Thomas W.

Hello, my name is Tom! I'm currently studying a master's degree in Optics (subfield of physics) at a prestigious German university (Friedrich Schiller Universität Jena, ranked #7 in the world for Optics CWUR rankings). I am an expert in physics and applications to international universities. I hold a US GPA of 3.8, have achieved many scholarships for academic merit, and have two years of classroom and one-on-one teaching experience in STEM fields, including physics. Richard Feynman, often designated the smartest man in the world, famously said regarding physics: "You ask me if an ordinary person—by studying hard—would get to be able to imagine these things like I imagine. Of course. I was an ordinary person who studied hard. There's no miracle people." This is the philosophy that I have always taught, that anyone can learn physics - and even excel at it with the right guidance. My method as a teacher is not to force students to memorise endless formulas, but to understand the underlying physical reasoning behind these concepts, from which the formulas come naturally. Students often struggle because physics seems overwhelming, but like any complex task, it becomes manageable and easy to learn once you understand the bigger picture. I offer: - Online after-school tutoring for physics - Online careers advice and university application advice - 24/7 Email help for homework and assignments (I won't give away the answers, rather help them solve it themselves) - Scientific writing help First lesson half price! Come to me and realise that your child never struggled with physics; they have just never heard it right!
