I prioritize learning the fundamentals. I also teach study habits and strive to help the student so that they can continue to excel without my help. Throughout high school I was a teaching assistant at Iolani during the summer for English Language Learners. While attending Harvard University, I volunteered in a after school program in Boston's Chinatown community teaching second and third graders from low income families. There I helped them with homework and developed projects with fellow counselors to enrich their learning. Throughout my whole learning career I have tutored many of my own friends primarily in math and science.

I am starting my own SAT prep company this fall (see achieveexcellencehawaii.com). I am currently the SAT prep teacher (and upper school science teacher) at American Renaissance Academy in Kapolei. I have been tutoring various subjects for over 10 years, have about 6 years of teaching experience (with a focus on math, science, and ESL), and have taught numerous SAT prep classes and tutored a handful of students in SAT prep for other companies. I have been blessed to help many students raise their total SAT scores 300-600 points. I have a Master's Degree in Divinity from Azusa Pacific University (CA) and Bachelor of Arts Degree in Biology from the University of Hawaii at Manoa. I truly enjoy teaching and working with people; I am very personable, positive, and encouraging. I will also make the subject interesting and fun.

10+ years of experience working as an ESL teacher, camp counselor, teacher's aide, and after-school tutor. Patient and enthusiastic educator! Currently employed as an Environmental Educator with the Hawaii Nature Center while pursuing my M.Ed in Elementary Education from Chaminade University. Love teaching and love kids! I love teaching and believe that students benefit most from lessons tailored to their specific needs. I am patient and enjoy working with my students to determine which subjects areas they are confident in and which subject areas they struggle with. Learning should be an active process that allows the student to use a variety of materials e.g. worksheets, computer programs, textbooks, games, etc. I am a creative, flexible, dedicated educator and love to see my students progress through their studies.

Teaching is as much a process as learning. It can be carried out most effectively only when it's driven by self-motivation. I'm in teaching because I want to be. It brings me joy... gets me excited in the morning going to work. Such zest in easily reflected in the way I teach. My students feel my enthusiasm; they witness my taking a personal interest in their learning. In a dynamic cycle of influence, we fuel each other in our educational mission... be it thorny tests, understanding of concepts, or simply, having fun. More important than anything else, my ears, and heart are always open to them... they teach me how to teach. An ideal juxtaposition of East meets West is vested within me, and lives through the knowledge of cultural ethnology, protocols, and languages of inter-continental roots. I am experienced teaching multiple subjects kindergarten, primary, secondary, tertiary, includin

I love science and because I am excited about science, students I have taught previously have enjoyed the subject as well. And if I can assist them in understanding the material, they will be empowered to become problem solvers. I have an easy going personality which makes me approachable to students. My teaching mantra is "There are no stupid questions". I enjoy helping children and young adults succeed in their classes because as a result, they will have a positive influence in society. I believe that fostering scientific skills in students will lead them to generate solutions to the various problems that face humankind. I hold a B.S. degree in Molecular Biology with a minor in Biochemistry, and an M.S. in Human Cytogenetics with my thesis project conducted in the area of apoptotic signal transduction.

I enjoy teaching and strive to make my teaching sessions enjoyable for both tutor and tutees. I love to get the reward of the wide-eyed look that illuminates the face of somebody who has understood a difficult subject; I achieve this reward by approaching the same subject from different points of view thhat may illustrate better the "stuff of life that make things tic"(Biology and Chemistry.) I was born in Costa Rica and I have lived half of my 46 years of age in Hawaii. I am a Marine Biologist with more than 23 years of experience teaching diverse subjects (including Biology, Chemistry, and Spanish) to students, volunteers, tutees, and the general public at the College, and High School levels.

Do your science or math classes have you frustrated? These subjects can be complex, but I have over six years of experience turning them into manageable, even fun, topics. I use analogies, case studies, current events, and that student’s particular interests to keep subjects interesting. I tailor my lessons to the unique learning styles of each student. My students learn by gaining a true understanding of the subject and not by regurgitation of random facts – memorized information alone tends to be forgotten immediately after the test. In addition, my background in journalism has honed my ability to synthesize information and convey complex information in a straightforward manner. Over the past six years, I have been a collegiate instructor, a private tutor, and a tutor for elementary, middle school, and high school students in science, math, reading comprehension, writing, and his

I’ve also had extensive tutoring experience since I was an undergraduate in biochemistry and have learned how to communicate effectively with students that are having a tough time with math. I specialize in math and science, but am also able to help with reading comprehension and all types of writing. I was the assistant editorials editor for the University of Hawaii Manoa newspaper, Ka Leo, and have worked with many writers to improve clarity and grammar.

From my previous work experience, I have had the privilege of assisting others utilize the power of technology to help them achieve their goals. As an IT Administrator, I would present creative software solutions to our end-user by using tools that they already possessed. In my spare time, I have helped fellow co-workers with their college assignments, which included math and written assignments. I have been found to be an excellent resource for sharing ideas and being able to provide constructive criticism. I have also shown others how to systematically work through difficult problems by starting with our current knowledge base. For the past two years, I have worked for a fast-paced software development company. I have learned about many new technologies and have proven to be a very good student.

When I was a freshman in college, I knew that my future was in my hands. I befriended and contacted my chemistry professor and zoology advisor. I worked in both of their labs, and I was only a freshman! By studying in their research groups, I gained the experience necessary to intern at Sea Life Park Hawaii. In fact, I was published in 2007 after working for Dr. Charlie Cox in the Chemistry Department. Recognizing the need for more hands-on research experience, I found another opportunity with another professor in cellular biology. In addition to conducting this research, I co-wrote the research proposal for the Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program. This was an honor, for we were awarded funding for the project! Teaching requires a patient, easygoing individual since not all students learn at similar speeds. There is not one single way to teach, so it is important to encompass di
