Get the understanding you need to do well on your physics or math exams!

I earned my Ph.D. in physics at Georgia Tech and tutor physics and math at both the college or high school level.

My tutoring style is 1) to the point, 2) friendly, and 3) fun because I love explaining and solving physics and math problems to those that are eager to learn.

I'll explain the concepts so you gain the context you need to understand the "what" and the "why" surrounding each concept. Context is critical...

Get the understanding you need to do well on your physics or math exams!

I earned my Ph.D. in physics at Georgia Tech and tutor physics and math at both the college or high school level.

My tutoring style is 1) to the point, 2) friendly, and 3) fun because I love explaining and solving physics and math problems to those that are eager to learn.

I'll explain the concepts so you gain the context you need to understand the "what" and the "why" surrounding each concept. Context is critical for solidifying your understanding and to help you remember.

I'll also explain the "how" to setup and work physics/math problems so you learn how to accurately apply your knowledge properly. I am quick when watching you solve a given problem to identify what aspect of the solution needs strengthening so you can progress quickly with good results. This way you can get "unstuck" in all the places that are challenging you during problem solving.

By following this approach to learning you will possess the understanding and confidence you need to do well on your physics and math exams.

I make learning physics and math interesting and fun because I enjoy seeing others understand it, too.
I tutor online nationwide and also in-person at my office conference room in Cumming, GA (exit 14 on GA-400) if you are in the Atlanta area.

Differential Equations,

Differential Equations

Differential equations relate a function to its relevant derivatives and associated functions in a way that can model physical systems mathematically and describe any characteristic rates of change. Therefore, a formal background in advanced physics requires a strong working knowledge of solving many types of differential equations. Differential equations predominate throughout the many branches of physics such as Classical Mechanics, Electricity and Magnetism, Quantum Mechanics, Thermodynamics, etc. I earned my Ph.D. in Physics at the Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech) and am therefore well acquainted with differential equations and their solutions. Each type of differential equation has a particular solution approach to which it is best suited. The way to understand differential equations and their solutions is to be able to 1) identify the type of differential equation to be solved and then 2) know the best mathematical method for solving the given type identified. The type of differential equations that are solvable in closed form that are within the scope of tutoring are the many categories of multi-order linear Ordinary Differential Equations and a few of the simpler Partial Differential Equations. This set of differential equation types comprise most differential equations that will be encountered in a high school or an undergraduate college curriculum. Knowing how to identify these types of differential equations and utilize their associated mathematical solution methods is the key to find their general solution. If boundary conditions are known, a particular solution may also be found for the differential equation as well.

Enthusiastic and easy to understand tutor

Dr. Frank is a great tutor. We started out with the basic keys and concepts of Cal II material and he explained things in a way that have never been taught to me before; allowing me to better understand the subject.

Max, 1 lesson with Frank

Very patient

Dr. Frank helped me to understand each step of the electron. I am definitely taking him again for this year tutor. This year I want to do better in class and I feel that I got the right tutor.

Florie, 5 lessons with Frank

Expert in AP Calculus

The first session in AP Calculus. Quickly understood the problem areas and addressing them methodically. Extremely happy with the session. Looking forward to the rest of them.

Simhadri, 4 lessons with Frank

Great Teacher

My son has had only one class. However, after his class in Physics he was excited about understanding concepts on momentum and tying it to Newtons laws. He thoroughly enjoyed it. We plan on continuing his journey in learning physics with Frank

Ravi, 25 lessons with Frank

Patient and knowledgeable

He took the time to make sure my daughter understood important concepts and assisted with scheduling tutoring on a consistent basis. So blessed and grateful to have found the best fit for her.

NYESHA, 6 lessons with Frank

Awesome Teacher

Dr. Frank is a very nice teacher, he tried to understand my problem with math and created a plan to make me get caught up and then get a week ahead from my class. In only one hour he was able to review previous subjects and teach me various topics. He also showed me in details all of the concepts to make me understand where everything came from. I am definitely seeing him again.

Yashpreet, 5 lessons with Frank

Great teacher !

Frank was excellent with helping my son with his work and then even called me to tell me that my son was very bright. Highly recommend!

Matthew, 1 lesson with Frank

Knowledgeable and patient tutor. Plus he makes calculus problems much easier!!!

He helped me with the calculus involved with the physics i am doing. First, to integrate the sin^x, i had to do that as part of a physics problem. I had NO IDEA how to integrate sin^2 (x), without looking in an integral table! Then Frank here showed me that there is this neat little trig identity that says sin^2 x =( 1-cos 2x)/2 . Integrating this amounts to a simple u substitution!!!! Deffffinitely helps to know that... :-) Then, there was this certain derivative that would be messy if i were to leave it in its current form, because it had a function of the type f (x) = sin(ax) cos(ax) in numerator, and g(x) = sin(bx)cos(bx) in denominator, and to try to take the derivatives, f prime and g prime, to apply LHopital 's rule, is messy. However, because he showed me a table of trig identities and he said to look for a trig identity if I am integrating something (or taking derivative), the trig identity sin 2 theta = 2 cos theta sin theta, made my work easier!! I now feel more comfortable with the calculus now that he filled me in, and calculus is an important part of physics, yes i recommend him!

Volume by Rotation

Excellent knowledge and teaching on the subject of Volume by Rotation. Also, we appreciate Frank’s flexibility and availability. This was very important as I’m taking Multivariate Calculus.

Kevin, 19 lessons with Frank

Frank is amazing.

Frank has helped my daughter understand some complex concepts in physics and math really well. I greatly appreciate his help. Frank had excellent mastery over his subjects which has inspired my daughter to excel in physics.
