Hello! I currently teach English, physics, and chemistry courses at a small university. I earned a MS in physics in 2011, a PhD in English in 2018, and am currently working on my PhD in physics. I have experience tutoring one-on-one, working with small groups of students, and teaching in a classroom. Past students range from kindergarten to college undergraduates. My areas of expertise are physics, math, and English literature. I am also trained to teach SAT classes and to tutor students in grades K-8 in English and math. I have also tutored students for state tests, including the ELA, math assessment, social studies, and science. In addition to time spent with me, I expect students to do work in between lessons, especially if they are preparing for a specific exam. My teaching methods are centered around helping students gain confidence in themselves as learners and helping students find the learning processes that works best for them.

Excellent command of the material, presents topics well

Liz does a fantastic job breaking physics down for my son, really helping to understand, organize and assimilate the concepts. So far my son has had three sessions and they have all been incredibly productive. Very high marks from us!

Patient and thorough

Great first lesson. Explained topic thoroughly, step by step. My daughter has a better understanding of the material and is looking forward to the next session.

Amazing Tutor!

I needed help in college level physics! Elizabeth was patient and kind. She's very knowledgeable about the information and made sure I fully understood the problem before she continued! I would definitely recommend her!
