I love learning languages and am always spending time either practicing ones I've been learning for a while or exploring new ones.
Aside from being a native English speaker, my learned languages are Español (Spanish), Français (French), 汉语 (Mandarin), 日本語 (Japanese), 粵語 (Cantonese), Nederlands (Dutch), and ภาษาไทย (Thai), along with occasional dabbling in Tiếng Việt (Vietnamese) and Deutsch (German).

Hello! My name is Trevor Kafka, and I am an online teacher of physics and mathematics. I am highly enthusiastic about all topics that I teach and have extensive experience teaching all levels, all the way from middle school math through college-level math and physics, and beyond. I also teach AP, SAT, ACT, and other school admissions exams, including the notoriously difficult AP Physics C exam. I am a graduate of Brandeis University holding a double major in physics and mathematics and worked as a lead instructor at Wellesley High School for two years. Since 2014, I have been teaching group and 1-on-1 physics and math classes extensively.
Whether you are looking for help in your current class, looking to prepare for an upcoming exam, or want to improve your skills out of personal interest, I am confident that I will be able to provide you with lessons that are engaging, effective, and invaluable. I look forward to working with you soon! Thank you also for taking the time to visit my website—I built it from scratch and am exited to share with you what I can offer.

Zoom is my preferred internet communication tool for my tutoring sessions. After registering for a tutoring session with me, you will receive a class reminder email with a Zoom link for class 36 hours in advance of your appointment start time.
Yes, I most certainly can and am happy to! Homework assignments are available by request. They are generally not provided by default but under most circumstances are offered free of charge.
Students are often very busy, so additional tutor-assigned homework is not always appropriate, but if it would be helpful to have homework assignments from me given to you for time outside of class, please let me know, and I can provide this to you for no extra charge (as long as the amount of time it takes me to construct and review the assignments is within reason).
For regular students who elect to have assignments, I often set up Google Classroom pages to organize class materials, including notes and homework assignments.
Exceptions to this policy may be made on a case-by-case basis, usually under circumstances where late schedule changes do not pose an inconvenience. The fundamental intent of these policies is so that I can ensure a reliable work schedule and work-life balance, not to create "gotcha" situations for clients. I try to be as reasonable as possible in consideration of the factors surrounding any late cancellation and I request the same of my clients.
My credentials and prior experience include the following.
Yes! However, references change often in order to stay most up to date, so please email me directly at
Payments are made online via credit card through the same portal that class registrations are made. As of August 2021, there is no internet convenience fee for online payments. The amount you see on your bill is the amount you pay.
Please note that unfortunately I do not accept digital payment outside of my website due to the complexity it poses, but my website does provide options for saving your credit card information for future payments and/or enrollment in automatic payments for your convenience.
Bills are automatically generated at the end of each month for classes taken in that month and emailed out to clients. Bills are due within 7 days of receipt.
Class rates vary depending on time of year, my availability, instructional content, and the financial situation of each family and/or student. Under most circumstances, rates remain locked-in on a per-family basis. Please get in touch directly by scheduling an intro call or by email to discuss class rates.
I'm interested! What do I do now?
Please begin by scheduling a free 20-minute introductory video call with me so that we can touch base about your current situation and how I can best help you.
If you'd like to skip the 20-minute introductory call, it is also possible to directly schedule your first session by emailing me at
