About Brianna


Bio

I have taught for 15 years from grades 8 - 12th. I enjoy physics and math and really work with my students so that they understand each problem and solution. I am able to explain a concept in many different ways and know where students usually struggle when solving for an answer. I think the most important part of any learning process is reviewing the topics and seeing them in new ways. I do not rush through the material just to get through it. I would rather go at the speed that is...

I have taught for 15 years from grades 8 - 12th. I enjoy physics and math and really work with my students so that they understand each problem and solution. I am able to explain a concept in many different ways and know where students usually struggle when solving for an answer. I think the most important part of any learning process is reviewing the topics and seeing them in new ways. I do not rush through the material just to get through it. I would rather go at the speed that is right for the learner.
I have been a grader for the AP Physics exam the past 4 summers and have seen thousands of student responses. I also write questions for the College Board and their exams and practice units online. I know how to help students navigate through each question and decide what is important and what is not needed. I can help the student craft their answer so that it earns the most points possible for the time given on the exam. Because I have seen so many questions and responses I am able to help students review for the AP Physics exam very well and earn a high score.

I apply math in each physics lesson I teach and know how to ask a question that relates to the math concept in a real way. I enjoy working with examples when teaching math topics.

I have taught physics and physical science for the past 15 years. I also help to write questions for the AP exams and I grade those exams with fellow teachers.

Please contact me if you would like to schedule a lesson dealing with physics or math. I like to work with students and help them understand how wonderful physics and math can be once it is broken apart for them.

Great tutor!

Feel like we were really lucky getting such a great tutor just based off of random reviews. Brianna worked with our son to help him prepare for the AP Physics exam. She kept him super organized and very engaged over several months. Really appreciated how Brianna gave him targeted things to work on between lessons. Our son always looked forward to tutoring sessions and found them fun, relevant and interesting. He felt very well prepared going into exam, and felt confident post exam. Thanks Brianna!!! Have a middle school kid too - hoping you can work with him in several years!

Excellent Tutor

Sessions with Brianna are engaging and have helped my daughter get a better handle on complex physics concepts. Brianna is an asset to any student looking for extra support with AP physics.

Terrific Tutor!

Brianna has been tutoring my daughter in AP Physics for the last 2 months. She has been extremely helpful in preparing my daughter for her classroom exams in AP Physics by giving her the confidence to tackle the exam problems.

Great tutor

Day 1, she was patient with my son and even though he still has along way, we are confident she will get him there! Thanks Brianna!!!! My son is shy, but he said she was easy to talk to and understood what he needed.

Fantastic teacher

My son was completely lost in Physics and had a test the next day. He said after his time with Brianna, he totally understood the topic and felt ready for his test. Thanks Brianna!

great tutor highly recommend

Brianna has given my son confidence when it comes to physics. In just one lesson his attitude changed completely. She makes it easy to understand concepts and gives extra practice problems which has been helpful. He looks forward to weekly tutoring now.

Brianna is a miracle worker

Brianna helped my daughter (HS junior) catch up on some very complicated problem sets for AP physics that I was unable to help her with. She was able to jump right in over Zoom without even looking at the same thing with no problem at all. I can only imagine how much they will accomplish in person. She has a very easy, patient way about her and made this very intimidating subject sound almost easy. SO glad we found her and can't recommend her highly enough!!!

One of a kind AP Physics 1 Tutor

My daughter was struggling in her second semester of AP Physics 1. Her teacher was not conveying the material in a way she could relate, provided assessments that were using AP Physics C questions and not being available to help her after class. I opted to get her a tutor and after interviewing many physics tutors on Wyzant I selected Brianna. I knew we hit the jackpot. Brianna has an amazing understanding of physics and the AP Physics 1 exam. She teaches the material and strategy simultaneously. Though her hourly rate is higher than other tutors she is worth it. Her experience as a writer of AP Physics 1 questions and grading the exam is priceless. She not only teaches content she shows you how to know it for the MCQs and FRQs. That’s key. Brianna is tireless. She is committed to my daughter’s success and is not watching the clock. She wants to make sure you end the session at a natural point and are able to later digest and apply what she taught. She has patience of steel. She not only provides detailed write ups of each lesson as required but she will answer every question my daughter had and converse with me on the Wyzant platform after each lesson until I’ve exhausted all my questions. I can say as an instructor myself that she embodies what a true professional instructor is. She is patient, knowledgeable, conversant, interesting, committed and genuine. My daughter may not get a 5 on the exam. That’s ok! But I know she had the best instruction money can buy. We hired Brianna for over 20 one hour sessions from mid April to exam day. So my recommendation is based on much interaction with Brianna. Thank you Brianna. For everything!

Great Physics Tutor

Brianna responded to our request for a tutor in minutes and promptly came to my daughter’s aid in high school physics. She was clear, concise and patient. We give her our highest regards and will definitely request her in the future!

Great tutor!

Brianna was extremely helpful going over my Physics problems and is knowledgeable on all physics topics. She explained the material in a way that made it easier for me to grasp the concepts. After one session, I am already feeling so much better and will be having more sessions going forward.
