More About This Tutor...

Teaching is a passion. I like it very much. All the students can learn. As a teacher, one should be patient and teach with love. The efficient way to improve grade is to set up a good study habit and never give up. After I graduated from school, though I have been working in the industry rather than academic due to various reasons, I always want to get back to this career. I believe my industrial experience will bring positive impact to the student.
I was a teaching assistant for 3 years after I got my first M.S. degree in physics in 1985. I taught several science related classes in these years. I had a good relationship with students and communicated very well. I came to Univeristy of Notre Dame in 1988. While pursuing my degree, I was a teaching assistant to grade homework/exam and to tutor student for their homework. I got good feedback from students for the simple and pr ... read more

The most important term to categorize my teaching style is low pressure. Many years of education in math and science has shown me that the intensity and stress often associated with this branch of education is entirely counterproductive. A more supportive approach to learning and math and science produces greater understanding and breadth of knowledge as well as creativity.
For the past several years, I have been working full time as a researcher in the field of condensed matter physics. Before that, while a graduate fellow at the University of Pennsylvania, I acted as an instructor in laboratory skills and assisted teaching classes in both the physics department and the Wharton School of Business. In addition, I worked regularly with a National Science Foundation program to train high school teachers in the latest advances in nanotechnology. The most enjoyable part of those years ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

A good tutor must be a good communicator. When I tutor, I ask questions about what the student knows and what areas cause them difficulty, often requesting them to demonstrate their proficiency with the subject. I answer all pupils' questions as thoroughly as possible and empathize with them to alleviate frustration. Gaining a sense of the students strengths and weaknesses I set them up to practice accordingly. When studying new subjects I will demonstrate and often use real world examples to clarify a concept. When studying challenging or complex concepts, I emphasize practice and repetition, because I have found that experience is paramount to thoroughly understanding a subject.
I am a recent college graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering from California State University in Long Beach. Before that, I attended the California Academy of Math and Science. All ... read more

I enjoy working with kids (and teenagers), and do so compassionately and patiently. Patience with children is one of my strongest attributes for this position. They find me easy to talk to and relate. This not only enables me to teach them, but also allows us to learn from each other. I believe that children are the future, and each should be given ample opportunity to succeed. It is one of my goals to assist with this. Since graduating, I have felt a great need to give back. I will be a valuable addition to your team.
I graduated from the UCSB with a B.S. in Biochemistry in June, 2010. My willingness to work combined with my academic performance demonstrates my commitment to excellence. My grades are a good indication that I complete tasks with attention to detail and consistent follow through. I have extensive skills from my work in labs and my numerous other courses that are va ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Illustrative, intuitive and inductive is my 3-I's from the teaching experience. People understand things through different routes and it is not the material that is difficult, but typically it is the material doesn't ring a bell to the person's mindset. So, it is important to have the communication right and understand another person's mindset.
I have been working on the teaching assistant position at USC for many years. My Ph.D. is in physics and have done extensive research on mathematical physics. Overall, I have the qualification to teach at this position.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a science graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have earned a bachelor degree in Chemical Engineering, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of mathematics and science. I have gained extensive skills during more than 25 years working experience in various global industries (Europe and America) and attended courses in different fields of Physics and Chemistry. At this time I am working on the polymers processes for medical applications. During the last 20 years I have tutored students and trained workers in all aspects of physical and chemical process, mathematics, and sciences. I am also fluent in the Spanish language.
I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each one in different ways. I am available to help your child be prepared for a future in sciences. I am ... read more

I recently completed my Bachelors in Chemical Engineering this past September from UCI. My math skills are very strong. I'm also proficient in Chemistry and Physics. I have been hired as a private tutor multiple times for high school students for both math and science and have tutored friends in college level math as well. This has helped my teaching ability and helped develop one-on-one skills with my students.
I am patient and easy going with my students. I try to communicate with them to see what their specific needs are or where they need help most. When practicing homework problems I try to elaborate on them by showing them what they should look for before even starting the problem, what steps to take, and usually ask them a variation of the same problem. This has helped my students grasp the concept they are learning and has made it easier for them to remember how to com ... read more

Love to teach complex concepts in Chemistry with easy to understand analogies and provide variety of reference materials to generate interest in students. Clearly understand the student's needs and tailor the subject material, but also provide counseling and clear subject doubts.
34 years of research experience in Solid State Chemistry at leading national laboratories in India. About 15 years, I taught Chemistry at different levels, including for Masters' and Under graduate students. Also, taught General Chemistry for MCAT students on behalf of "Princeton Review" at California State University, Northridge.
