Hello Parents and Students, I have a PhD in Mathematical Physics. I have been teaching and tutoring Physics and Math for over 20 years both at the high school and college level and the reviews from my students say it all. Physics, Math, and teaching are my passions and it's my job to make them fun and digestible to you. Since my PhD is in Mathematical Physics (theoretical), I have been tutoring Algebra, Pre-Calculus, and Calculus and basically any level of Math alongside Physics. I also ...

Without Naz my son would not have been able to make it through high school physics. Her wealth of knowledge in the subject and love for teaching is obvious when she explains the lesson. Her stories take the most complicated lessons and bring them down to an easy to understand level and built on each other as he progressed through the high school physics. She is very easy to reach and extremely understanding of a busy schedule, consistently doing whatever she can to accommodate not only his schedule but the way he learns. Probably one of the nicest women and easiest to work with. We will miss Naz when he completes the course.

Always available. Always willing to adjust her schedule to accommodate my busy schedule. Responds to all forms of communication/messaging in a timely manner. Grades have improved since tutoring sessions began. Great tutor!!!

Dr. Nazanin is a great tutor. I struggle a lot in my college level physics but she has made it so much clearer. Very nice, flexible schedule, and breaks down the information in a very simple way. She has made physics a lot easier for me. I highly recommend her!
Nola G. from Harvey, LA
Nazanin presented math to me in a way that no teacher has ever taken the time to present to me. She takes mathematical problems and turns them into everyday problems so as to help you understand the concepts much easier. Her methods helped me understand the problems and apply them to other questions that I wouldn't have been able to solve otherwise. Overall, I am very happy with our sessions and feel much more confident in the areas of math and physics.
Renee M. from New Orleans, LA
What a lucky find. We contacted Nazanin 2 weeks before my daughter's Physics final. She was very accessible and immediately put my daughter at ease. She explained the concepts so clearly that my daughter actually needed less time with the tutor then we thought. Nazanin gave my daughter the skills and confidence to ace her exam. She is also very sweet and my daughter loved meeting with her.

Naz has a real passion for teaching, and her mastery of physics is quite impressive. I came to her as a non-traditional pre-med student, desperately in need of an A in this class. I meet with her once or twice a week, and she teaches me MCAT tips in addition to the material covered in my class. I just got my first test back, and I got a 97 (30 points above the class average). I can't recommend her enough!
Catherine H. from New Orleans, LA
Nazanin is a truly gifted teacher. Physics has always been a subject I struggle with but after just one session with Nazanin, I had a deeper understanding of basic concepts and a more positive outlook. She is not only brilliant and qualified (with a PhD in Physics), but she is also deeply invested in the success of her students. I could really tell how much she cared about helping me improve. She patiently explained ideas to me until I understood them and quickly adapted her teaching methods to best fit my learning style. Though the content we reviewed only pertained to the Physical Sciences section, I improved my performance in all areas of the MCAT because of Nazanin; she helped me approach the test with a different attitude and more confidence. Her enthusiasm helped me stay motivated through the ups and downs of my study process and the perspective she added gave me peace of mind. I don't know how I would have prepared for the MCAT without her!

To me anybody can be a teacher, but it takes understanding of your subject, the student, and the love to teach to be a great tutor. Nazanin K is one of the greatest tutors I know. She made my daughter emerge like a butterfly emerging out of her cocoon to face the world. My daughter is doing great in physics, and Nazanin K is her tutor.
Ryan C. from New Orleans, LA
Nazanin helped turned my weakest subject for the MCAT not only into a subject that I no longer worried about, but also one I have confidence in. I think what separates her from most teachers is that she finds excellent ways to relate topics back to life experiences. This makes physics more interesting and easier to understand. But above all else, she is very enthusiastic, something that shouldn't be underestimated when tutoring for MCAT topics. Your MCAT studying time can be very stressful and practicing a topic you're weak at can be very frustrating. But Nazanin's attitude makes it so much easier to get through physics!
Stacie T. from New Orleans, LA
Dr. Naz has been a great tutor. After meeting just a few times, I already feel more confident in my ability to handle physics on the MCAT. She is thorough with her explanations and answers all of my questions. She makes me feel comfortable when I am confused and explains topics as many times as I need to grasp the concept.
Gerald M. from New Orleans, LA
Nazanin has been a wonderful physics tutor. I've had others in the New Orleans area - most good, one awful - Naz is in a league of her own. Her grasp of the subject is profound (she holds a PhD in physics). Her tutoring style is to encourage students to learn by doing, while providing lots of encouragement and practical insight. Through her extensive knowledge and teaching experience, Naz has shown me that succeeding in physics is not something out of reach, in fact it can be hugely fun and stimulating. I highly recommend her.
Kevin S. from New Orleans, LA
Naz possesses an unparalleled grasp of the material, and is gifted with the insight and patience required to convey the relevant concepts to her students. It had been a decade since I had taken physics, and I was unable to sufficiently synthesize what I knew into a logical understanding of physics. Naz was instrumental in identifying and correcting errors in my thought processes. Naz’s passion for education and the breadth of her knowledge allowed us to preemptively identify weaknesses and address them both within physics itself, and in its applicability to transdisciplinary problems present on today’s MCAT. The time I spent with Naz was tremendously valuable, and was instrumental in securing a score in the 98th percentile on the MCAT. While my scores would be high enough to tutor for professional MCAT prep companies – I would send my friends and family to Naz. I would recommend Naz without reservation for those interested in improving their knowledge of physics for both coursework and professional entrance exams.

Nazanin helped my college freshman with Physics and it was amazing how her grades leaped and how easy it was for her to understand the course better, we got her late in the semester yet she delivered. I wish we got her earlier. she is teaching her now for Physics II. You get value for your money - knowledgeable, great tutor, easy to work with, easy to reach, reliable and just great!
Jennifer R. from New Orleans, LA
My daughter has been going to Dr K for about 6 months for help with science and math. Dr K is able to explain technical subjects in easy to understand terms. My daughter's grades have improved but equally important so has her interest in math and science!
Jori Z. from New Orleans, LA
Dr. Nazanin tutored our son last year when he was a sophomore. He was preparing for his final exam in geometry. It was a great match. This year, as a junior, he hit a bump in his road in physics. Even though Dr. Nazanin was several states away, she arranged a Skype session. This was successful & effortless. He was looking for a "fresh voice" to teach him the material. His relief & confidence following his tutoring session with Dr. Nazanin was evident on his face. We will turn to Dr. Nazanin for the rest of his high school time & we are so fortunate to have found her!
Carl W. from Morgantown, WV
Dr. Nazanin was able to help me through problems and clarify the troubles I was having in my physics class.
Sabir S. from Flushing, NY
Dr Nazanin has been tutoring my daughter for the past couple of weeks and my daughter is super happy with PHYSICS! Dr Nazanin is definitely a SUPERSTAR!
Malcolm M. from Seal Beach, CA
Nazanin worked with my son on mastering physics questions by sensing the right pace for him and was very energetic! She successfully taught kinematics problems solving for acceleration, speed and time.
