I am a patient, kind and skilled teacher. I believe that students learn the best when they are able to ease the stress surrounding their challenging subjects. I approach tutoring by meeting students wherever they are in their understanding, and help build their confidence and self trust in the subject. I am skilled at presenting difficult topics from a variety of perspectives. I am available most times and am happy to meet at your home or a local cafe or library.

I have worked with students in Math and Science for the past 18 years. I love to make difficult concepts come alive to the student. I like to work from concrete examples towards abstract concepts. Math is a subject that is best learned by doing and I enjoy working with my students to understand the reasons behind the formulas.

I have spent over ten years in the classroom teaching English Comprehension, Literature, Writing and Spelling to students in middle school. I have also worked extensively with struggling readers grades 4-12, and with English Language Learners. I have supervised summer school programs, led peer-tutoring groups, and run a school newspaper. I currently volunteer as a liaison between my school district and my city, sit on the board of a local parenting group with over 500 members, and am very involved in preschool and kindergarten reading, writing and math. I enjoy working with students of all ages and at all levels!

I approach instruction from the view that “teach[ing] a man to fish, will feed him for a lifetime”. I am committed to building on what my students bring with them, using this as a fulcrum on which to hinge their learning. This approach succeeds in helping students understand that they are capable of and even responsible for teaching themselves?–?a skill I see as a necessity in life, especially once a student can no longer expect formal instruction. In addition to my own experiences with learning several languages, I have benefited from coursework in Behavioral Psychology, which has taught me to create positive classroom atmosphere. My students note my enthusiasm for language and express appreciation for my linguistic explanations. I have spent 6 years teaching university-level German language courses and reading comprehension & writing courses. Before this, I spent 2 years as a volunteer

I am passionate, driven, funny, and determined. "I have a never-ending smile". I am a good listener. I have a strong ability to explain things in a way that will grasp the attention of someone non-versed in a certain subject. This is because I explain things in detail without making one feel inferior. Also, I like asking the tutee questions to engage the student and to ensure that the student understands the topic. I then ask the tutee to summarize what I have said after I explain something. This is an effective way to keep the student's attention. Overall, my goal is to tutor students so that they learn. Students are in good hands with me because I am driven to succeed. As a graduate of UC Berkeley, I have a passion of helping others. During my freshman year in Calculus, I grasped the subject matter pretty well and volunteered to assist peers with homework problems. I en

My first tutoring experience actually began when I was a high school senior and tutored ESL students at South High School. Since then I have worked in a summer program tutoring elementary ESL students, gone on to graduate with degrees in English and Environmental Studies, and most recently, worked as an Americorps member at Andersen Elementary and Open in Minneapolis. My primary role at Andersen was tutoring elementary students (mostly 5th grade) in math and reading. I also have some experience in teaching ecology at a couple of environmental learning centers. Although my degrees are in English and Environmental Studies, I am also quite comfortable with math up through the 8th grade level. I think one of my greatest strengths as a tutor is my patience with students. I am very attentive to the frustrations that students sometimes undergo and I continue to work with students until they und

I graduated from Duke University in 2009 with a triple-major in Biomedical Engineering, Economics, and Mathematics. I have tutored in Economics and spent four years mentoring middle-schools students in Engineering as a Techtronics Fellow. I have never been someone who "just gets it" when it comes to math or science, and so I understand more than many people who pursued degrees in these subjects just how puzzling they can be. Math seems like it is filled with "tricks" that seem impossible to know unless you were born with some innate gift. When I teach, I seek to show, step-by-step. how to think about a problem as more than a set of symbols on paper. I seek to impart the critical thinking skills that reveal why those tricks aren't tricks at all, but are instead a natural part of the grammar of math and science.

I am a graduate student transitioning from physics to astrophysics, my goal being a PhD in Astrophysics. My undergraduate degree is a BS in Physics with a minor in astronomy. Because of the nature of physics, I have been exposed to many types of science and mathematics. I am also experienced with professional writing as required for producing lab reports and research papers, some of which were followed by presentation talks. Most recently I have been working as a physics instructor for The Princeton Review. My philosophy of teaching is to train the student to think like a scientist and/or mathematician. It is not just about getting the right answer but rather understanding the fundamental principals of a subject. This enables the student to try previously unseen problems and succeed. I also believe in varying the techniques used. If a student has trouble with their teacher or text books

Individualizing English grammar, composition, and lit. instruction became a teaching strength during 12 years in secondary schools. Skills for ELLs were honed by nine years at a Japanese university. I tutored adults in my “Have English-Will Travel” company serving personal/business needs of Silicon Valley firms’ foreign nationals. Effectiveness with L1 and L2 speakers is augmented by detailed assessment and diagnosis of skills, with personalized remediation for desired proficiencies. Living in three cultures and specializing in Intercultural Communication enables connection with a variety of students. Publications reflect funded investigation of language minority students’ academic progress and well-being in Japanese public schools. I love learning, and try to impart its joy to all I encounter. Much of that joy is realized by my students in developing and mastering needed and wanted skil
