New York State · Physical Setting Regents
Premium preparation for the Physical Setting / Physics Regents — built around true conceptual understanding, not formula memorization.
Physics Regents preparation is Mr. Sharma's strongest single specialty. Students learn to derive equations rather than memorize them — and they walk into the exam knowing where every Reference Table value comes from.

Section 03
Underlying skills the Physics Regents measures.
Decomposing forces and velocities along axes confidently.
Drawing complete, correctly-labeled diagrams that drive every Newton's-laws problem.
Working multi-step kinematics and dynamics problems with proper units.
Reading position-time, velocity-time, and force-distance graphs as physics — not abstract curves.
Series and parallel circuits solved with Ohm's law and power equations.
Choosing between energy conservation and momentum conservation based on the question.
Locating and applying the right equation from the six-page Reference Tables instantly.
Showing setup, equation, substitution, and answer with units for full Part C credit.
Distinguishing why a phenomenon happens, not just how to calculate it.
Section 04
Common Physics Regents challenges — addressed directly during tutoring.
Section 05
A six-step path from diagnostic to test day, used with every Physics Regents student.
A full-length diagnostic establishes the student's true starting point across every tested area.
Results are mapped to specific subtopics — not just section scores — so the plan targets the right work.
Underlying content is rebuilt where needed so test strategies have something solid to stand on.
Curated, exam-aligned problems are worked through together on the digital whiteboard.
Pacing, elimination, and figure-reading techniques tuned to this exam's format.
Regular timed practice tests turn preparation into performance — and reveal exactly what to refine next.
Section 06
Why families choose Mr. Sharma for Physics Regents preparation.
Decades of one-on-one and classroom instruction across every level of mathematics and science.
Every session is built around the student in front of the camera — never a group class.
Students learn why the material works, not just which button to press.
Live, written, step-by-step instruction that mirrors a real classroom whiteboard.
Assignments written for the student's plan — never generic worksheets.
Clear, ongoing measurement so families see exactly where their student stands.
Sessions fit around school, sports, and family life — anywhere in the country.
Questions are welcomed, not rushed. Students learn to think out loud.
Every lesson connects back to how the concept actually appears on the exam.
