GED Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Northridge, CA

As a teacher, I aim to develop out-of-the-box independent thinkers, future professionals and researchers, who have strong sense of real world application of knowledge. My methods include: flexible presentation of the material (audio, visual, kinesthetic), real world examples to ground the material, the Socratic method of questioning to encourage critical thinking, data analysis and organization to encourage ownership of the material, self-aware student learning to develop efficient study skills, as well as career oriented planning to help students develop foresight and maintain a competitive edge. Most importantly, I believe in positive teaching methods to develop confidence with a "can do" attitude. I am an Ivy-league engineer with experience in pre-medical work. I have been tutoring formally and informally since high school. I have a passion for education and love to share that passion

I'm a graduate of UCLA Engineering with a passion for explaining how the physical world works through math and physics along with 14 years of tutoring experience in those subjects, test prep, and mentorship programs. The teaching strategy I believe in emphasizes subject fundamentals, a powerful and necessary tool for higher problem solving. This strategy has proven very effective regardless of the student's educational background or mental ability. Besides being knowledgeable, I am motivating, caring, and patient in guiding your student to academic success! EXECUTIVE FUNCTIONING: Executive Functioning is a separate realm that tutoring can assist in. It deals with cognitive processes including organization, time management, and study skills. Much of the difficulty students face in academic subjects can be attributed to the lack of executive functioning. They either cannot keep up

We are a team of experienced teachers and tutors each specializing in our own subject strengths. We provide excellent customer service, possibly immediate or same day for homework help or project completion. Online tutoring is also available with a shared online whiteboard for step-by-step problem solving. We strive to get to the root of the problem be it a test-taking challenge or a problem with foundational concepts. Not very fond of your teacher? Unfortunately, this is often the case. We follow your own pace of learning to achieve results. We love the moment when a student finally understands a topic and starts building self-confidence. We can then use this to change the way a student thinks about a subject resulting in continual improvement and achievement.

I have tutor elementary students since I started college back in 2009. I use to go to three different schools during my spare time to go help the teachers. I noticed that I really like it and therefore I decided to tutor High School students for a year. I never did got the opportunity to tutor Middle School students, but I have a brother who attends middle school and whenever he needs help I tend to help him. I want to become a teacher when I grow up because I am patient, responsible, and I love spending time with kids. To be honest I do not see myself doing anything else, but teach. I am always looking for possible ways to tutor even when looking for a job.

I go by Matt. I have been tutoring for the past 10 years and have had the opportunity to work with a diverse group of students having different skills and skill sets. After years of tutoring it has become clear that the best way to help improve a student's understanding in a subject area is by being able to give them the individualized attention and guidance that they may need. Because I am able to communicate with a diverse array of people and because of my proficiency in teaching the subject matter I intend to teach, I am able to reach out to my students and help them think critically while getting them to become more self-reliant in problem solving. This is partly due to my versatile teaching style as well as my ability to help my students think outside the box, especially as this applies to understanding complex mathematical concepts as well as being able to solve multi-st

I believe that learning should be fun and lifelong learners are made when students enjoy learning. Though I am very focused on using tutoring time productively, I also find ways of making learning fun and meaningful.
