I am a graduate of Colorado State University with a B.S. in Physics and Mathematics. I have been tutoring since my college days and have also taught math and science at the high school level for 4 years. I have been tutoring online for about two years and I love helping students achieve academic success in these subjects, particularly because I feel the critical thinking skills developed in learning math or science are applicable in any career field. In my spare time, I do enjoy thinking about hard physics problems, but also going camping, video games, board games, biking, and spending time with my family.

Believe it or not I used to be someone who hated math and dreaded the courses I took. It was not until I started researching physics topics on my own in high school that I realized how cool math is and could be. Because of this, I am able to understand where most students are coming from on math and am able to tailor instruction based on their particular needs. Having a more practical minded approach to math, I can typically bring in examples from different areas to illustrate a concept, but also find the formal methods enjoyable as well.

As a science, physics lends itself to be understood in a variety of ways and I love utilizing all of them to ensure understanding and conceptualization of a topic. From visualization, familiar real-world examples, and experiments to formal and technical methods, I like to give concrete examples that we can then build on to work with more abstract concepts. This process helps students understand physics in a visceral way as it connects to their everyday experience, but also allows them to think in terms of fundamentals that allows them to approach new problems in meaningful ways. Nothing gives a student more confidence than knowing they have the tools to tackle any problem thrown their way.

I would love to learn what your particular needs and interests are and see how I can help you succeed in your courses. Feel free to contact me with questions or to schedule a

Best Tutor Ever

I cannot say enough good things about working with Jeff. I was drowning in my Physics 2 class before I found Jeff. He single-handedly helped me get top marks in my class. He is always on time, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. He was very patient with me and always adjusted the lessons based on what I needed. I can honestly say that it is due to working with Jeff that I was not stressed out of my mind during this semester. I was always confident that he could help me and he did. I highly recommend Jeff to anyone that needs a tutor!

Aliza, 9 lessons with Jeff

Excellent session

Jeff was excellent at showing what formulas are required in Physics for her problems she was assigned. He was able to tell her how to decipher what formulas go with a particular problem. It was very helpful.

Mary, 10 lessons with Jeff

Knowledgeable and helpful to the student

He helped my son walk through his finals study guide, focusing on problems and theories that my son didn't understand or has struggled to retain knowledge because of approach to problem resolution. Jeff communicates clearly and tries to simplify and will repeat or modify to validate understanding prior to moving on.

Michelle, 2 lessons with Jeff

Knowledgeable and engaging

Jeff has an excellent way of explaining concepts that can others seem very hard to grasp. Very personable and easy to work with. He helped to improve my understanding of precalculus enormously.

Sanjiv, 15 lessons with Jeff

Very knowledgeable and patient

Jeff and I worked on trigonometric identities. We successfully got through a lesson on the double angle trig identities, and it was very insightful. I learned to more efficiently and effectively solve problems, and Jeff made sure to answer all of my questions.

Elizabeth, 2 lessons with Jeff

Understanding and Kind

Helped me review and understand projectile motion. Was very patient throughout whole tutoring session. Helped me get a 92 on my final when I was getting an average of 75 on all of my tests

The best tutor out there!!

Jeff is an amazing tutor and I thoroughly enjoyed working with him. He is great at explaining concepts in a way that is understandable, and was always very patient with me. Lessons were always insightful, fun, and most importantly I always left our sessions understanding the topic much more thoroughly. I think he's the best tutor I've ever worked with!

I would not have passed my Physics class without him

Jeff is a very good teacher and extremely helpful tutor; I am a collage student who struggled with physics (in no small part from my teacher being unaccommodating and difficult to understand) and needed help to understand the topics to pass the class. I and Jeff worked several hours to cover the material and answered every question to the best of our ability. He was very responsive through his emails and used the wyzant whiteboard to better teach me about the different equations. He made sure to go over any question that I got incorrect and broke down how to solve each individual problem; he was able to identify if it was a calculation or a knowledge area and re-teach it. He's extremely dedicated to his students and extremely well organized when scheduling appointments.

Kind and Patient tutor

Jeff helped me so much with my Physics course. We were able to go over the problems I wanted to go over and he knew every topic and every answer to my questions!

Saya, 10 lessons with Jeff

knowledgeable teacher

Very happy with the teaching style. I would highly recommend to the students who are looking for good teacher. We took the AP Calc tution and now planning to add physics too.
