Only four years after immigrating from Belgium to the US, self motivated success and ambition allowed me to graduate Valedictorian of my high school class. I was offered a full ride scholarship to UC Berkeley, the #1 public university in the nation. I was pleased with my accomplishments and proceeded to keep following my dream of becoming a pharmacist. I was an Honors college graduate with a BA in Economics and a minor in Spanish but, because I was still interested in health care, my courses ranged from macroeconomics and Spanish American literature to biology, physics and organic chemistry. Extracurricular activities as a volunteer tutor and mentor have allowed me to develop the skills and patience to be an effective and compassionate teacher. Although each child has his or her own style of learning, I believe in bringing out their highest potential by feeding them with the kind of cons

I discovered my passion for instructing, tutoring, and working with youth during my experience as a substitute teacher. I understand that every student has their own unique way of learning, and I believe in a patient approach that will help a student build confidence in the subject matter, and develop good study habits. I think the greatest legacy a person can leave in life is a good impression on younger generations, and therefore I take each teaching opportunity seriously.

Therefore, I applied to the top boarding school in the country, Phillips Exeter Academy, and was granted admission! After high school, I attended the independant ivy, Wesleyan University, where my learning continued, not only in the classroom, but also outside of the classroom.

As a graduate from the University of the Pacific, I was able to attain the honor of Magnum Cum Laude while pursuing my BA in Psychology. The extensive research required in my field has allowed me to achieve a high level of writing skills, analytical skills, and math skills. For the past four years I have more specifically enjoyed being able to tutor students with mathematical difficulties, although I have also tutored in grammar, writing, and Spanish. Over the years I have been able to work with all ages ranging from preschoolers to adult students. What has struck me most is the vast array of learning styles. I take pride in my ability to successfully and effectively adapt to each and every student I mentor. My strong belief in all students to do well has been the greatest influence in my overall teaching style. I do not give the answer to a problem or show the student how to do it. In o

I am a enthusiastic 21 year old in a 51 year old body. I am able to reach students of all ages and to find out what they require to learn.

I am warm hearted and fun loving and I enjoy working and being energized by the youthful spirit. I have been teaching music for over 30 years but found out 5 years ago I have a great deal to offer as an academic tutor. My first belief is that you have to make a student believe in themselve. You do this by letting them know that the system has failed them, but together we can bridge the gap of what you need now to get your grades caught up and work backwards to learn what you have missed. I driven to find innovative ways to make them learn, like using coins and other objects like liquid containers. Making jo

My teaching style is progressive. I believe education should be entertaining, however not entertainment. I enjoy challenging my students, however to do this effectively it is important that they remain engaged. One of the ways in which I do this is to encourage students to think creatively. Creativity is the key to success with education. Not only does it foster confidence and positive self-esteem, creativity keeps the brain on its toes, so to speak, by continually challenging students’ abilities and forcing students to expand beyond their academic comfort zone. Teaching students to develop new ways to solve problems generates the confidence needed to succeed not only in school but also in life. My interest in becoming a tutor stems from my life long passion for teaching and learning. Throughout the past eight years, I have focused my efforts on soaking up my education and research exper

My teaching style is somewhat relaxed so that I can encourage my students to open up. When I first begin tutoring someone I let them do things their way rather than tell them how to do something. Then, I tell them that if their method isn't working, we will try it my way. In addition to teaching them the material, I try to pass off good studying habits as well. For example, rather than help a student write a paper by simply editing their paper, I try to show the student how helpful brainstorming is, and/or how to create an efficient, simple outline. I also try to find at least one thing a student is good at and encourage him in that area. Once a student realizes he is good at something, he feels more confident in other areas as well. I started tutoring in NYC when I was a junior in high school. I tutored a sixth grader and an eighth grader, and helped them with all of their homewo
