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
Paul
HS French Teacher for 13 years, Straight A Math student
Hello there! I have plenty of skills to offer! I taught high school French for 13 of the last 20 years and have family and friends that I visit every year in Belgium and France. So, French is my best subject to tutor. However, I also have a bachelors degree in Russian. I'm a little rusty, but it's still all up there. I also received straight A's in Math throughout school. Algebra and Geometry would be subjects I would be able to tutor - I don't want to go higher just because I may be r... Read more
