Hello! My name is Mihir Kumar, and I recently graduated from USC under the full-tuition Trustee Scholarship with dual degrees in Human Biology and Economics, and a minor in Mathematical Finance. I’ve been tutoring since 2016 and am currently saving up for medical school, so I'm really looking forward to working with new students! Over the past few years, I have tutored over 75 K-12 students in standardized testing (primarily ACT/SAT/PSAT), math (from elementary operations through Calculus), the basic sciences, English, reading, writing, and more totaling over 2500 total hours (both online and in-person). Many of my students have improved their SAT and ACT scores by 250-350+ points and 5-8+ points, respectively, too. Having experience with the internal workings of the USC admissions process, I also provide college admissions assistance and have assisted many students in earning adm

For the last five years, I served as a biological speaker in a teenage association in the community center of my district in China. It was my responsibility to solve the problems that students brought and teach them to connect to the real world. Outside of school campus, I have not only been a group homework helper for some elementary school students, but also an in-person tutor of math, Chinese and visual art.

Not all students are successful and the trick is to identify the reasons behind the lack of success. The issues that students have with school are diverse; procrastination, lack of organization, failure to plan, lack of awareness, ineffective habits, learning disabilities, and differences are all possible explanations for school failure. I work with students one on one to help them pinpoint where things break down for them and then work with them to find strategies to help them manage the skills and material they are asked to learn and master. I am there to guide, not just instruct. I have been in education for 16 years. I specialize in working with students with ADD/ADHD, specific learning disabilities as well as students who underachieve. I have a Master's Degree in Special Education and have successfully worked with students all over the Bay Area to help them realize their full p

I'm an experienced tutor specializing in Chemistry and Mathematics at the high school and college levels. I earned my PhD in Chemistry from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Chennai. I was a postdoctoral fellow at Clemson University, SC, and have several year's experience in the pharmaceutical industry as a Scientist and continue to help students in learning concepts in chemistry. I consider myself an expert problem solver, and can help my students to improve their problem solving skills. I've helped numerous high school and college students with their courses, including High School Chemistry, Honors Chemistry, AP Chemistry, General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physical Chemistry, Algebra(I&II), Geometry, Trigonometry, Pre-calculus, Calculus, and Probability. I am extremely patient, kind and help students to better understand the essence of the course, and to establish solid fou

I present concepts in a variety of ways, such as: "hands on," visually, problem-solving, and inquiry-based. I reinforce the concepts each time we have a session. I tutor with a style that is accepting, positive, and where my student's feel comfortable enough to ask questions and become actively involved. All my students are successful learners who have fun learning! My passion in life is teaching, where I can tutor students on a 1:1 basis! My teaching / tutoring experience includes classroom high school teaching, where my specialties were Math, Science, and English. Also, I tutored middle-schoolers in ESL, Social Studies, and Literature. I enjoy tutoring adukt learners on English and Citizenship. And finally, I have taught private piano lessons and music reading.

My goal as a tutor is to build the confidence of my students. I teach by extracting the information that they already know and offering supplemental information when necessary. I try to make math safe, fun, and interesting for each student I work with. Since 2004 I have been working in the Math Learning Center at Cabrillo College. I tutor a wide variety of math levels, ranging from pre-algebra through differential equations. In the years I have worked there I have become well known as a tutor who can help a student with any question they have.

Math is an especially intimidating subject to many, but learning at an individual pace is often the only barrier to complete understanding. I am patient, and willing and able to explain the workings of different concepts that cannot be covered in a classroom setting, in as many different ways as the student needs. On the other hand, I am mindful of the individual’s learning style and understanding, and will adjust the pace, slower OR faster, to the student. I bring the same mindfulness and attention to the student to private music lessons. I am enthusiastic about both math and music, and about learning in general. I love to offer information and explain, but I most love watching students come to an understanding of their own. Because of the opportunities education provides, it has always been a high priority in my life. I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Applied Mathematics, which ha

My approach to teaching math and science is to thoroughly prepare a student by first emphasizing the fundamentals. Too many students get "lost" if advanced concepts are taught too soon. Then, once a student is ready, the studies should emphasize the students strengths and interests to the utmost possible. As an engineer and mathematician I have experience in all areas of Aerospace engineering,including management and mentoring of engineers over much of my 44 year career at Lockheed Martin. I have also tutored math, phyics, and other related subjects.

