Math And Physics Tutoring With Nick
About
For my last three years at UWM, I worked as a tutor for PASS, the school's tutoring program. I tutored physics and math for classes at UWM. I've also had several students ask me for private tutoring for other classes and standardized tests such as MCAT and DAT.
I have always thought that I have a way better job than any of my friends because I actually love going to work! I get to meet lots of students of different ages and backgrounds, then I get to watch them grow as they become more successful and more confident. While working at PASS, I received tutor training every week and earned tutor certification. Finally, I've tutored more than 100 students and have hundreds of hours of experience.
I have a bachelor's degree in mathematics, so I have a very deep mathematical understanding. Also, I've tutored high school and college algebra as well as calculus.
I have a bachelor's degree in physics and I've been a supplemental instruction leader at PASS for 4 semesters. Thus, I've been sitting in on physics lectures for 4 different semesters, I've done thousands of physics and math problems with students, and I know which topics students tend to struggle with. I also spent 2 years as a Graduate Teaching Assistant in math. Finally, I know how to help students understand every topic covered in physics 1 and 2.
I have flexible hours and can drive wherever is required. My students consistently improve their grades and build confidence in math and physics.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I work through some problems with students and make sure they understand the math or physics behind the problem as well as practice how to do the problem. From my experience, I found that most students get stuck on a concept and they fall behind the class, but they can catch up by going back and learning that concept they got stuck on.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Certified tutor in math and physics. Graduate Teaching Assistant for math department.
What types of students have you worked with?
Mostly college students, from teens to adults.
