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.
Yvonne G.

44 Physics lessons

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

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.