I work as a partner with the student and their parents, tailoring each tutoring program to the student's needs. I especially enjoy helping high school students excel in Math. One of my recent tutoring students went from receiving an F on Algebra2 exams to receiving a B, after only 2 weeks of tutoring! I'd love to help your student improve their results in Math class, and prepare themselves for a successful college career. I'm also available to tutor in SAT preparation, computer subjects and French. I have an M.S. in Computer Engineering, an extensive background in Mathematics, and worked for many years as an engineer in Silicon Valley companies. I thoroughly enjoyed school and excelled at test-taking, which I know is an area of anxiety and difficulty for many students. I believe that students will have the best possible future lives if they have the best possible education. I help st

As a graduate of the University of California, Merced with a BS in Biological Sciences, emphasis track in Microbiology & Immunology, I mastered the knowledge of how the human systems interact amongst each other at a cellular and organs level in addition to the structure of the body’s fighting mechanisms to defend itself against foreign pathogens. I have also gained advanced laboratory experience which built my fundamentals of composing a scientific laboratory report at a professional scientific journal level. Furthermore, my undergrad experience consisted of advanced calculus, physics and statistical courses that challenged my critical thinking abilities. During my last two years, I have tutored students in English, math, and science. Every person is unique and the style of instruction to be given to each student must be adequate to the level the student can sustain. I believe all studen

As a graduate student at UC Berkeley, I was a TA for twelve semesters in a range of physics classes. In 2002 I won the UC Berkeley Outstanding Graduate Student Instructor award. After graduating I was a lecturer for 2 years at 50% time. This was at California College of the Arts in San Francisco. There I developed and taught new coursed in math, physics and programming that were fine tuned for the needs of the architecture students. I can make complete sets of student evaluations available to you on request --- they are very favorable. I spent many office hours working one-on-one with the weaker students, and so I have considerable tutoring experience. As a classroom instructor, I am conscious that one needs to constantly engage with and interact with the class. I always taught in a tutorial style, where after I've introduced the material the students must solve a puzzle or problem based

I believe that each student should learn to be in charge of their own education. My goal is to help them achieve that goal. I am not quick to jump in with the answer but can wait patiently for them to work through the problem. Since I learned by a very different method than my teachers tried to teach, I look for a students learning style. If he is not getting the concept, I'll try another or even invent one on the spot. It is such a joy to see the light come on in a student's eyes. I love working with students. One on one is even better than teaching groups of thirty in my book. I also worked ten years as a Physical Chemist where I had to know Math and Physics as much as Chemistry. I have taught Math, Physics, Biology in addition to Chemistry, and tutored in all these areas. I also graded essays for the state of Georgia and so I could sharpen any students essay skills. I have

My tutoring style is described as follows: 1) I encourage learning by doing 2) I encourage learning by thinking: By interpreting ideas, sythesizing and analysing them and by critical revision of those ideas 3) I encourage students to reflect on their learning 4) I give precise instructions to my students: On what students should do, ways and methods for learning, resources they should use for learning. 5) I pack necessary knowledge and transfer it to students in most efficient ways: I prefer to use visual aids, demonstrate practical examples, write resources (summaries,extracts) for my students. To sum up, I would do whatever it takes a tutor to help students learn. Tutoring experience: I started tutoring when I was pursuing Bachelors in Science majoring in Math. I taught a variety of students of age group from 5 to 17. I taught Arithematic, Numbers theory, Pre- Algebra,
