I've spent the past eight years teaching AP Physics, with most of my work focused on mechanics and electricity. I find students often know the equations but struggle to decide which one applies. My lessons involve working through unfamiliar problems, discussing the reasoning behind each step and practising free-response questions. I also spend time on experimental questions, particularly how to interpret graphs and explain sources of error.

Hi! I've been tutoring AP Physics for four years, mainly helping students who find forces and motion a bit confusing. I'm a big fan of using everyday examples, like lifts, bicycles and roller coasters, to explain what's happening. I usually start lessons by looking at whatever caused trouble in class that week. We then work through a few questions together before you try some independently. I particularly enjoy teaching rotational motion.

My background is in electrical engineering, and I've been teaching AP Physics C for six years. I specialise in electricity and magnetism, particularly circuits, electric fields and magnetic forces. Students often find the calculus involved more difficult than the physics itself, so I work carefully through the mathematical steps. I provide structured practice with past AP-style questions and give detailed feedback on written explanations.

Physics made much more sense to me once I started drawing diagrams instead of memorising formulas. That's something I bring into my AP Physics lessons. I've worked with students for three years, mostly on energy, momentum and circular motion. I like using a shared whiteboard during online sessions so we can work through calculations together. If an answer doesn't look right, we'll figure out where things went wrong rather than simply starting again.

Having worked as a secondary school physics teacher for over a decade, I now concentrate on preparing students for AP Physics examinations. My particular interest is experimental physics and data analysis. I teach students how to interpret graphs, evaluate experimental procedures and justify their conclusions using appropriate scientific language. Lessons are planned around individual areas of difficulty, with regular practice in timed examination conditions.

I came into tutoring after working on engineering projects, where I realised how often basic physics turns up in real situations. For the past five years, I've helped AP Physics students tackle topics like torque, gravitational fields and simple harmonic motion. My sessions are fairly relaxed, but I do expect students to explain their thinking. Sometimes I'll deliberately change a question halfway through to see whether they've understood the idea behind it.
