Physics is one of my top subjects!

I have tutored college students for Sonoma State in physics, calculus, algebra and trigonometry for the past 3.5 years. I have also done some private tutoring for the same subjects. I also created a interactive workbook for the general physics class at Sonoma State and used it to teach chapter 6 of the course.

Math, Physics and Electrical Engineering Tutor

Hello, My name is Brian and I majored in Electrical Engineering at the University of California, Riverside. In middle school and high school, I took every Honors and Advanced Placement math and science class offered. In college I have taken differential equations, single and multi-variable calculus and physics for engineers. I have always excelled in math and in high school I found that I am also good a teaching it to others. I do not have a lot of formal tutoring experience. I mainly have just helped out friends and friends' siblings whenever it was needed. In high school I helped classmates when they did not understand certain concepts in our math classes. I also tutored a friend's younger brother for about a year and a half, in Geometry and Algebra 2. His parents asked if I could help him because he was struggling in geometry and we succeeded in raising his grade from a D on his ... read more

I am patient yet firm. My personal background in mathematics was fairly rigorous, so I always make my students show their work. As the subject material gets tougher, it becomes more critical to be able to check all stages of one's work. One of my math teachers gave me some sage advice: "Math teachers are lazy. We find the quickest and shortest route to a solution." I've taken this tongue-in-cheek wisdom to heart in my own way. While there is only one single solution for any math problem, there are infinitely elegant ways to arrive at that solution. I show my students different ways to solve problems because flexibility is key. Mathematics is a great way to keep one's thinking nimble and that can help throughout one's education.
I earned a degree in Applied Mathematics and have always been "the go to guy" when my friends high school aged kids need help with their math homework. I h ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Many of my friends and colleagues say that my choice to become a teacher was the right choice. They have said that because of my enthusiasm, understanding and patient attitude, along with my knowledge of the subjects I tutor, are what would make me a good teacher. I believe that practice and a lot of dedication can lead to perfection! I also believe that no child is incapable of learning a certain subject. Everyone just learns differently, and in every tutoring experience it is my goal to learn how to cater my teaching techniques to the unique student in front of me so that I can be the most effective teacher possible.
Teaching has always been my passion and skill. I have many experiences working with other students so that they could learn a specific subject better. During my stay at Contra Costa College, I became a certified tutor and became responsible for tutoring students i ... read more

I love teaching and working with high school and middle school students. I believe every child has ability to learn math though their learning styles are different. I am patient and hard working. When I was teaching at OSU, the TA's served in Tutor room one hour per week so I gained confidence and teaching skills in answering questions from the students. I am friendly and genuinely love students. I am approachable and explain the material throughly. I am good at solving math problems and make math easy to understand.
I was a Graduate Teaching Associate at Ohio State Uinversity Math Department, teaching college math recitation sections including Calculus and Pre-calculus courses from 1987 to 1993.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have spent most of my formative and adult years learning, and then helping others to learn from the knowledge I have gained. My first job at age 15 was working in a computer assistance program which helped children and adults with severe disabilities become proficient with computer technology. Later I was promoted to both train new hires and outreach students, as well as manage and train fellow employees in the technology used in the workplace. In University I helped tutor lower division students in the Physics curriculum through the University tutoring program. During my education to gain a BS in Physics I have built a solid foundation in Math, and Sciences, and helping others grasp those concepts as well.
I am a fan of teaching people who are eager and willing to learn. If a person actually wants to learn, then the trick is merely to be patient, build up a persons confidenc ... read more

As a pre-med at UC Berkeley, I have a vast experience with in the basic sciences. I fell in love with Molecular Biology because of how integrated the field was. Everything was connected in some way or another. To complete my experience, I was also heavily involved in research. I've done research in stem cells, neurons, sickle cells, and zinc fingers. I've had the opportunity to tutor disadvantaged students in Oakland. Tutored underclassmen in High school. I've helped them in school work, SAT, and college applications. My students have received offers from UCB, UCLA, and Stanford.
My number one goal in teaching has always been to improve the students approach and mentality. All most every student I have tutored had the hidden, raw talent to succeed in school, but either lacked the desire or the vision to do so. I want students to see problems and concepts like how I do. I want them ... read more

Wanting to teach is the major reason I got my PhD. I've always had a love of learning, and want to be able to share that with students. It is important to understand that all students are different and no one approach will work for all students. In my experience teaching both as a lecturer and on an individual basis, when dealing with a student one-on-one, the student and the tutor need to be equal partners in the session. The focus needs to be on what the student is having trouble with and the tutor acting as a guide. As someone who has benefited from excellent teachers in my education, I try to use what I have learned from them in my teaching. The most important part of teaching is to make the student want to learn and feel engaged.

Since I am an engineer, I teach Math orienting towards its application. In such way, I motivate people by stating application behind any math . I believe examples and theories are necessary for students to understand the material; moreover, challening tests are also necessary for them more exciting about Math and to know the world is not that easy. In short, I will motivate the material by saying the applications, explain the materials, work on the examples, and, then, test the student to know how my teaching is effected to my students
I am a graduate student at UC Berkeley working towards my Masters Degree in Mechanical Engineering. Since I am interest in teaching , I established my career as follow: 03/2007- 05/2007 Tutor, San Jose Public Library, Seven trees Branch, San Jose, CA 1/2009-1/2010 Private Tutor - Tutoring Math to a high school student.

A Little Bit About Me...

My bachelor's degree in English serves as an example for the effort and time committed to education and a service to academia. I learned literary skills concerning literary forms: folklore, poetry, short story, photography, personal essay, analytical essay. My two years of high school Spanish, one year of College French, and completion of breadth college requirements provide a slight ability for me to tutor Spanish and French language, computer navigation, basic algebraic math, and basic social studies. During the last three years I tutored ESL, reading, and Astronomy at Chaffey College, overlooked K-12 after-school P.E. programs with the Boys and Girls Club, and facilitated a course in wheelchair basketball and disability at UC Berkeley.
