Physics is often the most challenging course a student faces in high school or early college. Whether you are navigating AP Physics 1, 2, or C, or tackling university-level Classical Mechanics, I provide the conceptual clarity and problem-solving frameworks needed to succeed.
AP Physics 1 & 2: Algebra-based foundations, Newtonian mechanics, and thermodynamics.
AP Physics C (Mechanics & Electricity and Magnetism): Calculus-based physics for students aiming for engineering and physical science majors.
College-Level Physics: Support for undergraduate sequences, including Optics, Waves, and Modern Physics.
Regents Physics: Specialized prep for New York State curriculum requirements.
Many tutors teach students to memorize formulas. This leads to confusion about which formula is relevant. I teach students to understand the why behind the physics. We focus on:
First Principles: Breaking down complex word problems into fundamental laws.
Math Integration: Seamlessly applying mathematical tools to physical systems.
Exam Strategy: Specific techniques for the multiple-choice and free-response sections of the AP exams to maximize scores.
