Experienced Math, Chemistry, and Physics Tutor

Adama N.

I am an engineering student at George Mason University with a strong academic background in mathematics, chemistry, and physics. My coursework includes advanced calculus, calculus-based physics, general chemistry, thermodynamics, and other engineering-focused quantitative subjects. This training has given me a solid understanding of both theoretical concepts and practical problem-solving.

I tutor high school and college students in mathematics, chemistry, and physics. My experience includes one-on-one peer tutoring as well as structured academic support sessions. I have worked primarily with students in college-level STEM courses, helping them prepare for exams, complete assignments, and strengthen their conceptual understanding.

My tutoring approach focuses on clarity and structure. I do not rely on memorization-based teaching. Instead, I help students:

Understand the reasoning behind formulas and problem-solving methods

Break complex problems into logical, manageable steps

Identify patterns and underlying principles

Develop independent problem-solving skills

In mathematics, I emphasize step-by-step reasoning and building strong foundations before moving to more advanced applications.
In chemistry, I focus on stoichiometry, thermodynamics, equilibrium, and conceptual understanding rather than simple equation substitution.
In physics, I help students connect equations to physical meaning and real-world interpretation.

My goal is to create a focused and supportive learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and working through challenging material. I aim not only to help students improve their grades, but also to help them build lasting confidence in quantitative subjects.
