My name is Oleg. I have a double B.S. in Physics and Applied Mathematics and a Ph.D. in Biophysics. I have worked as a university professor for 20 years at major universities in the US. I have been teaching courses as well as tutoring and mentoring students one-on-one in the US for over 30 years. I have taught classes in Statistics, Biochemistry, Biology, Physical Chemistry and experimental science, and mentored and tutored in Math, Physics and Biology, as well as in science. I have taught in large classes of over 100 students as well as one-on-one, in person and online/remotely. Over the years, since I was an undergraduate myself in the late 1980s/early 1990s, I have tutored and mentored many students at different levels: high school, undergraduates, graduate school as well as postdoctoral trainees. I am fully bilingual, and I can tutor equally well in English and in Russian.

If you have me as your tutor, you will realize that I am passionate about tutoring, and I never lose track of the end goal you have, be it to pass an exam, learn a difficult topic, or just improve your basic understanding and the knowledge of the subject. Individualized approach is, of course, the key to success in tutoring. I will tailor and adjust my tutoring to your existing level of knowledge and your best way of learning. The spark of understanding that you will have and your success will be my biggest rewards. Whatever your goal is, I want to ensure that the knowledge gained from my tutoring will be usable and lasting.

Approved Subjects

ACT Math

ACT Math

I have a B.S. in Applied Mathematics and Physics and a Ph.D. in Biophysics. I have been trained at Harvard and worked as a university Professor at major US Universities for 20 years, teaching classes over 100 students, small classes and individually. I have authored many manuscripts using applied mathematics. Math is my life-long passion. I use highly individualized approach in tutoring Math. I am highly familiar with the Math part of the ACT. As speed is a factor in this exam, I train not only how to answer questions correctly, but also how to optimize the thought process to do this FAST!
ACT Science

ACT Science

I have worked as a Professor in major US universities for 20 years, running a research laboratory and teaching. I have authored well over 100 peer-reviewed manuscripts. I know science in and out, and I live science every day. I have taught and tutored formally and informally for 30+ years. For those finding ACT science hard: I will do my best to show you that science is grounded in common sense and teach you how you can organize and direct your thought process for success in your exams and far beyond.
Algebra 2

Algebra 2

I have a B.S. in Applied Mathematics and Physics and a Ph.D. in Biophysics. I have been trained at Harvard. I worked as a university Professor for 20 years. Math is my passion, and teaching it is a pleasure. Tutoring Algebra 2 involves teaching how to apply a few basic concepts in a right way and not to overcomplicate matters. One needs to use a correct approach to each problem to save valuable time. I will teach you how to find it.
Biology

Biology

I have worked as a university professor at major US universities for the last 20 years. I have a Ph.D. in Biophysics and, as you can guess, my expertise is in the intersection of Biology and Physics. Biology is a beautiful science that describes life in scientific terms. There are many biological terms (many are also chemical), but once the meaning and the logic behind the terms become clear, the pieces of the puzzle will come together. I will help you assemble this puzzle and teach you how to independently navigate the vast and beautiful world of biology.
Calculus

Calculus

I have a B.S. in Applied Mathematics and Physics and a Ph.D. in Biophysics. I have been trained at Harvard and worked as a university Professor at major US Universities for 20 years, teaching classes over 100 students, small classes and individually. I have authored many manuscripts using applied mathematics. Math is my life-long passion. I use highly individualized approach in tutoring math in general and calculus in particular. Understanding a correct thought process and how to break down a problem into simpler problems or concepts is what I strive to give to my students. Calculus is based on a few concepts, so essentially no memorization is needed, mostly deductive reasoning, which is what I will teach you.
Physics

Physics

I have worked as a Professor in major US universities for the last 20 years, I have a B.S. in Physics and Applied Mathematics and a Ph.D. in Biophysics. Physics and Math are my two scientific passions, and I am passionate about teaching them. I have over 30 years of formal teaching and tutoring experience, in different setting and class sizes, as well as individual. In one-on-one tutoring, I adjust my approach to the student academic strength and needs. Physics becomes fun when the meaning behind the formula is understood.
SAT Math

SAT Math

I have a B.S. in Applied Mathematics and Physics and a Ph.D. in Biophysics. I have been trained at Harvard. worked as a university Professor for 20 years. Math is my passion, and teaching it is a pleasure. Tutoring for SAT Math involves teaching the students how to answer the questions correctly and FAST. One needs to use a correct approach to each problem to save valuable time. I will teach you how to find it.
