As a professor of physics and an expert in my field, I have guided students at all levels, from K-12 to Ph.D. candidates. Many of my students have excelled in National Olympiads in Physics, securing first-place awards and admission to top-tier colleges. As a student, I consistently achieved a 4.0 GPA and...

I hold a doctorate in theoretical physics and have tutored over 30,000 students in my career, conducting more than 40,000 individual sessions in broadly defined physics and mathematics. As a professor of physics and an expert in my field, I have guided students at all levels, from K-12 to Ph.D. candidates. Many of my students have excelled in National Olympiads in Physics, securing first-place awards and admission to top-tier colleges. As a student, I consistently achieved a 4.0 GPA and earned a perfect 800/800 on the quantitative section of the GRE exam.

I possess an in-depth knowledge of all physics-related subjects, from high school to advanced Ph.D.-level topics. My passion for teaching and spreading knowledge drives me to make learning an engaging and rewarding experience.

In mathematics, I have comprehensive expertise in courses such as Linear Algebra, Calculus, Vector and Tensor Analysis, and Ordinary and Partial Differential Equations. I have also successfully prepared numerous students for High School Algebra, Geometry, Regents Exams, and SAT/ACT preparation.

My primary goal as a tutor is to ensure that students not only understand math and physics but also feel confident and empowered to solve problems independently. I strive to make these subjects approachable, enjoyable, and accessible for all my students.

I am a personable and approachable tutor, easily connecting with individuals from diverse cultures and backgrounds, and I take pride in creating a supportive and encouraging learning environment.

Incredibly knowledgable on multiple advanced topics

Farrooh has helped me with two insanely difficult college physics courses that other tutors seemed lost trying to help with. He is extremely knowledgable in a diverse array of subjects, and has tutored me in 3 classes that I could not find another tutor for. He walks you through the homework at a reasonable pace and makes challenging topics easy to understand. If you are struggling in a very challenging college math or physics course, Farrooh is the best tutor available for those types of courses.

James, 23 lessons with Farrooh

Very patient and encouraging!

I’m grateful that Farrooh was able to meet me and help me last minute. Very patient and maps out every step! I also forgot a lot of math so he was able to work through the background of problems to know how to what areas to work on to be able to tackle on physics problems. I definitely will be working with him again soon!

Knowledgeable and Patient Tutor

Farrooh is a fantastic tutor: he has a wide breadth of math and physics knowledge and is able to distill difficult topics into the core fundamentals, thereby facilitating understanding. I worked with Farrooh for my cosmology and quantum mechanics classes this semester; he's the best physics tutor I have ever encountered. I would highly recommend working with him!

Sophia , 44 lessons with Farrooh

Very knowledgeable and friendly

My son is learning cosmology and Farrooh is so patient and kind to my 10 years old son. My son is really enjoying Farrooh’s lesson online. Farrooh knows how to get attention from my son, he doesn’t usually do well online or zoom. We are so thankful that we met him

Mako, 14 lessons with Farrooh

Very knowledgeable and friendly

My son is learning cosmology and Farrooh is so patient and kind to my 8 years old son. My son is really enjoying Farrooh’s lesson online which is so rare to my son since he didn’t do well last year during Covid online school. But Farrooh knows how to get attention from my son. We are so thankful that we met him

Excellent Tutor

He takes his time in explaining physics concepts that I was stuck on. Very patient with anything that I did not understand. He is very knowledgeable of the physics subject.

Quick Turnaround

He showed me something I couldn't find in the literature that I looked at. He was flexible about doing it online instead of in-person. When we meet in-person, he's always able to solve the GRE problems that I present to him.

Maureen, 25 lessons with Farrooh

Knowledgeable in many physics subjects
