A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated Magna Cum Laude from USC with a degree in Business and have spent six years as an actuary working in a professional and math-oriented field for major firms (Blue Shield and Mercer). I have a strong background in math dating back to high school where I scored an 800 on the SAT math section as a junior. I also bring experience working with youth. I tutored math to junior high, high school and college students off and on during past decade. I worked three summers as summer camp counselor, spent one summer as a behavioral coach for autistic children and taught math one summer at private academy.
People are always surprised when they find out I'm a math nerd. I'm outgoing, I like to joke and I play sports. But believe it or not, I actually do enjoy math and this is one of the biggest reasons for my success as a tutor/teacher. I don't fake my enthusiasm and this helps e ... read more

I understand how important it is have a good teacher when it comes to biology and the sciences. It takes time, patience, and deep understanding of the material to effectively learn it. On my way to earning my Bachelor’s degree and now working on my Masters, I have developed techniques that have worked for me and other students that I have taught in the last few years. Biology isn’t easy, but it is my job to make it easy to learn. It is all about effectively using the time you have to learn the material. Any child can learn anything if he is taught the material the proper way. I believe education is the most important thing for a child. I want to help them strive in school, because it will ultimately be better for them in their lives.
I am a recent graduate of California State University Stanislaus with a degree in Biology. Biology has always been a passion of mine. I am curr ... read more

As controller and supervisor for a manufacturing company I was responsible for the accuracy of the accounting data generated by my staff. Part of being a supervisor is to be a teacher. My experience has taught me that it is equally important to teach the staff not just how to complete a task but also why the accurate completion of the task is important. I have found that if a staff member understands the objective of the task and its relevance, then the staff member is in a better position to troubleshoot problems on his or her own and thus becomes a more valuable member of the team. As a high school teacher, I understand that people learn by different methodologies and also at different paces. Patience is the key.
I possess over 20 years of managerial and financial accounting experience including several years of staff supervision. Most recently, I was controller (eight years) ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style focuses on the student and his/her struggles. I really try to make the student understand the topic at hand and how to study it effectively. Studying techniques are very important and I introduce those techniques to the student. I really guide the student step-by-step through his/her struggles and to build their confidence. I change their mentality to a positive one. I enjoy working with others and I use all the resources that I can to make the student understand the topic. I usually give extra practice problems and I really challenge the students thinking pattern to make sure they understand the topic.
I have experience working with children and tutoring high school students on multiple subjects (math and science). I have also tutored in subjects such as economics and how to study effectively. I have taught subjects in small group settings as well. I hol ... read more
