My students perform at or above state and national averages on the AP Physics exam. I had the 3rd highest pass rate of any physics teacher in the state of Georgia for the 2015-16 AP Physics 1 exam.

In addition, I am a reader (i.e., grader) of the AP Physics Exam.

I love Excel. It is powerful, flexible, and beautiful. It will do so much more than add a column of figures. If you struggle with formatting a cell, I can help you make Excel do what you want it to do. If you just can't figure out how to make the formula work, I can help you make Excel do what you want it to do. If you need to automate a process and can't seem to figure out VBA, I can help you make Excel do what you want it to do. If you understand Excel everyone in the office will think you are the smartest person they ever met. Call on me for all your Excel needs.

This guy is a magician

After months of struggling in physics class, not understanding any concepts and barely scraping by, I started meeting with Randy to study for the NY state regents exam. In just a matter of weeks, I went from knowing next to nothing about physics to not only doing well in class but also understanding the material. Randy's use of real-world examples and analogies made physics fun and helped me develop what he called a "healthy respect" for the subject instead of a resentment. I have full confidence that I'll do well on the exam thanks to Randy. Also, he once made a penny disappear under a glass of water using his knowledge of physics. *Magic*

Randy makes it make sense

Randy is a teacher who can un-complicate physics for kids who are not STEM-brained. His follow up with a recording and summary of the lesson (useful for reference) was a nice touch. Highly recommend!

Physics C

Randy is great! His tutoring is very helpful. My daughter felt so much better in physics C after Randy's class. She will continue to work with Randy in her senior year.

Randy is an amazing physics tutor!

Randy has been a true superstar in creating clarity and understanding around physics topics. Navigating the intricacies of physics was a significant hurdle for my daughter until we found Randy. His unparalleled ability to break down even the most complex topics became an invaluable asset. What truly sets Randy apart isn't just his profound knowledge, but his patience and dedication to ensuring my daughter fully comprehends every concept. His personalized approach, tailored to her unique learning style, has been transformative. For any parent whose child is seeking clarity in physics, I wholeheartedly recommend Randy. He has been a pivotal figure in my daughter's academic journey.

Anna, 7 lessons with Randy

My son enjoyed your lessons.

My son took AP physics test even though he was not taking an AP class. After having several lessons with Randy, he was comfortable enough to challenge himself going for this very difficult exam. Thank you very much for being patient with my son, even though he was not in a good place for this test initially. I think he actually enjoyed learning high level physics with Randy. Thank you very much.

Friendly Physics

Randy has worked with two of my sons and has been able to connect with both of them to make physics more approachable. He is also very responsive to lesson requests.

Jim, 7 lessons with Randy

Mr. Randy is a great physics tutor!

My son was struggling in AP Physics. And, after taking few tutoring sessions with Randy, he understood the concepts, and his scores in AP physics are improving now. We really thank Mr. Randy for his help, and support that he provide to his students.

Good tutor

Randy is a very knowledgeable and well-organized tutor. He clearly outlined what we had to work on, and did not waste any time in helping us. We will certainly be taking more lessons from him in the future!

Madhurika, 1 lesson with Randy

AP Physics 1

Explained the AP Physics 1 clearly and his teaching method enabled my child to think and learn in an effective way. Has already helped my child improve her grade and we look forward to working with Randy this school year. Appreciate the follow-up messages!

Very Knowledgable and Professional

Randy Has thought my daughter twice so far for AP Physics 1. We are in his weekly schedule. He is very good at Explaining the difficult concepts and very through and simple methods to approach Physics Problem Solvings scenarios. That is first AP Physics 1 that my daughter has to take in High school and she was struggling with her teacher at her high school. Randy is able to explain the most difficult and confusing Scenarios and Problems efficiently and easily done. Thank you for your effort especially that my daughter is very Selective with accepting teachers and We did not have to look further after her first Session with Randy.
