Nathan R.

16 lessons

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.
Lalaine C.

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.
Ross z.

81 lessons

She is patient, encouraging, and inspiring! I took AP Calculus B/C last year and she helped me with the class and AP Exam prep. I got a 5 on the AP Calculus B/C exam! This year, I am taking AP Physics C. She makes even the most difficult concepts seem easy. If you like Physics and Calculus, she will increase your love for the subjects tenfold. If you are looking for an AP Calculus/AP Physics tutor, she MUST be your FIRST CHOICE!
