The Tutor that Fresno State trusts to prepare its athletes!

Hello, potential students! I am a Masters student in the Physics program at Fresno State, and graduated with honors from a B.S. Physics program this year. I have four years of physics tutoring experience; I have helped with everything from basic math to modern physics! Over a dozen people have employed me for semester-long engagements in the past, contact me if you would like references!
I enjoy one-on-one tutoring in the traditional style. If you have material, I can break it down and explain it in the most basic way to help you understand. Also, I enjoy helping students work through problems to gain a working understanding of their material. Doing is learning!

Hard working and responsible. I will not let you down.

Volunteer and worker at camp Kids Inc for two and a half years. Read to elementary students 3 times a week and help them with reading comprehension. Volunteered to be a mentor to a junior high girl. I helped her with advice but also just was a support for her when she needed it. Worked at a sports team camp teaching little kids from the ages of kindergarten through sixth grade how to play volleyball.
Students must understand that they have come to me to learn more. But I also want to enjoy the time I have with them so they feel like learning is fun.

THE BEST TUTOR YOU CAN FIND!

I have over 15 years' experience working with people and teaching different subjects as they related to my jobs. I have over 12 years' experience proofreading transcripts for court reporters. I was a training officer at the Madera County Jail where I trained new employees in working in the jail, but also report writing and testifying in court. I did my internship for college at the Juvenile District Attorney's Office and wrote and briefs for the court and prepared cases. I was a volunteer for the juvenile court system where I went out to homes and taught parents how to be parents and checked their homes to make sure the children were safe and cared for. I then wrote a report for the court on the progress of that family. I have always been the leader in any study group I have ever been in and have found myself teaching my fellow classmates the subject matter in several classes I've been i ... read more

I hope I can end up helping you. (:

I just graduated high school, and I was a really good student. I never failed any classes at all. I have taken advanced classes since I started middle school.Despite moving about three times, I always kept my school grade up no matter what. Tutoring people is a good way to help and give back to the community. I want to try to help others further their education.

More About This Tutor...

I am a senior in High School. I am a cross age tutor for Freshmen and Sophomores mainly tutoring in algebra 1 - Geometry. I also attend the Center for Advanced Research and Technology. I babysit on Tuesday and Wednesday at Northpark Community Church and help kids with their homework. Mainly with reading and penmanship. I used to be really bad in almost every subject availiable. And my parents hired a tutor for me. Once she taught me shortcuts and explained the process to me, I started to understand. I love working with kids, when they have a problem I have them write it on a white board or on a separate sheet of paper. Then from there I have them ask questions about the problem. Once they write out the questions I help answer them and they eventually understand. Once the problem is solved I have them write down their steps and do similar problems until they do not need to check the steps ... read more

During my time in college, I switched to become an educator as I discovered a passion to see the lives of children transformed. During my process of gaining my BS in Physical Education, I worked with many after school programs and taught both elementary and high school during my student teaching. Since college, I have taught and worked with children and youth around the world and currently volunteer in my local community, heading up an after school program that focuses on tutoring K-8th grade.
My greatest strength lies with my patience with children and flexibility to see what style of learning enables the child to best master the subject. I desire to lead children in finding the answer which will not only teach them the subject they are learning, but will enable them to reason and find the answers in other classes as well. It is simple to teach a child to memorize but to teach ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have tutored children in reading last summer. It was one of the most gratifying things I have done. I worked with English as second language children ranging from ages 5 to 13. We used a lesson plan and several activities to help children in achieving their reading level goals. Also, in my undergrad experience, I excelled in writing and was very good with meeting deadlines.
I am a very down to earth person especially when it comes to kids. I always try to lighten up the mood and make learning things interesting and fun. I don't like to dismiss when I see a child having trouble in something. Every person has a different way of learning, I try to cater to each of their needs.

More About This Tutor...

As a recent graduate from UC Berkeley, I have always held the upmost interest and passion in helping students achieve the best they could. I received my degree in American studies, this degree is designed to allow students to create their own educational path within Berkeley's campus. I designed mine to encompass child development, education, and psychology. With that, I have been able to learn different approaches in teaching individual learning types. I worked as a recreational program instructor for 3 years. There I helped students from the grades 3-6 with their homework on a daily basis, in all subjects.
My approach in teaching is unique. I have an autistic sibling and a son with an individualized education program, so my understanding of approaching children is on an individual basis. With my personal and professional experience, I have learned to be patient, understanding, fr ... read more

During my undergraduate schooling I taught one unit Freshman Writing Workshops at CSUMB. I also tutored extensively in English and composition. I have a minor in journalism and extensive writing experience. Professionally, I was an airline pilot for eight years. As a captain I worked in confined spaces for long periods mentoring junior pilots. I am well trained in fostering a positive learning environment. Currently I am preparing for grad school and a teaching career.
The most effective teaching style is to encourage self-directed learning. However, writing is a skill that requires patience and the proper tools. I believe in being present in the moment to give my students the focus they deserve. Also, I am warm natured and offer guidance and encouragement. Learning needs to be fun and rewarding with confidence in the mentor. I put my best effort into seeing this happen ... read more
