equations for the next test. I work with students in **AP Physics 1, AP Physics 2, AP Physics C, general physics, college physics, and nearly all levels of mathematics**. Whether you are preparing for an AP exam, struggling with a challenging college course, or looking to strengthen your foundation, I tailor each session to your goals and learning style. My teaching background has taught me that every student learns differently. I create a supportive environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes, and developing the skills needed to become independent learners. Online tutoring allows us to work together effectively using digital whiteboards, shared problem-solving, and interactive explanations. Sessions are typically 60–90 minutes, giving us enough time to understand concepts, practice problem-solving, and make meaningful progress.
Subjects: AP Physics, AP Physics C Mechanics, Advanced Physics (Special Relativity), Honors Physics, IB Physics, Math, Math/Science, Mathematics, Physical Science, Physics, Physics (Electricity and Magnetism), Physics (Newtonian Mechanics), Physics (Waves and Optics), SAT II Physics, SAT Mathematics, physics 30
