"Hi there! I’m Nate, a PhD student in Theoretical Physics at Dartmouth College with a Bachelor’s degree in Mathematics and Physics from Boston College. Over the past 8 years and 500+ hours of tutoring, I’ve helped students from middle school through college excel in everything from foundational algebra to graduate-level physics.

I specialize in turning challenging material into clear, step-by-step lessons that build confidence and lasting understanding. My approach goes beyond just solving problems. I create tailored lesson plans, custom homework sets, and check-in assignments to reinforce learning and track progress. This structure helps students build intuition, develop practical problem-solving strategies, and consistently improve performance in class and on exams.

I have extensive experience preparing students for math competitions such as AMC 8/10/12 and AIME, where I’ve guided many to qualification and top scores. My contest math instruction covers number theory, combinatorics, advanced geometry, and algebraic problem solving, always with a focus on deep conceptual understanding and speed strategies.

In addition, I tutor high school and college math and physics courses, from calculus and linear algebra to real analysis, mechanics, and quantum physics, as well as standardized test prep (SAT/ACT).

If you’re looking for structured, personalized support that adapts to your goals, I’d love to help you succeed. My rates are flexible, and I’m committed to finding an approach that works best for you." less...
