MBA student & former English teacher

Scott
Tutor for All High School Physics levels (including AP1 and APC)
Physics is hard for many reasons, but one of the main ones is that each unit builds off the previous one - it is hard to perform well in Unit 5 if Units 1-4 aren't understood. Within the first 30 minutes of working with a student, I can find where their issues begin, and will devise a plan to catch them up to their current class level from that point. Having been a teacher, tutor, curriculum writer and consultant for first year teachers, I have seen high school physics from every angle. M... Read more
