Throughout my teaching career, I have worked with students aged 14 to 18 in classroom settings and have also tutored individuals of various ages in personalized environments.

Having lived overseas for nine years, I bring a global perspective to my teaching and enjoy connecting with students from diverse backgrounds. Additionally, I am fluent in Japanese, which allows me to support bilingual learners when needed.

My tutoring approach is personalized and results-driven. I focus on adapting lessons to each student’s unique learning style, building their confidence, and making science engaging and relevant to real-world applications. Over the years, I have helped students improve their grades, master challenging topics, and excel on exams such as AP Physics, AP Chemistry, and SAT Subject Tests.

Whether you need help with homework, test preparation, or a deeper understanding of scientific concepts, my aim is to make learning clear, approachable, and enjoyable. My goal is to help every student feel confident and achieve success in science.

Approved Subjects

Algebra 1

Algebra 1

As a high school physics and engineering teacher, I integrate algebra into my daily lessons and classroom activities. Each day, I explore complex topics such as motion, energy, and forces, where algebraic equations play a crucial role in problem-solving. For instance, I often guide my students through various real-world applications, such as calculating the trajectory of projectiles or analyzing the efficiency of different engineering designs. By emphasizing the connections between algebra and practical applications, I help students develop a deeper understanding of both mathematical concepts and their relevance in the fields of physics and engineering.

Clear and knowledgeable explanations

John B. helped me understand the physics topics of power, work, force, momentum and their relationships in just one session. He had interesting stories that illustrated these concepts clearly. I had thought that work was work but he explained that there are different perspectives. For example, a person pushing on a wall that does not move, does no work from the perspective of the wall, but they DO do work from the perspective of their body's muscles. This will really help me in my physics class. I highly recommend John B. as a physics tutor.
