About Anthony


Bio

I am an individual and small-group tutor with a PhD in Astrophysics from Rutgers University. I received my BS from Florida State University, where I double-majored in Physics and Applied & Computational Mathematics, graduating magna cum laude (3.75 GPA) with honors. I offer tutoring to high school and college students in physics (all levels), astronomy (all levels), math (up to Calculus III), programming (Python), and data analysis.

I am an individual and small-group tutor with a PhD in Astrophysics from Rutgers University. I received my BS from Florida State University, where I double-majored in Physics and Applied & Computational Mathematics, graduating magna cum laude (3.75 GPA) with honors. I offer tutoring to high school and college students in physics (all levels), astronomy (all levels), math (up to Calculus III), programming (Python), and data analysis.

I have worked with over 250 students over two years of teaching and tutoring, primarily for introductory undergraduate physics courses for non-majors as well as some advanced undergraduate astronomy courses. I have spent almost all of my time working with students either 1-on-1 or in very small groups, the environment I enjoy the most. Beyond my work in the classroom, I have also spent 6 years mentoring undergraduate research students—mostly non-physics majors with little prior physics or coding experience—helping them solve real physics, programming, and data analysis problems in order to successfully complete their research projects.

Physics and math problem-solving skills are often not very intuitive. No matter one's level of experience, figuring out where to start is typically the hardest part. Challenges with understanding and setting up a problem cause many, if not most, of the major mistakes I've seen. My goal in tutoring is to focus on helping you gain a real understanding of the concepts you are learning, the reasons behind the steps we take, and how to analyze and approach problem-solving in general, rather than simply trying to memorize a few approaches to very specific types of problems.

I love finding the best way of explaining difficult physics concepts in the terms that make the most sense to *you*. I find real joy helping students overcome fears and roadblocks, build more confidence, and achieve academic goals. I'd love to work with you!

I have a PhD in astrophysics from Rutgers University. I served as a teaching assistant for two advanced undergraduate astronomy courses (as well as other physics courses). I also mentored several undergraduate students in their very first research projects in astronomy, leading to successful presentations of their work at the conclusion of the projects.
