I have helped students get accepted to Princeton, Caltech, UCBerkely, UCSD, UCLA, Yale, etc. 5 + years of experience in teaching and tutoring all kinds of subjects. Have tutor all ranges of high school and undergrad math and physics. I enjoy tutoring and helping people learn the subjects I find fun. Yes, physics and math can be really AWESOME! Believe it :D
