Elizabeth M. - San Mateo, CA 94403 (18.7 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I believe in a highly individualized approach. We all have different learning styles: visual, auditory, kinisthetic... and many more. What's yours? Learning shouldn't be a chore, but an avenue to becoming a more successful person. I like to set goals with my students and help them knock them out one at a time, creating a lasting sense of accomplishment and heightening motivation for future endeavors. I began my teaching career even before graduating High School. I started volunteering my time with homework help and study skills at the local Boys and Girls Club when I was 16 followed by teaching Remedial English to a small group of ELL students at a partnering elementary school. During college, I continued my passion by joining an organization that teaches life and social skills to developmentally delayed young adults.

I believe learning should always be engaging and meaningful. It is critical to address individual student learning modalities and needs so the student can experience great success.

Janae K. - Salinas, CA 93901 (43.4 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $45.00/hr.
I have worked as a tutor for 10 years in all subjects, especially focusing on ESL learners. Recently, I have worked in an ESL school (FLS International) with university age students seeking to matriculate into American Universities. Before that, I worked in South Korea teaching English. While employed at these schools, I also work part-time as a tutor- mostly for middle and high school age students. Many of my students struggle with time management, and this is a main focus in my tutoring sessions. I hate lecturing! I do! This is why my tutoring style is very interactive. I don't like talking AT a person, I prefer to have a conversation. My goal as a tutor is to make subjects interesting, and also to make sure they stick- so you can do well on exams. I also teach study skills in every session, so ideally you won't have to rely on me forever. I try to give students tools that the

Raymond D - San jose, CA 95129 (1.7 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $47.00/hr.
My approach to teaching math and science is to thoroughly prepare a student by first emphasizing the fundamentals. Too many students get "lost" if advanced concepts are taught too soon. Then, once a student is ready, the studies should emphasize the students strengths and interests to the utmost possible. As an engineer and mathematician I have experience in all areas of Aerospace engineering,including management and mentoring of engineers over much of my 44 year career at Lockheed Martin. I have also tutored math, phyics, and other related subjects.
