Peter found common ground with my son through baseball and used that connection to make physics not just understandable, but enjoyable. He truly embodies what it means to be an outstanding physics teacher. I highly recommend Peter Moore to any parent who wants their child to gain a clear understanding of physics and excel -- especially when it comes time to take the AP Physics exam at the end of the year!" Yvonne G, mother to AP Physics Student,10th Grade
Nathan R.

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.

He also introduced to me the structure and concept of the AP Physics C Exam and began to instruct me on how to approach studying for it later on. Additionally, he seems to have a very thorough understanding of the exam itself as well as the various review books published for it. Overall the lesson was good and I look forward to taking my AP Physics course more.
