Questions?
You can start chatting with Arnaut before you get started.
In my years working with students, I’ve learned that academic struggles are rarely about a lack of ability—they are almost always about a drop in confidence. A single confusing chapter can make a student feel like they simply "aren't a math or science person." My mission is to change that narrative. Drawing from my own rigorous background in engineering at USC, I break down advanced topics into bite-sized, achievable victories. I love helping students realize that with the right framework and a bit of encouragement, no subject is beyond their reach.

Coaches professionally
Experience level: Director
100+ people coached for K-12 Teaching
As a USC Viterbi Master of Science Engineering graduate with over 9 years of tutoring experience, I specialize in guiding high-achieving students through the most rigorous quantitative STEM bottlenecks—specifically AP Calculus AB/BC, AP Physics C (Mechanics & E&M), and IB Math Analysis & Approaches HL. My background in advanced engineering allows me to move students beyond rote formula memorization and into deep, multi-step conceptual modeling. This rigor is critical for excelling in top-tier coursework and securing admission into highly competitive university STEM programs. My coaching style is highly structured and visual. Working 1-on-1 via an interactive digital whiteboard equipped with tools like Desmos, I break down complex mechanics and advanced calculus into intuitive, repeatable steps. We systematically dissect official IB mark-schemes and AP Free Response Questions (FRQs) to eliminate careless errors and maximize exam points. Whether your student is looking to solidify foundational logic or push from a 4 to a 5 on an AP exam, I provide the targeted, high-stakes mentorship needed to achieve elite academic results. Please send me a message to discuss your student's current coursework and schedule an introductory chat.

Why do I coach?
I coach because I want to show students that math and physics are alive, moving systems—not just abstract formulas to memorize for a test. When I was navigating my Master’s in Engineering at USC, I realized that the most complex concepts became incredibly simple once you connected them to real-world applications. Today, frameworks like the IB Diploma and AP physics are often taught with rigid memorization, which causes students to freeze up under pressure. I coach to bring my engineering background into the equation, helping students build a profound, visual intuition that makes high-stakes exams highly manageable.
