Student's success is my top-priority. I have more than 7 years of experience helping high-school students with AP Physics and AP calculus as well as test-preparation including AP, SAT, IB, ACT, MCAT and GRE exams. I also specialize in college courses including PH121, PH141, PH122, PH142 among others. My goal is to help students master the concepts they struggle with and excel their classes.
I have a Ph.D. in Physics and I am very passionate about teaching and also very patient. I believe ev...

Very helpful in the way that he goes into depth with each problem. He also gave me extra problems to work on which was helpful and he showed me new ways to solve problems.

Very good lesson! Martin is knowledgeable, and very patient, he makes sure you understand the stuff before moving on. I recommend him.
- J M. from Truckee, CA
Martin helped my daughter understand which formulas to use under different circumstances in AP physics. She feels like she has a much better handle on the content now!
- Kimberly P. from Bellingham, WA
Martin helps my son understand complex physics concepts quickly. I highly recommend him for anyone struggling in college level or AP Physics.
- Joyce C. from Kissimmee, FL
Martin is very knowledgeable and patient! I took AP Physics (algebra based) this year and was struggling to keep up with all the concepts. But lessons with Martin helped tremendously! He was very patient in working through questions and making sure I understood all the steps in solving them. He also provided extra problems to practice with that were very helpful in preparing for the AP exam. I definitely recommend him as a tutor!!!

Our daughter reviewed her SAT math with Martin. She is a good student but since in this pandemic she will only have one chance to take the SAT, she felt she needed help to make it as good as possible. Martin worked with her school + varsity sports schedule which was so kind of him. Like a seasoned teacher, Martin quickly diagnosed her weaker points and energetically started repairing them. After only three sessions her SAT math scores were almost perfect. Thank you ! We will come back for Physics:)

This semester I took Physics 202. I had lessons with 9 other physics tutors and Martin was by far the best. He had diagrams, equations, and visual aids on hand to help me understand the lesson topics. Martin was able to help me with a variety of topics including magnetic fields (Biot-Savart Law and Ampere's Law), magnetic forces, electromagnetic induction (Faraday's Law, inductors, magnetic flux), AC circuits, wave optics, ray optics, and optical instruments. He is by far one of the most knowledgeable tutors I have ever had. Without Martin?s help, I would not have been able to pull off an A for the semester.

We've had two lessons with Martin so far, but my daughter can't say enough good things about him and his teaching style. Quick backstory - she is a junior in high school, currently. When she was entering her freshman year she tested into Algebra II. What we didn't realize was that she didn't really "get it," although her test scores showed differently. Sophomore year she had Trigonometry and Pre-Calculus. She passed both classes with average grades. We didn't worry too much as she didn't say that she had been struggling, just that the classes were "harder" than she thought they'd be. Then came Junior year and it all went south. She ended up failing her first semester of Calculus and then told us that she had been struggling with all concepts - even going back to Algebra. Now, she's currently failing her second semester while trying to make up her first semester's grade. Fortunately, in just two lessons with Martin, the lightbulb in her head has switched on and she's actually understanding things much better. If I could swing it, I'd have her seeing him more than once a week. I'm so glad we found someone that is helping my daughter. I was finding it hard to find a tutor that could help, especially given the current situation with the pandemic. We couldn't find anyone local, there were so many different online sites to choose from, we didn't know anyone else that had gone through tutoring, so finding a good fit with Martin has been a blessing. She needed someone to rewind and review the basics with her before jumping into the Calculus concepts. So thankful for the help she's getting!

Martin taught me physics patiently with practice problems and is knowledgeable about all the things that are and aren't taught or tested in school. Although school has been online, Martin has really helped when I haven't been able to get much help from school.
- Nakaba M. from Bellevue, WA
Martin explained physics concepts well. He provided good problems to explain the concepts as well as good practice problems to help with test preparation. I highly recommend Martin.
- Huan T. from Irvine, CA
Super patient and easy to work with! Makes things easy to understand so that I can work through the problems! Took the time to figure out how I leaned best as well as developed a plan to get to my ultimate goal that I am trying to reach! Definitely recommend!!!
- Heather M. from Layton, UT
always listens, and offers suggestions for material to work on, even when high school instructor offers no guidance on what to work on. wish he were my daughters high school teacher!
- Anne T. from Sacramento, CA
Martin is a very knowledgeable and a very patient tutor. He went above and beyond working with my student. He continued on the same topic until he had the subject solidly in their grasp. Thanks for being persistent with my student and giving him extra worksheets for him to continue to practice with.
- Kristine V. from Littleton, CO
A really nice guy who walked me through the material without giving me the answers. I really felt that I understood the material much better than before.
- Joe P. from Wynnewood, PA
My daughter described Martin as "a miracle worker." She was incredibly worried about problems that she did not understand on an upcoming physics honors test and felt completely confident after working with Martin. Cannot thank him enough!! Will work with him again in the future. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! He was incredibly patient and she enjoyed his friendly, light-hearted approach. Amazing tutor!!!
- Beth H. from Hollywood, FL
Martin was a perfect tutor to help my daughter prepare for her Physics test. She felt very comfortable with his expertise and plans to schedule more sessions with him in the future.
- Amy O. from Kirkland, WA
He is always happy to repeat himself if you don?t understand something the first time he explains it. Creates a comfortable learning environment. Definitely very intelligent and is a physics master.
- Danny F. from State College, PA
My daughter needed an AP Physics tutor at the last minute and within an hour of our request, Martin was available and provided her with very clear explanations for what she needed to know for her test tomorrow. The session was online but she said the computer program he used allowed for him to copy her worksheet and he was able to free-write on it, allowing for quick explanations. Thank you!!
- Thu N. from Mc Lean, VA
A great tutor. Patient and very helpful. Knows what he is talking about and very easy to understand. Definitely a must have for anyone looking for a physics tutor.
- Nathan V. from College Station, TX
Jake has been working with Martin for several weeks now preparing for his second year of IB math. Martin is doing an incredible job. We plan on starting SAT prep work with him next month.
