Hi! I’m a physics graduate with a passion for making math and science clear, intuitive, and even enjoyable. With years of experience helping students succeed—from high school algebra to college physics—I focus on building deep understanding, not just memorizing formulas.

What I Teach:

AP Physics 1, 2, and C (Mechanics & E&M);

College Physics (algebra- and calculus-based);

Life science-oriented Physics (great for pre-med/nursing students);

MCAT Physics exam prep;

Teaching Approach:

I tailor every session to the student's learning style and pace. I like to make physics as relevant and enjoyable as possible to my students, so this usually means finding or creating custom physics problems for my students' interests.

Very helpful and patient physics tutor

Jeffrey met with my daughter, who is a Freshman in High School, to help work through a difficult physics lab. After the first session my daughter said Jeffry explained physics concepts to her better than anyone else ever has. He was very patient and encouraging with her, making sure she not only understood how to answer the questions but that the larger concepts made sense. He also asked her about her learning style to make sure she was getting the help most needed. My daughter has asked for a standing weekly session with Jeffrey because she found it so helpful. Highly recommend!

The Best Tutor

Jeffrey is so patient and makes physics fun! He is very flexible with his hours and is willing to meet as needed. After just one lesson with him, I was understanding physics 100x more than I was with my professor. Jeffrey also sent me a personalized practice exam in order to help me prepare for the upcoming final. He uses demonstrations and summarizes topics after each lesson which helped the process of learning physics tremendously! I would 100% recommend Jeffrey to anyone who is struggling with physics.

excellent physics teacher!!

HIGHLY recommended Jeffrey. Knowledgeable on the topic and teaches it in a way that makes sense. I enter our lessons highly confused about the topic and leave significantly more confident in the topic.

Physics 1

Jeffrey did a great job helping my son with college physics material and test prep. He is willing to put in the time to help him achieve. He is flexible with scheduling which is a big plus also.

Knowledgeable and very patient

My first meeting with Jeffrey was great. He was knowledgeable, patient and knew how to relate to me. I did not understand physics at all, and this one lesson made a great difference. I understood the lesson and aced my comp check. I can’t wait until my next meeting. Here’s to a graduating senior.

Excellent physics tutor

I was struggling with my college physics homework and understanding the concepts. Jeffrey helped me understand the concepts by giving real life examples and even coming up with practice problems for extra help. He always made sure I understood before moving onto the next problem and is great at complimenting when you get something right. I highly recommend him for anyone who might need some physics tutoring!

Knowledgeable

Jeffrey helped me a lot with a college physics 1 class. He is very knowledgeable and explains very well the concepts and problem solving. He is very punctual and genuinely invested in the student’s progress. I highly recommend him

Best physics tutor

Jeffrey went above and beyond to make sure I understood my physics homework. After working through every problem he would always double check if I had any questions before moving on. Super patient, smart and organized.

Sophia, 6 lessons with Jeffrey

knowledgeable and patient

I've been having trouble with college elementary physics and Jeffrey has been very patient with my lack of mental flexibility. He was willing to work with me at my own pace.
