Hello! My name is Neil (Ayush) Sterling, and I graduated Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Science in Physics from Auburn University. Throughout my academic journey, I specialized in core quantitative and physical disciplines, including Classical Mechanics, Electromagnetism, Quantum Mechanics, and higher-level Mathematics through Calculus III and Differential Equations. My strong theoretical background allows me to break down challenging scientific principles into intuitive, clear, and actionable concepts for students of all learning styles.

I have over two years of formal teaching and academic leadership experience, having served as both a Supplemental Instruction Leader and an Undergraduate Teaching Assistant for physics courses at Auburn University. In these roles, I conducted weekly group review sessions, held dedicated one-on-one office hours, and worked closely with university students ranging from freshmen to seniors.

My instruction focuses on conceptual understanding rather than simple memorization—I emphasize step-by-step problem-solving frameworks, graphical visualization, and systematic mathematical modeling to help students build true problem-solving independence. Whether you are a high school student tackling AP Physics and Calculus or a college undergraduate preparing for exams in mechanics and analytical mathematics, I tailor every lesson to fit your specific goals and pace. I am dedicated to creating a patient, engaging environment where students feel confident asking questions and mastering complex material. I look forward to working with you to achieve your academic goals!

Approved Subjects

ACT Math

ACT Math

I earned my B.S. in Physics (Cum Laude, 3.57 GPA) from Auburn University and have extensive experience breaking down quantitative concepts as a Supplemental Instruction Leader and Teaching Assistant. My approach to ACT Math focuses on mastering high-yield topics—algebra, geometry, and trigonometry—while building fast, practical strategy and time-management techniques. I guide students through targeted problem sets to eliminate test anxiety, sharpen problem-solving speed, and consistently reach their target scores.
Calculus

Calculus

I earned my B.S. in Physics (Cum Laude, 3.57 GPA) from Auburn University, where I mastered extensive calculus coursework through differential equations and vector analysis. I served as a Supplemental Instruction Leader and Undergraduate Teaching Assistant at Auburn, helping students break down limits, derivatives, integration techniques, and multivariable concepts. My tutoring focuses on building step-by-step problem-solving strategies, intuitive graphical understanding, and practical exam prep. I customize each lesson to help students build total confidence in AP Calculus and university-level math.
Chemistry

Chemistry

I earned my B.S. in Physics (Cum Laude, 3.57 GPA) from Auburn University, complete with rigorous coursework across physical chemistry, stoichiometry, and atomic structure. As an experienced Supplemental Instruction Leader and TA at Auburn, I specialize in simplifying complex scientific problems into clear, step-by-step solutions. My chemistry tutoring covers fundamental concepts, stoichiometry, solution concentration calculations, gas laws, and chemical bonding. I tailor each lesson to build student confidence, intuitive problem-solving skills, and strong exam performance.
Organic Chemistry

Organic Chemistry

I earned my B.S. in Physics (Cum Laude, 3.57 GPA) from Auburn University, completing extensive coursework in physical sciences and molecular structure. Having served as a Supplemental Instruction Leader and TA at Auburn, I excel at guiding students through challenging scientific methodologies and visual problem-solving. My organic chemistry tutoring focuses on functional group transformations, reaction mechanisms, stereochemistry, and synthesis strategies. I help students develop intuitive pattern recognition and logical step-by-step reasoning to master organic chemistry exams.
Physics

Physics

I earned my B.S. in Physics (Cum Laude, 3.57 GPA) from Auburn University, specializing in Classical Mechanics, Electromagnetism, and Quantum Physics. During my time at Auburn, I served as a Supplemental Instruction Leader and Undergraduate Teaching Assistant, holding weekly review sessions and working directly with students. My tutoring focuses on breaking down complex physical concepts into intuitive, step-by-step problem-solving frameworks. I tailor every session to help high school and university students master homework, conceptual fundamentals, and exam preparation.
Precalculus

Precalculus

I earned my B.S. in Physics (Cum Laude, 3.57 GPA) from Auburn University, where I built a deep foundation in advanced mathematics and problem-solving. Having served as a Supplemental Instruction Leader and Undergraduate Teaching Assistant, I specialize in helping students master trigonometry, functions, transformations, and algebraic concepts. My goal is to help precalculus students build strong analytical habits and confidence so they can excel on exams and easily transition into higher-level calculus.
Quantum Physics

Quantum Physics

I earned my B.S. in Physics (Cum Laude, 3.57 GPA) from Auburn University, where I completed upper-level coursework in Fundamental Quantum Mechanics and Modern Physics. During my undergraduate studies, I served as a Supplemental Instruction Leader and Undergraduate Teaching Assistant, guiding students through complex mathematical and physical concepts. My approach breaks down abstract quantum principles, operator mechanics, and wave functions into intuitive, structured problem-solving steps. I tailor sessions to help students master homework sets, conceptual foundations, and exam preparation.
