Harvard & Yale grad for math and science tutoring
I majored in math and physics at Yale, and received a PhD in statistical physics at Harvard. I have also worked in scientific areas throughout my career. As such, I have very deep expertise in math and science, and I enjoy passing that on to students.
While I am new to Wyzant, I am not new to tutoring and teaching. I first began tutoring 30 years ago and have continued to do so over the years, with a mixture of formalized tutoring, classroom teaching, and job-based training. I enjoy...

Patient Tutor and Explained Well
Took time to explain the material and go over the questions I had to make sure I thoroughly understood what he was teaching me. Was very knowledgable and was able to teach me the most advanced topics.

Very helpful review just prior to my test. covered the basics required for the test and cleared up a lot of questions I had. Teaches in a manner that makes it easy to learn and simple to understand.

Phenomenal Tutor
Raphael's tutoring sessions were a game-changer for my daughter. She went from being confused by several physics concepts she was learning in high school to being "crystal clear" (her words) and confident on those topics. She said that, because he's just a nice and patient person, the lessons were quite enjoyable, too. We could not recommend this tutor more highly!

Really enjoyed my session!
Raphael and I discussed the density of a nucleus and of an atom. Learning was very easy, and I was able to finish problems very quickly with him! I am very happy with my experience. Thanks Raphael!

Great teacher
Raphael was patient with my daughter and broke down the concepts of AP Physics C in an understandable way. He has been a savior.
