Success stories

Real stories from real people

Since 2005, Wyzant has provided a way for people to learn any subject in a way that works for them.

Sophie S.

32 Physics lessons

She didn't just become more confident in physics. She became confident in all her classes, because once she overcame the challenge of physics, she knew she could handle any other class. In the weeks before the AP Physics I exam, when her classmates were anxiously cramming, she was relaxed and confident. Digby actually ended their final session early because she was fully prepared and didn't need additional help.
Dipesh S.

74 Physics lessons

Currently, I am taking Modern Physics this semester and Ali has been helping me continuously. So, if you are really struggling with physics like Electricity and Magnetism, Geometrical Optics, Physical optics, Relativity, Quantum Mechanics, Quantum Theory, Particle Physics, Nuclear Physics, Ali can help you with it. He may make you want to change your major to physics. He just really wants you to understand physics. He will do everything he can to help you achieve.
Steve P.

10 Physics lessons

In addition to helping my son improve his physics knowledge, Jeff also assisted him in preparing for the SAT Physics subject test. Thanks to Jeff, my son improved his physics SAT subject test score from the mid-600s on practice tests to the mid-700s on the actual test in a little more than a month. My son and I can’t speak more highly of Jeff as a physics tutor -- he is outstanding! Thank you Jeff!!!
