1-on-1 Sessions

Physics is hard for many reasons, but a main one is that each unit builds off the previous - it is hard to perform well in Unit 5 if 1-4 aren't understood. Within the first 30 minutes of working with a student, I can find where their issues begin, and will devise a plan to catch them up to their current class level.

My experiences have taught me that students have different strengths and weaknesses when it comes to learning a difficult subject. I pride myself on being able to connect with students of all ability levels and am confident in my ability to explain concepts in multiple ways.

I have all of my own materials, including lecture notes to talk through using screen share, practice worksheets, practice quizzes/exams, and access to released AP physics problems. I am happy to send the student as much practice as they would like at the conclusion of each session.
​
Meetings are typically conducted online via Zoom.  Each session is individually customized to meet the needs of the student. During our time together, I can:
  • ​Teach and build notes
  • Explain homework materials
  • Work through my materials
  • Review for quizzes/exams/finals​​

​I prefer to tutor students in 45-minute increments.  I feel that I can always cover what is needed in that time. 
Meetings are held online via Zoom, and
typically last 45 minutes in length
If a student wants to work through specific problems from their own class, emailing them in advance is always helpful and makes sessions most efficient.
Group Sessions

Designed for small groups of students that wish to meet during the same time slot for a discounted rate. Students can sign up as a group, or can request to join an established group as an individual. For individual cases, I will try to match students who are studying the same material and working at the same pace.

Becky B.  (Harker Heights, TX):
Scott went above and beyond to make sure my daughter is understanding the principals of her assignments. She was really struggling and feels much more confident after only two sessions. Thank you Scott! ​
Theresa H.  (Rancho Mirage, CA):
Scott is always quick to respond to any message and he is a knowledgeable physics tutor who has the ability and patience to explain to achieve complete comprehension!​
Jennifer T.  (Orland Park, IL):
He makes concepts and calculations easy to understand and gives you the confidence to believe you can solve challenging problems. Very responsive and flexible in accommodating your schedule.​
Lissa R.  (Catonsville, MD):
Scott is a great physics tutor! My son was amazed at how Scott was able to make difficult concepts seem simple. Thanks to Scott, my son feels very prepared for his next test.​
Aria T.  (The Bahamas):
I wish I had started with Scott from the beginning of the school year. He is great at explaining concepts and is extremely responsive and has given me many questions that I can work on my own to reinforce my understanding. I highly recommend him as a tutor!
Pedro D.  (Fort Lauderdale, FL):
Scott helped me with learning Newtons laws and different scenarios to apply them. He was patient when teaching, and helped me conceptualize the problems by explaining them from scratch. This really helped me better understand the subject!​
Irina Z.  (Tampa Bay, FL):
My son's problem is that he cannot see the whole picture of the subject and how topics are related to each other. On the first lesson Scott gave him a complete overview and went though all the formulas - how they can be grouped based on what they calculate. ​
Lenore A.  (Mount Prospect, IL):
Scott really helped my son prepare for an honors physics final exam. He was able to walk him through review sheets and go over broader concepts. As a result, my son felt confident and prepared for the exam ​​
​Vani S  (Mount Prospect, IL):
Mr. Kupiec is an excellent physics tutor that will provide a variety of practice problems and work through your personal questions as well as concerns. He will explain concepts in a variety of ways until you completely understand. Overall, extremely passionate and knowledgeable tutor. ​
David L  (Wheaton, IL):
I liked the easy to understand lessons and pacing. The sessions were very beneficial and all the walkthroughs felt customized to my comfort level. Did not feel rushed or pressured, it was overall a great tutor experience.

Scott was awesome he taught me more in a couple weeks than my real teacher all year. ​
​Emma G  (Naperville, IL)
I really appreciated how much material I was able to learn and understand in depth in just an hour. Mr. Kupiec taught me how and why laws of physics work in the real world which allowed me to appreciate and love learning the class material. He's an awesome tutor and excelled in answering any specific questions you may have, reviewing past material, breaking down tough problems, and explaining why you're completing each step in the problem.
Vama N  (Aurora, IL):
Mr. Kupiec is such an amazing teacher because he really knows how to make the student comfortable with the concepts they are learning in school by giving a lot of resources! While also helping the student a lot, his tutor sessions are very personalized so the student gets to decide what they want to do in that allocated period of time which can really help them reach their personal goals. He's also just a really fun person!! :)
