I am a recent graduate of Hope International University. I received my Bachelor of Science in Human Development with a focus on counseling and biblical studies. I am applying for Graduate School this summer, so I can further my education in Psychology and Cultural Anthropology. My passion is listening to and working with children; and, I hope to become the kind of therapist that families, including our soldiers and veterans, will come to when they need help. While I have been working on my education, I have spent the last several years as a para-educator teaching children of immigrants in California for the "No Child Left Behind" program at an elementary school. I also edit and tutor writing composition for individual clients in middle school and high school using APA and MLA formats, focusing on good research methods, proper citing, and correct bibliography and reference pages. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about English, Math, and test prep. I've always felt a great joy when my students experience their "aha" moment. They have just received something that belongs to them for the rest of their lives - knowledge. I am a firm proponent of education, believing it to be the key to a high quality of life; and, I try to impart this appreciation to my students by being a good role model, since I am also a student. I teach good work ethics, responsibility, and accountability so my students will not only gain an education, they will be productive and dependable adults one day. I love spending time with my teenager, swimming, drawing, volunteering for Feed The Children and Save Our Beaches. One of our goals is to create the best mac 'n cheese "known to man."

Graduate Test Prep Tutor • +30 Subjects

I received my B.S. in Biology from Villanova University in May of 2012. Throughout my four years of undergraduate college, I tutored hundreds of students in a variety of subjects. A month after my graduation from Villanova, I was on a plane to California to start work on my Master's degree. I studied Entomology at the University of California, Davis and conducted a field research project that investigated how pesticides affect honey bee behavior. I also worked as a teaching assistant at Davis and co-created and taught a course about current issues related to beekeeping and bee conservation.I finished my M.S.in Entomology at the beginning of 2015. I have a sincere love of learning and find great joy in helping others achieve their academic goals. I believe a teacher must be patient with their students and truly understand what issues they face in order to effectively communicate with them. I strive to cultivate a positive teaching environment that inspires my students with the same passion for learning that I have.I have recently focused on tutoring standardized tests including the GRE, SAT and ACT. I most enjoy tutoring the GRE because of the complexity of its questions. I love teaching students how to see through the tests tricks and pitfalls, while also analyzing the subtle clues provided by the questions. Other subjects that I have experience tutoring include math up to calculus, biology, statistics, essay composition, chemistry and physics.

I have completed my Bachelor's degree from the University of Florida in both Biology and Business Administration. I currently love to tutor all students in numerous Mathematics and Science subjects as I want to spark that same passion that I have for these subjects. I have significant mastery of mathematics including pre-calculus, algebra 1/2, trigonometry, geometry, statistics, finite math, college level algebra, business math, and quantitative reasoning, etc. I have significant experience in science subjects including biology, chemistry, physics, anatomy, organic chemistry, and biochemistry as well.I love to help students use their logic and problem-solving skills in order to advance their learning ability to a higher degree more efficiently. While learning how to apply these skills in real life situations using both math and science topics, respectively. I like to tailor lesson plans and study strategies to that particular student (as we are all unique) to ensure each student understands the concepts completely.I love to help any and all students ranging from the inquisitive mind to a struggling student trying to achieve an A+ in class!

Joshua

Algebra Tutor • +17 Subjects

I began my college education at Portland Community College where I studied Mathematics, Physics and engineering prerequisite classes such as Statics and Dynamics. While at PCC I would volunteer in the study hall by helping fellow students with their math homework. From PCC I transferred to Portland State University. I am currently working on my bachelor's of science in mechanical engineering degree. I currently tutor Algebra 1 through 4, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, Calculus 1 and Physics. My favorite subject to tutor is Calculus 1 because that is where I find mathematics to become very interesting.I believe that each student has their own unique approach to learning new subjects. It is the obligation of the tutor to shape their method of teaching around the student's unique set of strengths and weaknesses. By discovering where a student has a gap of understanding in a subject and helping the student to bridge that gap, a foundation can be created in order to progress to the next level of a subject.Outside of school I like to Play and record music at home, read books and work in the garden.

Frequently Asked Questions

Elementary particle physics deals with concepts that can't be directly observed, making visualization challenging. Tutors help by breaking down these abstractions into relatable analogies, working through mathematical representations, and connecting theory to experimental evidence. Rather than memorizing definitions, personalized tutoring focuses on building intuition for why particles behave the way they do—exploring the logic behind quantum mechanics and the Standard Model so concepts click rather than just get memorized.

Mathematics is the language of particle physics. You'll encounter differential equations, linear algebra, complex numbers, and probabilistic thinking—all essential for understanding phenomena like superposition and entanglement. If your math foundation needs reinforcement, tutors can address specific gaps while teaching the physics concepts simultaneously. They help you see how the math connects to physical meaning, not just how to solve equations, making advanced topics more accessible.

Particle physics is ultimately an experimental science. Tutors help you understand not just what experiments show, but how we know what we know—exploring how particle detectors work, what collision data actually represents, and how evidence supports theoretical predictions. They can walk through landmark experiments (like the Higgs discovery) and help you interpret real data, building your ability to think like a physicist rather than just absorbing isolated facts about particles.

Yes. Tutors work with students across different curricula—from introductory physics courses covering particle basics to advanced undergraduate and graduate-level particle physics. They're familiar with what different programs emphasize, whether that's the Standard Model, quantum field theory, symmetries, or experimental methods. Personalized instruction means tutoring aligns with your specific course requirements, helping you master both conceptual understanding and problem-solving skills needed for exams and projects.

Particle physics problems require both conceptual clarity and strong problem-solving strategy. Tutors teach you how to identify what's being asked, select the right framework or equation, and work through calculations systematically—all while understanding the physics behind each step. Rather than rushing to answers, tutoring emphasizes checking your reasoning, recognizing which approaches apply to similar problems, and developing confidence in tackling unfamiliar scenarios. This builds transferable skills that help with homework, problem sets, and exams.

An effective particle physics tutor combines deep subject knowledge with the ability to explain complex ideas clearly. They should be able to connect theory to experiments, adapt explanations to your learning style, and ask questions that help you think through problems independently. Look for someone who gets excited about the subject matter and has experience teaching at your level—whether that's high school physics, undergraduate courses, or graduate seminars. The best tutors help you develop scientific reasoning, not just memorize particle names and formulas.

With personalized tutoring, students typically develop stronger conceptual understanding of particle interactions, improve their ability to work through complex problems, and gain confidence tackling unfamiliar concepts. You can expect better exam performance, deeper engagement with lab work or research, and the ability to apply particle physics principles to new situations. Many students also develop a more sophisticated appreciation for how science actually works—understanding the experimental and theoretical foundations beneath the theory, which serves them well in any STEM field.
