Why Choose My Physics Buddy
There are dozens of tutoring platforms and thousands of individual physics tutors available online. This page makes the case for choosing MPB specifically — not with marketing claims, but with the structural arguments that actually matter when you are deciding where to invest your time and money.
Physics Is All We Do
MPB covers 71 subjects. Every single one of them is physics or a subject that requires a strong physics foundation — Mathematical Physics, Computational Physics, Engineering Statics, Biophysics, Forensic Physics. Nothing else. No maths tutoring, no chemistry, no business, no languages.
This matters for three reasons. First, our tutor pool is filtered exclusively for physics depth, not breadth — we are not trying to staff 2,800 subjects. Second, our helpline team understands physics at the level required to match a student correctly. Knowing that a student struggling with “electrostatics” needs a tutor with experience in Gauss’s law and boundary conditions rather than basic circuit problems requires subject knowledge, not just keyword matching. Third, our Q&A library, subject pages, and blog are all physics-specific — when you arrive at MPB, the entire environment is calibrated to the discipline you are studying.
If you need a generalist tutoring service that covers everything, visit our sister platform My Engineering Buddy. If you need physics specifically — school level, undergraduate, postgraduate, or research — you are in the right place.
We Cover Physics All the Way to Its Research Frontier
Most tutoring platforms stop at undergraduate level. Their tutor pools are optimised for the high-volume subjects — AP Physics, GCSE, IB, MCAT. This is commercially rational but leaves a significant gap: postgraduate students, independent learners, and working scientists who need help with Quantum Field Theory, General Relativity, Condensed Matter Physics, Plasma Physics, or Cosmology typically cannot find a tutor who actually knows those subjects at the required depth.
MPB explicitly covers these topics. Our tutor pool includes physicists with Masters and PhD qualifications in these specialisations. If you are a PhD student trying to understand renormalisation in QFT, or an independent learner working through Carroll’s Spacetime and Geometry, or an engineering graduate who wants to understand semiconductor physics at the quantum level — we can match you with someone who genuinely knows the material.
Human Matching, Not an Algorithm
When you contact MPB, a real member of our helpline team reads your message, understands your requirements, and selects the right tutor manually. No algorithm, no automated suggestions, no random assignment from a queue. The person matching you has access to every tutor’s subject profile, rating history, and current availability — and they have the judgment to know that “AP Physics C: Mechanics” at a student who has never done calculus requires a different tutor than the same course for a student who aced Calculus AB.
This is slower than a marketplace model. It is also why 75% of students find their preferred tutor on the first trial session rather than having to try several before finding a good match.
The $1 Trial Removes the Risk
Choosing a tutor is a judgement call that is very hard to make from a profile page alone. The $1 trial exists precisely because we know this. For $1, you get 30 minutes with a real physics tutor in a real session. You experience the whiteboard, the tutor’s teaching style, and how well they understand your specific problem before you commit to anything. If it is not the right fit for any reason, your $1 is refunded.
We can offer this because we are confident in our tutor quality. If the trial regularly failed to convert students into paying customers, it would not be commercially viable. The fact that it works is evidence that the matching and the teaching quality hold up under the first impression.
Zero AI. Every Interaction Is Human
When you message MPB on WhatsApp, a human reads it and responds. When you are matched with a tutor, a human made that decision. When the tutor sits down to your session, they are a real physicist working through real physics with you in real time. When they send you notes after the session, those notes are written specifically about your session.
None of this involves AI. MPB uses AI tools internally for content production — this website’s subject pages and some blog content are produced with AI assistance. But the student-facing service is entirely human. We state “Zero AI. 100% Human.” because it is true of the service you receive, and because it is a genuine differentiator in an industry that is increasingly replacing human judgment with automated systems.
A Track Record You Can Verify
MPB has been operating since 2008 — over 18 years. Our reviews are spread across multiple independent platforms: Trustpilot (4.4/5), Reviews.io (4.9/5), and Facebook, in addition to 4,000+ student reviews collected directly via WhatsApp. Our founder, Pankaj Kumar, is publicly identifiable — his background, qualifications, and the history of how MPB was built are on our About Us page. The legal entity operating MPB (BlueAura iSolutions Private Limited, CIN: U93000BR2015PTC023959) is a registered Indian company with public records.
We are not anonymous. We are not new. The track record is real and it is checkable.
Our Tutors Come From India’s Top Institutions
The cost advantage of working with MPB compared to hiring a private physics tutor in the USA or UK is significant — roughly half the rate for comparable subject expertise. This is possible because our tutors are primarily based in India, where the cost of living is lower but the academic standard at the top institutions — IITs, NITs, IISc, ISI — is internationally competitive. A PhD physicist from IIT Madras or IISc Bangalore with 5+ years of tutoring experience working with you on Quantum Mechanics is a genuinely excellent option, not a compromise.
