More About This Tutor...

I encourage students to question problem solving methods in order to understand the fundamentals. After an explanation of the material I often follow up with several example problems to help students test their mastery of the subject. I do not emphasize memorizing equations, because students do not learn about the physical phenomena by memorization. I also explain to students study techniques that have worked well for me in the past. I work well with both individuals and small groups.
I am a senior undergraduate student enrolled at Georgia Tech. My major is nuclear and radiological engineering, but i have experience in the fields of mechanical and civil engineering. I am most experienced in the subjects of mathematics, radiation physics, and electromagnetics including: algebra (I and II), trigonometry, differential equations, calculus 1 and 3, reactor physics, radiation protection/ ... read more

As a UCLA graduated student who majors in materials science and engineering, I am confident helping students to use the easiest and most understandable way to solve math, physics or chemistry questions. I also have more than 3 years experience in tutoring high school and college students.
How to make students understand what exactly I am talking about is always the priority keeping in my mind. I was a student, so I perfectly understand sometimes students may have no idea about what they are learning. And the responsibility of a tutor is to explain again and again to students until they really get the points.

More About This Tutor...

I am a 'relaxed' teacher, but maintain - or try to maintain - a good study pace. The individual I may be tutoring may require different approaches to try and learn the material at-hand; however, I have always found that with a positive attitude and a constructive approach to any learning 'issue' the solution is normally found between both the student and the tutor (as to the best study method works for the individual at-hand).
As an undergraduate student at the University of California Santa Barbara I found and nurtured a love to pass-on learned experiences to others. The program I was heavily involved with was named MESA (Mathematics, Engineering, and Science Achievement). Being an engineer, I tutored students at different High Schools and found great pleasure in seeing how other kid's faces could 'sparkle,' when they found-out that they could solve problems which they may have no ... read more

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 patient, easy going, considerate, focused on real life application of the science. My goal is to provide the best fundamentals for science education possible. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a constructivist approach to learning. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences from real world. A few good educators can make a world of difference in a child's education. I consider them as colleges.
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 un ... read more

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.
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.

Drafting is a Industial Arts subject. Students apply math skills to complete assignments. Math students can utilize practical uses to understand the theory of math. I will use many examples from my years of teaching to explain math. My tutoring background will also aid me in connecting the theory with the hands-on skills.
My industrial experience working as a design/drafter lead me to attend college at CSULB, graduating in 1974. I later worked 23 years as a teacher, incorporating math within the drafting curriculum. I was fortunute to teach many types of drafting. Each and every one of them had math applications from basic arithmetic to geometry built into the class. During the last 8 to 10 years since retiring I have also tutored at Sylvan, covering many topics for Elementary to High School. I completed a Masters Degree in Education in 1991 at CSULB as well.

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
