I'm Kaveh, and I hold a Ph.D. in Astrophysics from the University of California, Riverside. With a strong background in physics and mathematics, I have dedicated myself to sharing the wonders of the universe and making complex concepts accessible to high school and college students.
My journey into the world of physics began with a passionate high school teacher who ignited my curiosity, and I aim to pass on that same enthusiasm for learning. I firmly believe that physics, when taught effectively, can be both enjoyable and deeply satisfying.
Over the years, I've had the privilege of teaching physics, mathematics, and astronomy in various settings. I've conducted public astronomy and cosmology classes, mentored students in Science Olympiads, served as a teaching assistant for numerous physics courses and labs, and even had the opportunity to instruct GRE Physics subject courses at UCR.
My approach to teaching is rooted in clarity and relatability. I specialize in breaking down complex concepts and mathematical tools, making them understandable through real-life examples. Whether you're grappling with challenging physics problems or seeking to master the algebra and calculus fundamentals, I'm here to guide you.
I'm well-equipped to prepare you for a range of standardized tests in physics, from AP Physics to SAT Physics subject tests and GRE Physics. If you're looking for a knowledgeable, approachable tutor who will patiently help you grasp the topics and conquer problems, I'm here to assist you on your educational journey.
Let's explore the fascinating world of physics together.

Super helpful and efficient tutor

Super helpful, helped me work through my problems very well. I will be using his assistance for all my physics help. We worked through my worksheet and he went step by step

Akash, 3 lessons with Kaveh

Extremely helpful!

This was extremely helpful! He showed me how to think like an astrophysicist. We covered topics relevant to the assignment that I was completing and other topics that gave me a more sophisticated understanding of the questions.

Darian, 5 lessons with Kaveh

Great experience

Very knowledgeable and collaborative. Was able to understand my issues and work through them with me. Really enjoyed my lesson. More than likely will use again

Taylor, 2 lessons with Kaveh

patient and persistent

Kaveh found the textbook that my professor is using to teach us in our Physics 3 class and prepared himself well so he could teach me important concepts of physics that I was struggling with. He is patient and good at explaining things.

Tonya, 12 lessons with Kaveh

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

Kaveh helped with physics and discrete mathematics. His understanding of physics is great and he was able to engage and make me curious about the subject. Kaveh is very patient and easy to communicate with.

Ram, 8 lessons with Kaveh

Helpful, knowledgable and patient

Kaveh explained each question in great depth step by step, he also and made sure I was understanding the material along the way. I plan to schedule more sessions with him soon!

Imaan, 6 lessons with Kaveh

Astronomy of the Stars and Galaxy.

He was very detailed about the stars and universe and the phases of moon and helped me understand the science labs and so far I am receiving an A in my class. He explained my upcoming science labs and how to perform them.

Kathy, 1 lesson with Kaveh

Highly knowledgeable tutor.

Needed last minute help with a physics problem set and he really helped me pull through and submit it on time! It was much easier to understand the concepts as well.

Darin, 1 lesson with Kaveh

Great tutor

He helped with showing me how to solve various problems relating to physics using Newton's 2nd law of motion. Very patient and thorough explanation. Highly reccomended

Zahra, 4 lessons with Kaveh

very understanding

My daughter was running late not able to start lesson on time but Kaveh made his busy schedule available for her. Appreciate your flexibility which could be very crucial sometime. He also sent us a long note of what was done in a class. I know there is a recording to see but having notes like this would be very helpful, too. I appreciate you spent time to write notes for her.
