I offer tutoring in high school and college-level math and physics. I bring experience as a private SAT tutor, university physics teaching assistant, and guest lecturer. My goal is to empower students with...

Hi, I'm Spencer. I have a B.S. in Physics from Yale and a Ph.D. in Physics from the University of Rochester. I received 5's on AP Calculus AB, AP Calculus BC, AP Physics B (now 1), and AP Physics C. I also received perfect scores on SAT Math, SAT Math IIC (now Level 2), and PSAT Math.

I offer tutoring in high school and college-level math and physics. I bring experience as a private SAT tutor, university physics teaching assistant, and guest lecturer. My goal is to empower students with clear and varied explanations, actionable problem solving strategies, and effective study tips/ habits. More than just good test scores, I want my students to walk away with improved critical thinking skills and learning habits that will serve them in college and/or their careers.

If you are interested in learning more about how I can support you or your students' learning, please send me a message. I would be happy to help.

Approved Subjects

Quantum Physics

Quantum Physics

I have a PhD in physics and my specialization is quantum theory. I have written or co-written 7 papers in the field, including a paper on how energy is conserved in quantum mechanics. I am particularly interested in quantum foundations and interpretations. Having given dozens of talks on quantum throughout my life, I think constantly about how to make it approachable without sacrificing meaning.
