About Robert


Bio

I have been a high school physics teacher for 22 years. Over that time, I have taught many different levels including Conceptual Physics, General Physics, AP Physics C, AP Physics 1 and AP Physics 2. I still very much enjoy helping students improve and be successful in their physics journey.

I began teaching AP physics 1 and 2 in 2015. My students have had pass rates as high as a 100% in AP physics 2 and 85% in AP physics 1, which are both significantly higher than global averages. I...

I have been a high school physics teacher for 22 years. Over that time, I have taught many different levels including Conceptual Physics, General Physics, AP Physics C, AP Physics 1 and AP Physics 2. I still very much enjoy helping students improve and be successful in their physics journey.

I began teaching AP physics 1 and 2 in 2015. My students have had pass rates as high as a 100% in AP physics 2 and 85% in AP physics 1, which are both significantly higher than global averages. I have graded free response questions as an AP reader during the summer for the past 5 summers, and this year I was invited to be a table leader. My experience at the AP reading has proven to be very valuable in helping my students better prepare for the AP exam. I have helped many college level students with Physics 1 and Physics 2. It has been about ten years since I taught AP physics C, so my calculus is a little rusty. I can figure out most of the calculus parts and can definitely help with the physics.

I believe my background makes me especially qualified to help students prepare for the AP Physics 1 and 2 exams. Feel free to reach out if you would like any more information or have questions.

I started my career teaching physics in 2002. I have taught AP Physics 1 since 2015 and taught AP 2 since 2018. I have also been an AP reader, grading free response questions since 2020. I have tutored hundreds of students on a different site this last year. My current rating is a 4.89 out of 5. Helping kids be successful on the AP exam is something I still very much enjoy.

Wonderful and Dedicated Tutor!

Robert has been a great AP Physics 1 tutor for my son. After a last minute request for 2 back to back lessons in one week, my son was able to grasp the content he was struggling with and get an A in both his quiz and test. Robert asks for the topics to be reviewed in advance so that he can come prepared. He also comes with his own sample questions for review if needed. Robert is able to break down complex topics into more simplified and easy to understand material. My son is much more motivated and has gained confidence that he can do well in AP Physics 1. He is looking forward to weekly lessons until the end of the semester.

Excellent AP Physics Teacher/Tutor

Robert is a very kind and patient tutor who genuinely cares for his students. My son had a couple of other physics tutors throughout his junior year. Despite this, he still had a 75 in AP Physics because his teacher does not teach and could not find a tutor that was very effective. For perspective, my son has a 1550 on his latest SAT and a 4.3 GPA - currently has all A's and a 79 in AP Physics (that should say something). We only had Robert for three sessions, but he received two A's on his last three assignments and a solid B on his performance final since he started working with Robert. He just took his AP exam and said he felt really good about it (won't find out until July). Robert essentially had to teach him all of AP Physics in three weeks. Really wish we found him sooner. Thank you, Robert, for all your help!!

Knowledgable and well-paced tutor.

We hired Robert for my son who was taking AP Physics 1. His teacher at school was very slow-paced and we were worried they would not finish the syllabus in time. Robert is a very good choice for anyone who wants to improve their physics skills. He is very well informed on both the subject material and test format and my son's performance and confidence both improved throughout the course of lessons with him. I particularly like how he was able to match my son's pace, as previous tutors would go to slowly or teach at too basic of a level. Thank you Robert for all your help this year!

Knowledgeable and patient tutor.

Robert C. was incredibly helpful in guiding me through Physics 1. He broke down complex concepts like torque, angular momentum, and projectile motion in a way that made them much easier to understand. He always made sure I understood each step before moving on, and he was very patient, even when I struggled. Thanks to his support, I felt much more confident going into my final exam. I highly recommend Robert to any student looking for a tutor who is both knowledgeable and dedicated.

Robert is really good AP Physics teacher. He is very patient, attentive, breaks problem into parts and explains step by step. My 11th grader daughter was struggling a lot before him. Now she is not that stress anymore. So satisfied
