Josh Doctor of Physical Therapy

Joshua N.

I earned my Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) through Ithaca College's accelerated DPT program, where I developed a strong foundation in anatomy, physiology, biomechanics, and evidence-based practice. My educational background has equipped me with the skills to explain complex scientific concepts in a way that is engaging and easy to understand.
I have experience providing one-on-one tutoring and mentoring to students ranging from middle school through the college level, primarily in science-related subjects. My teaching experience includes volunteer tutoring as well as working directly with students to help them build confidence, strengthen their understanding of course material, and develop effective study strategies. I tailor each session to the individual student's learning style, using interactive explanations, real-world examples, and guided problem-solving to promote long-term understanding rather than memorization.
In addition to tutoring, I currently practice as a treating physical therapist, where patient education is a central part of my role. Every day, I teach individuals of all ages about anatomy, movement, injury recovery, and healthy habits, adapting my communication style to meet each person's needs. This clinical experience has further strengthened my ability to educate, motivate, and connect with learners from diverse backgrounds.
