I have always been fond of children and teaching. I had a reputation of being a great substitute teacher at different schools. I am a firm believer in having a strong academic background. I am a patient and understanding person. I will do what is required to have the child understand and learn the concept at hand. Through my experience as a teacher, I have learned different teaching techniques that allows the children to better absorb what is being taught. I understand that different students have different learning abilities and I am very well capable of adapting to different learning styles. It always makes me feel proud and honored to have helped a child to learn and grow.

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated from the University of California, Santa Barbara in 2008 with a double major in chemistry (B.S.) and environmental studies (B.A.). This combination of subjects led me to in-depth knowledge of chemistry, environmental studies, and mathematics as well as broad understanding of biology, physics, ecotoxicology, writing, history, economics, and logic. I have tutored elementary students and middle school students in mathematics, social studies, science, and language arts. Additionally, I helped friends while in high school and college with subjects ranging from mathematics and organic chemistry to logic and environmental studies.
My parents always stressed the importance of education. Over time, this became my philosophy as well. I enjoy trying to bring out this love of learning in the next generation. I feel that is done by not only helping the students to succeed in school, ... read more

I am confident that I can help my students improve in their performance in any of the above-mentioned subjects in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. I believe that any student can learn a subject once he or she is able to understand its concepts and practice its procedures following a consistent set of steps. Having a thorough understanding of mathematics and physics allows me to break down concepts, explain them using different approaches, diagnose where the student has misconceptions or difficulties, and to review skills that will enable the student to have a strong foundation. I also have access to software, activities and manipulatives that may make the learning process more fun.
I have a BS in Mathematics from Cal Poly Pomona along with 8 years of work experience tutoring secondary students and college students in Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, College Algebra, ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I hold Bachelor and Master of Arts degrees in English Literature from Kansas State University. In addition, I have two years of teaching experience at the collegiate level where I taught writing courses to freshmen and sophomores. I have also tutored many students in various Literature and writing courses throughout my two years as a graduate student.
I advocate a hands-on teaching and learning environment. I think that hands-on learning is the only way to truly help students interact with a subject in order to absorb and comprehend it. If, as a teacher or tutor, I can help the student relate a subject to their lives or help them create a connection between what they are learning and what they enjoy, I have succeeded. Teaching is not about lecturing, it is about encouraging students to seek answers of their own accord through positive interaction with the subject material. Ultimate ... read more

My philosophy focuses on the development across five dimensions of learning: confidence and independence, knowledge and understanding, skills and strategies, the ability to use prior and emerging experience in new situations, and reflectiveness - the ability to think deeply and critically. I provide students with more experiences to working independently and interactively. It is essential to coordinate the students' inherent drive for self-determination, academic goals, and engaging activities that represents student achievement and performance. My practice is to create an environment that is highly collaborative, project-based, resource-rich, challenging, and equitable.
During the last seven years, I have taught and tutored students in the subjects of life science, general science, physical science, chemistry, intro physics and mathematics. My background includes: a Bachelors Deg ... read more

I use Socratic questioning strategies and experiential learning to ensure that students understand why a concept applies rather than just memorizing formulas. I use manipulatives and visual aids to ensure that multiple modalities are integrated. I work with the whole student as a person, identifying how the student learns and teaching the student how to adapt various teaching styles to his/her learning style.
I have 9 years of experience teaching high school; all courses - AP Calculus, pre-calculus, algebra 2, geometry, algebra, pre-algebra (including special needs and english learners), and practical applications. Over the last 20 years, I have tutored students in all of the above subjects as well as elementary math concepts, writing strategies, and reading recovery. I am NCLB certified and focused on the defined national & state standards of each subject.

I have a funny sense of humor and an easy-going nature that make me very approachable to children. I am passionate about educating children and I believe that every child has a unique way of learning and possesses unique talents. I am able to build a rapport with students and I believe that learning should be fun! Students learn in different ways, so I find the way a child learns best and I consistently teach them that way. Children need to be praised to feel they are doing well. This will keep them on the road to a bright future!

I consider my ability to observe and adapt to situations that may not be considered ordinary as an advantage. Through education, I have developed techniques that enhance my analytical and critical thinking skills. My closest linguistic “friends” in life are How, What, When, Where, Who, and Why. With their help and the help of others, I know I will succeed as a teacher and student. I am a perpetual pupil and will remain so until the end. I also draw upon my experiences as a husband, parent, son, brother, friend, and associate when assessing interactions and conversations with those individuals I come into contact with on a daily basis. We are all here and together for such a short time, and time is an irreplaceable asset. Therefore, it only stands to reason that moments of learning should not be wasted.

A Little Bit About Me...

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

More About This Tutor...

Throughout my years at UC Riverside, I was able to gain considerable experience in the field of mathematics. Many of my classes were math intensive and as an engineer, we were taught to be very precise. While in school, I had a chance to help my fellow classmates prepare for exams. I also had a chance to work at Academic Advantage where I tutored younger kids in English and math. Also, while in High School I tutored math at my old Middle School.
Working with children or fellow classmates is something I enjoy doing. I love it when I am able to help someone advance or catch up in the subjects necessary. I believe everyone has the ability to learn and succeed. My goal is to make sure that when I am done tutoring, you will jump at the opportunity to have me tutor again. I am an easy going tutor and very patience. I believe patience is the key to success and that's what I incorporate wh ... read more
