Physics should feel like discovery, not dread.
One-on-one tutoring that hooks students with stories and hands-on experiments first — then builds the steady, exam-ready understanding of Physics 11 and 12 they'll need for university and college admissions.
Teaching philosophy
Light pressure. Full potential.
Discipline — consistent, structured sessions build the study habits that carry students through exams and beyond.
Self-motivation — working through hard problems independently teaches students they can figure things out on their own.
Resilience — just enough pressure, closely monitored, so students learn to push through difficulty without feeling overwhelmed.
Method
How I teach
Stories, real-world hooks, and small hands-on physics experiments — the fun stuff that gets a student to lean in instead of tune out.
Steady, structured work through the BC Physics 11/12 (and AP) curriculum, paced to how fast the student actually comprehends — not a fixed schedule.
Real talk on how grades, coursework and projects translate into college and university admissions — so expectations are set early, not discovered late.
Subjects
What I teach
Full BC curriculum coverage — mechanics, waves, electricity and more — built on real understanding, not memorized formulas. AP-level prep included for students aiming at exam credit.
Solid math support alongside physics — functions, calculus, and the quantitative reasoning that underpins every physics course.
BC Chemistry curriculum and AP Chemistry prep — atomic theory, reactions, stoichiometry, and the concepts that overlap heavily with physics.
BC Computer Science and AP Computer Science A / Principles — programming fundamentals, algorithms, and computational thinking.
Course selection, timelines and application guidance — knowing what admissions committees actually look for.
Pricing
Simple, transparent pricing
One-on-one sessions, any subject above, flexible scheduling week to week.
Your student's entire first week, at half price — a low-pressure way to see if we're a good fit.
Two students of similar age and level, learning together — works out to $35/hr per student.
Testimonials
What parents say
Placeholder quotes for now — real ones coming soon.
"My daughter went from dreading Physics 11 to explaining wave interference to us at dinner. The story-first approach really works."
"He noticed right away that our son needed more of a challenge and adjusted the pace within the first couple sessions."
"Helped us understand exactly what admissions were actually looking for, not just grades."
FAQ
Questions parents ask
Do you teach in person or online?
Both — whichever suits your family. Sessions can also mix formats week to week.
What if my child is falling behind?
I slow down. More story breaks, more hands-on exercises, no judgment — just steady progress at the pace they can actually absorb.
What if my child is ahead and wants more challenge?
I speed up — harder problems, AP-level material, and more independent work sooner.
Do you cover AP Physics?
Yes, alongside BC Physics 11/12 — many students study both together.
Can you help with college and university applications?
Yes — I can help with course selection, timelines, and the application itself.
Can you teach other subjects like math, chemistry, or computer programming?
Physics is my specialty and where I can add the most value. That said, I'm happy to help with the math that comes up alongside physics, and can occasionally support chemistry or computer programming on request — reach out and we can talk through what your student needs.
How do I book a first session?
Fill out the form below. The first week runs at $20/hr, so there's no big commitment to try it out.
