I am a senior undergraduate student enrolled at Georgia Tech. My major is nuclear and radiological engineering, but i have experience in the fields of mechanical and civil engineering. I am most experienced in the subjects of mathematics, radiation physics, and electromagnetics including: algebra (I and II), trigonometry, differential equations, calculus 1 and 3, reactor physics, radiation protection/particle physics, thermodynamics, classical mechanics. I also have basic college level experience in the fields of chemistry and biology.
I encourage students to question problem solving methods in order to understand the fundamentals. After an explanation of the material I often follow up with several example problems to help students test their mastery of the subject. I do not emphasize memorizing equations, because students do not learn about the physical phenomena by memorization. ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I enjoy working with kids (and teenagers), and do so compassionately and patiently. Patience with children is one of my strongest attributes for this position. They find me easy to talk to and relate. This not only enables me to teach them, but also allows us to learn from each other. I believe that children are the future, and each should be given ample opportunity to succeed. It is one of my goals to assist with this. Since graduating, I have felt a great need to give back. I will be a valuable addition to your team.
I graduated from the UCSB with a B.S. in Biochemistry in June, 2010. My willingness to work combined with my academic performance demonstrates my commitment to excellence. My grades are a good indication that I complete tasks with attention to detail and consistent follow through. I have extensive skills from my work in labs and my numerous other courses that are va ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a recent college graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering from California State University in Long Beach. Before that, I attended the California Academy of Math and Science. All of my studies have been heavily based in math and science, by the end of which I had reached the level Differential Calculus, and high end applied sciences like Control Systems, Heat Transfer and Machine Component Design. Since 2008, I have tutored several students one on one in Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry and Pre-calculus. I have also worked many years in the food service industry, learning how to communicate, to be patient, and to be understanding.
A good tutor must be a good communicator. When I tutor, I ask questions about what the student knows and what areas cause them difficulty, often requesting them to demonstrate their proficiency with the subject. I answer all pupils ... read more

I am patient and easy going with my students. I try to communicate with them to see what their specific needs are or where they need help most. When practicing homework problems I try to elaborate on them by showing them what they should look for before even starting the problem, what steps to take, and usually ask them a variation of the same problem. This has helped my students grasp the concept they are learning and has made it easier for them to remember how to complete a problem when it comes to tests.
I recently completed my Bachelors in Chemical Engineering this past September from UCI. My math skills are very strong. I'm also proficient in Chemistry and Physics. I have been hired as a private tutor multiple times for high school students for both math and science and have tutored friends in college level math as well. This has helped my teaching ability and helped deve ... read more

I have been working on the teaching assistant position at USC for many years. My Ph.D. is in physics and have done extensive research on mathematical physics. Overall, I have the qualification to teach at this position.
Illustrative, intuitive and inductive is my 3-I's from the teaching experience. People understand things through different routes and it is not the material that is difficult, but typically it is the material doesn't ring a bell to the person's mindset. So, it is important to have the communication right and understand another person's mindset.

I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each one in different ways. I am available to help your child be prepared for a future in sciences. I am patient, easy going, considerate, focused on real life application of the science. My goal is to provide the best fundamentals for science education possible. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a constructivist approach to learning. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences from real world. A few good educators can make a world of difference in a child's education. I consider them as colleges.

I was a teaching assistant for 3 years after I got my first M.S. degree in physics in 1985. I taught several science related classes in these years. I had a good relationship with students and communicated very well. I came to Univeristy of Notre Dame in 1988. While pursuing my degree, I was a teaching assistant to grade homework/exam and to tutor student for their homework. I got good feedback from students for the simple and practical style of teaching.
Teaching is a passion. I like it very much. All the students can learn. As a teacher, one should be patient and teach with love. The efficient way to improve grade is to set up a good study habit and never give up. After I graduated from school, though I have been working in the industry rather than academic due to various reasons, I always want to get back to this career. I believe my industrial experience will bring posit ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

For the past several years, I have been working full time as a researcher in the field of condensed matter physics. Before that, while a graduate fellow at the University of Pennsylvania, I acted as an instructor in laboratory skills and assisted teaching classes in both the physics department and the Wharton School of Business. In addition, I worked regularly with a National Science Foundation program to train high school teachers in the latest advances in nanotechnology. The most enjoyable part of those years for me was teaching middle and high school students about careers in science and cutting edge research.
The most important term to categorize my teaching style is low pressure. Many years of education in math and science has shown me that the intensity and stress often associated with this branch of education is entirely counterproductive. A more supportive approach to learn ... read more

I am a 'relaxed' teacher, but maintain - or try to maintain - a good study pace. The individual I may be tutoring may require different approaches to try and learn the material at-hand; however, I have always found that with a positive attitude and a constructive approach to any learning 'issue' the solution is normally found between both the student and the tutor (as to the best study method works for the individual at-hand).
As an undergraduate student at the University of California Santa Barbara I found and nurtured a love to pass-on learned experiences to others. The program I was heavily involved with was named MESA (Mathematics, Engineering, and Science Achievement). Being an engineer, I tutored students at different High Schools and found great pleasure in seeing how other kid's faces could 'sparkle,' when they found-out that they could solve problems which they may have no ... read more

My teaching style is to provide the students every opportunity to succeed in any subject due to the fact that all I believe all children has the ability to learn. With my patients, easy going, and unique teach ability, I can show my students different ways of learning concepts that maybe they never seen before. I believe all children can fulfill their potential looking at problems in different points of view and with a constructive approach to learning. I strive to teach my students to face their mistakes and to learn for them. I strive to make a difference every single day for my students.

As a UCLA graduated student who majors in materials science and engineering, I am confident helping students to use the easiest and most understandable way to solve math, physics or chemistry questions. I also have more than 3 years experience in tutoring high school and college students.
How to make students understand what exactly I am talking about is always the priority keeping in my mind. I was a student, so I perfectly understand sometimes students may have no idea about what they are learning. And the responsibility of a tutor is to explain again and again to students until they really get the points.
