I help students succeed across physics and mathematics—from standardized test preparation to college coursework and summer skill-building.
Whether you are preparing for the SAT Math section, improving your ACT Math or Science score, taking college math or physics classes over the summer, or studying for teacher certification exams such as the Praxis, I tailor lessons to your goals and learning style.
My approach is centered on identifying gaps, building confidence, and developing efficient problem-solving strategies that students can carry into future courses and exams. For students aiming for top scores, I focus on strengthening advanced reasoning and test execution. For students rebuilding fundamentals, I provide clear explanations and structured practice that leads to steady progress.
I also work with college students in physics and mathematics courses who want support staying ahead, catching up, or preparing for upcoming exams.
Subjects I commonly help with include:
SAT Math
ACT Math
ACT Science
AP Physics review and concepts
College physics
Algebra through Calculus
Praxis math preparation
General math support and summer coursework
If you want focused instruction, practical strategies, and measurable progress, I’d be happy to help you reach your goals this summer.

Approved Subjects

Algebra 1

Algebra 1

I have taught Algebra to middle school and high school students at a variety of levels for many years.
Algebra 2

Algebra 2

Algebra 2 is a bit of a mess and can include many distinct topics including conic sections, rational expressions, vectors, matrices, trigonometry, logarithms, probability, and complex numbers. I've taught Algebra 2 as a mathematical modeling course, and I've also taught it as a practical course with a focus on applications of topics. I can guide any student through these topics, as I have done so before.
Calculus

Calculus

I’m an experienced math teacher with an engineering background who specializes in helping students succeed in AP Calculus, honors coursework, and college-level calculus. Calculus is one of the most important subjects in mathematics because it forms the foundation of physics, engineering, economics, and higher-level quantitative work. While the core ideas are elegant, many students become overwhelmed by the pace, notation, and multi-step problem solving required in class. I help students build true understanding—not just memorize procedures. My sessions focus on recognizing patterns, mastering problem-solving strategies, and developing the confidence to tackle unfamiliar questions independently. With the patience of an experienced teacher and the practical mindset of an engineer, I help students move beyond confusion and perform at a high level on exams, coursework, and future STEM classes.
Computer Science

Computer Science

Beyond the classes I took relating to computer science I got through my engineering education, I spent 10 years as a software developer. I've programmed in C, C++, Java, JavaScript, Python and Perl. I've taught introductory level classes to programming using Javascirpt, and Python, and an intro to engineering using Arduinos.
Geometry

Geometry

For some, geometry comes as a great relief from algebra, because everything has a drawing. For many, geometry is a difficult challenge because it's the first math where you are expected to make proofs, which means to truly do math for the first time in your life. It requires a blend of logical and creative thinking. I love to help people make that leap - it's the best part about teaching geometry.
Physics

Physics

I’m a certified teacher with 15+ years of classroom experience teaching math and science, including AP Physics and advanced high school coursework. I specialize in helping students who are capable but frustrated—students who understand examples once explained, yet struggle to solve unfamiliar problems independently. Success in physics requires more than memorizing formulas. Students must learn how to translate real-world situations into mathematical models, organize information clearly, and apply concepts with confidence. This is the skill that often separates struggling students from top performers. I help students develop that skill step-by-step so they can approach difficult problems independently, not just copy procedures. My sessions focus on deep understanding, efficient problem-solving, and building the confidence needed for tests, coursework, and long-term success. Whether you're preparing for AP Physics, honors physics, or college-level coursework, I provide clear instruction, high standards, and practical strategies that get results.
Precalculus

Precalculus

I’m an experienced math teacher with an engineering background who specializes in helping students succeed in AP Precalculus and honors coursework. Precalculus is the foundation for Calculus, one of the most important subjects in mathematics because it forms the foundation of physics, engineering, economics, and higher-level quantitative work. Many students struggle to make the jump from Algebra, and can become overwhelmed by the pace, notation, and multi-step problem solving required in class. I help students build true understanding—not just memorize procedures. My sessions focus on recognizing patterns, mastering problem-solving strategies, and developing the confidence to tackle unfamiliar questions independently. With the patience of an experienced teacher and the practical mindset of an engineer, I help students move beyond confusion and perform at a high level on exams, coursework, and future STEM classes.
SAT Math

SAT Math

I’m a certified math teacher with years of experience helping students prepare effectively for the SAT Math section. I work with students across the score range—from those building foundational skills to high-achieving students targeting top-percentile results. Success on the SAT requires more than knowing the math. Students must also learn pacing, question recognition, strategic decision-making, utilizing Desmos, and how to avoid common traps under timed conditions. My tutoring combines targeted skill review with proven test strategies so students improve efficiently and perform confidently on exam day. Sessions are customized to each student’s starting point, goals, and timeline. Whether you're aiming to break a specific score threshold, reach 700+, or maximize scholarship and admissions opportunities, I provide structured, results-focused preparation designed to raise scores and reduce stress.

Great tutor!

He helped my daughter with math SAT prep. Along with walking her through the SAT questions she found problematic, he boosted her confidence with some kind words that were much appreciated. I think she needed the confidence boost even more than the math help. Thanks.

Michael, 14 lessons with Chad

Patient and knowledgeable tutor

Chad is very knowledgeable, professional and patient tutor. He sends a summary of each class after session. He helps my kids to complete their assignments and understand the topics.

Anahit, 7 lessons with Chad

Excellent Algebra Tutor

Chad was so patient, which really put my son at ease. I appreciated how he kept explaining things in different ways until it finally clicked. We’re so grateful for his help and will definitely be reaching out to him again.
