SCIENCE TUTOR NYC
Chemistry, Physics, Biology & Earth Science Tutoring
Need a science tutor in NYC? I specialize in Chemistry, Physics, Biology, and Earth Science tutoring for middle and high school students. Expert Regents exam preparation with a 95% success rate.
Why Science Classes Feel So Hard
Science combines math, reading, and abstract thinking. Here are the REAL struggles students face - and my solutions:
Memorization Overload - Too Much to Remember
Biology = 50 vocab terms per chapter. Chemistry = formulas, element names, reaction types. Physics = equations. Students try to memorize everything, remember nothing.
I teach UNDERSTANDING over memorization. When you understand HOW things work, you don't need to memorize. We use patterns, analogies, and connections. Knowledge sticks naturally.
Lab Reports & Scientific Writing Confusion
Students don't know what a hypothesis is, how to analyze data, or how to write conclusions. Lab reports become guessing games. They lose points not because they don't know science - but because they can't write about it.
I provide templates and frameworks for EVERY section: hypothesis format, data table structure, conclusion checklist. We practice writing scientifically until it's automatic.
Abstract Concepts - Can't Visualize What's Happening
Atoms, chemical bonds, DNA replication, electric fields - you can't SEE them. Textbooks show 2D diagrams. Students read descriptions but can't picture what's actually happening.
I use diagrams, animations, and real-world analogies. We draw pictures together. I show videos. Abstract becomes concrete. You'll VISUALIZE science, not just read about it.
Word Problems Require Math + Science Combined
"Calculate the velocity..." "Find the molarity..." "What's the genetic probability?" Students understand the science OR the math, but struggle when both are required in one problem.
I teach formula application step-by-step: Identify what you're solving for → Write the formula → Plug in values → Solve. We practice 50+ calculation problems per topic until automatic.
Dense Reading Passages - Science Textbooks Are Brutal
Science textbooks pack 10 concepts into one paragraph. Students read a page 3 times and still don't understand. Too many unfamiliar terms, complex sentence structure, information overload.
I teach active reading: highlight key terms, annotate definitions, summarize each paragraph in your own words. We break dense passages into digestible chunks. You'll extract meaning efficiently.
Multiple Sciences at Once - Switching Mental Gears
Freshman year: Earth Science. Sophomore: Biology. Junior: Chemistry. Senior: Physics. Each science requires different thinking. Students struggle to switch mental frameworks.
I teach how each science thinks differently: Biology = systems and processes. Chemistry = reactions and calculations. Physics = forces and equations. You'll learn the "mindset" for each.
What Makes My Science Tutoring Different
Lab Report Mastery
I provide step-by-step templates for EVERY lab section: title, purpose, hypothesis, materials, procedure, data, analysis, conclusion. No more guessing.
Visual Learning Approach
I use diagrams, videos, animations, and drawing to make abstract concepts concrete. You'll SEE science happening, not just read about it.

Science Tutoring FAQ
Do you offer chemistry tutoring in NYC?
Yes! I provide expert chemistry tutoring covering all topics including the Chemistry Regents exam. In-person throughout NYC and online via Zoom.
Can you help with lab reports?
Absolutely! I provide step-by-step templates for hypothesis, procedure, data tables, analysis, and conclusions. We'll master scientific writing together.
What science Regents exams do you prepare students for?
I prepare students for all four NY science Regents: Chemistry, Physics, Living Environment (Biology), and Earth Science. I teach test strategies and content mastery.
My child is failing science - can you help?
Yes! I start with fundamentals, identify knowledge gaps, and rebuild from the ground up. Most students see grade improvements within 6-8 weeks of consistent sessions.
Do you help with AP science courses?
Yes! I tutor AP Biology, AP Chemistry, and AP Physics. I'm familiar with the AP exam format and teach both content and exam strategies.
