Dr. Amanda Foster

Ph.D. Mathematics, University of Chicago

Twelve years of undergraduate teaching. Best with students who can execute the steps but cannot see why the steps are in that order.

Available: Weekday evenings, Saturday mornings

Book session with Dr. Amanda Foster

Michael Chen

James Rodriguez

Ph.D. Physics, Caltech

  • Mechanics

Will not let a student write an equation before drawing the situation. It resolves a surprising share of physics problems on its own.

Available: Evenings, Sunday afternoons

Book session with James Rodriguez

Emily Thompson

M.A. English Literature, Yale

  • Essay writing

Available: Weekday mornings and evenings

Book session with Emily Thompson

David Park

M.S. Computer Science, Stanford

  • Python

Available: Evenings, weekends

Book session with David Park

Dr. Lisa Martinez

Ph.D. Biology, UC Berkeley

Available: Weekday afternoons
