More About This Tutor...

When I was in high school I tutored other students in science and math. In college I majored in psychology (BA University of Missouri), and then statistics (MA University of Missouri, PhD Carnegie Mellon University). I taught and tutored all levels of undergraduate statistics, with emphasis on behavioral science majors. In my classes and tutoring I met students (and classmates) from diverse parts of the world.
Learning requires practice, so I emphasize practice to mastery, following Kumon. In tutoring, it is usually the case that the students can learn most of the subject without a tutor, but that each student who has difficulty has a difficulty not shared by most other students, hence not covered in class or homework. For tutoring, I learn what the students can already do well, what they can do with difficulty, and what they can't do yet, and I learn what is limiting their ne ... read more

I primarily focus on concepts and fundamentals. Most often I try to follow the instructors teaching style so the student can go to the class and does not feel lost. Although sometimes, I try different techniques based on how well the student is doing. I am very patient and I try my best to keep the session interesting and also at times challenging.
I am currently a Post Graduate student at UCSD. I have been tutoring for the past 3-4 years. I have primarily tutored High School and Undergraduate students. My area of expertise is Math. I can tutor any math up until Advanced Calculus.

A Little Bit About Me...

Since I graduated with a BS in Environmental Science, I had been a high-school tutor for more than 6 years helping students in the subjects of Math and Science, specifically, Algebra, Geometry, Physics, and Biology. I handled, on the average, 8 students daily - some in groups while others individually. I have learned to understand each student's needs and characters and the approaches in dealing with them. I now have a Masters Degree in Accountancy and believe in the importance of education in one's life. I would like to continue helping students not just to strive but to excel.
I believe each student is different and as such, each should be handled differently. My more than six years of tutoring experience provided me extensive background on students characters and approaches in better presenting the subject matter. At the end of the day, it is important that the student has lear ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I prefer to approach every student very slowly in the beginning to understand exactly where their trouble are. Listening is the most important attribute that a tutor can have followed by patience. It's my job to identify where the student's problem are and address those problems. My experience has tought me that most people just need a new perspective to understand certain materials at hand. Providing applications for someone learning new concepts is key for their development because the student understands how the concepts they're learning applies in the real world. I have been told by many of my former students that this is the reason they learn the concepts so well.
I finished my lower division coursework at a california community college (AHC) and earned a total of six associate degrees. While at the community college, I administered practice test for students in MESA in mathem ... read more

I retired last year (2008) after 30 years as a Public Servant (law enforcement) with the City of San Diego. I have also retired from the Naval Reserve as a Master-At-Arms Chief in 2006. I have taught, counseled and mentored individuals throughout my career. I initially studied Physics and Math at college level and changed major after employment with the city. I attained my BS degree in Criminal Justice. My future plan is to transition to a teaching profession and teach a subject I love most, and that is Math.
I love teaching young minds and inspire them to learn Math. My goal is to show the value of doing math problems. Practice, Practice, Practice, the more math problems done, the more he/she will comprehend. I will approach Math problems as an enjoyable challenge that can easily be overcome.

I have been a straight-A student my entire life and I recently graduated from the University of New Hampshire with a 4.0 GPA. I earned my B.S. in Physics (Astronomy emphasis) with a minor in Applied Mathematics. Though my expertise lies in mathematics and the sciences, I am also knowledgeable in topics ranging from history to English grammar and composition. Much of my academic success is due to my ability to prepare for exams. I scored a 32 on the ACT, as well as perfect scores of 800 on the SAT2 Writing and GRE Mathematics exams. I gained teaching-related experience during my year as an Instructional Assistant, in which I assisted students with math, science, English, and GED exam preparation. At the college level, I spent 2.5 years tutoring in physics, math, and astronomy, as well as a semester in a college-level general physics class working as a teaching assistant.

One thing I enjoy doing is solving problems through cause and effect with illustrations. All it takes is a few deserving educator who is willing to make a change in deserving young people.
Through the years I’ve worked in Engineering and Capital Projects as Engineering Technician, I’ve develop a healthy and superb work ethic striving for excellence in seeking professional growth.

I have been tutoring for at least 15 years, taught high school physics for three years and college physics for one year. During my time as a tutor, I worked with at least fifty students, many of whom set weekly or more frequent appointments with me. My tutoring was mainly in HS math and physics, but I have also worked with a number of college students and students returning to professional training programs like nursing school.
First an foremost, I am a responsive teacher who checks for understanding frequently and modifies my approach according to student needs and learning style. I am a thorough teacher who focuses on breaking down important concepts for students. I also find it useful and effective to establish a good working relationship with the students I teach or tutor.

I am a very personable person that cares deeply about everyone I meet. I have more than an academic interest when I tutor, and thus really care about helping an individual in the way that they need it. I am willing to try a variety of techniques to help a student understand and know that everyone learns differently. I want to help others by making a difference for them in any way I can. I have been blessed with understanding and would love to help others understand!
As a graduate of the University of Colorado at Boulder in Integrative Physiology, I love learning and I love helping others learn! I find biology so incredibly fascinating and find so much satisfaction in helping others to succeed. I was a math tutor and mentor throughout high school and never formally tutored in college, but took every opportunity I could to help anyone who needed help understanding the material. ... read more

As both a native of Chula Vista and a UCSD graduate, I have seen and experienced what it takes in order to grow up from a local teenager to a qualified adult ready to take on the world. I have attained a BA in Music, which actually required an additional understanding of math, physics, and computer science, as well. My tutoring experience includes work with students at both the high school and college levels. At the high school level, I have worked with students individually and in a group setting, whereas my work with college students has been primarily on an individual basis. The subjects I have tutored include Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, Calculus, and Computer Science.
Often times, a person who is failing a subject might feel like a lost cause, that no one can help them. However, my belief is that all students are worth helping, that each individual has a righ ... read more

I have about 5 years experience working in Christian schools using ACE curriculum, alpha and omega, and, also B. James. I also studied in Mexico, so I am able to teach in Spanish and English. My strong areas and more current subjects are Elementary math, pre-algebra, Algebra I, Geometry and also some trigonometry.
It's my desire to teach student how not to look at math and other subjects as just "another" subject but to learn how to apply to everyday problems and different areas of life. This adds another perspective to it. I love working with young people and bring out the best in them by surrounding them with possibility
