Featured Physics tutors in New York
I enjoy helping students understand challenging physics topics. My goal is to get students who have been tentative about physics to challenge themselves, and not to shy away from it. I fondly remember helping a struggling student improve their grades, alleviate test anxiety, and get into all of their desired high schools.

Bachelor of Science in Chemical Physics
My passion is finding the best way to make physics accessible and engaging for individual students. I've helped students improve their academic abilities and confidence by achieving meaningful goals. I recently helped a sophomore high school student boost his math grade from a B- to an A-, increasing his confidence and positivity in the course.

I help students thrive in their studies by explaining difficult concepts and showing how the material we learn can solve problems in the real world. I also love helping students find meaning in school beyond attaining grades. I’ve helped many of my students excel on SAT Physics and gain acceptance to top colleges.

How Gooroo tutors teach Physics
They demonstrate the value of Physics and set expectations for the student
Gooroo tutors encourage lifelong learning. So, with a difficult subject like Physics, Gooroo tutors especially stress understanding the underlying ideas and concepts. They also help the student to develop independence and coherence so that they believe in their own need to evaluate and understand, as well as understand the fact that Physics is a connected, consistent framework, as opposed to separate pieces or facts. Thus, the tutor helps the student make connections from mere concepts and mathematics to applications in the real world.
They effectively target learning misunderstanding and problems
Research has shown that physics students can learn 2.5 times more when there is a focus on issues they are having problems with, and there is discussion around it (as opposed to a traditional lecture alone). A student’s session with their Physics tutor is the perfect time to address any concepts or calculations a student is struggling with.

What parents and students say
I’ve had a lot of tutors before. My Gooroo tutors were different because they were more kind and approachable - they care more. One of my tutors, Joseph, helped me get 1.5 months ahead in my physics class in just 2 weeks. We met every other day, and he didn’t make it overwhelming like how my school class presented the information. He treated me like family.
