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

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 have earned an MS and an BS in Chemistry. During the course of earning my MS I taught introductory chemistry labs (inorganic) for three semesters at the university I attended. Which has given me an insight into what most professors are looking in their assigned homework. I have also in the past worked as a teaching assistant tutoring students in organic and inorganic chemistry. Through my experiences I have learned how to teach basic chemistry to both groups and on an individual basis. In addition I speak Japanese proficiently after living in Japan for two years and taking 6 semesters in college. I enjoy teaching at the introductory level. During the course of my experience teaching and tutoring, I especially learned how to simplify often difficult concepts in a way that the student would understand. I am patient and easy going and I realize that everyone learns at a different pa

I love to share my "hands-on" experiences of the physical world with the students I teach. No matter their age, students can be captivated by the physical world around them. Science doesn't have to be boring. Mathematics is the "language" of science. I taught my own children an appreciation for learning mathematical tools as a means of understanding the physical sciences. My daughter presently hold a doctorate in Mathematics from Dartmouth. My students learn to use calculus, trigonometry, algebra and geometry as tools in their daily experiences. The real world use of mathematics and science is the emphasis of my lesson plans. My passion is my teaching. I have used my BS in Chemistry to work in the technical, sales and EH & S fields in industry. I have spent the last fifteen years training engineers and technicians in the industrial world. After my children graduated from college

I enjoy working with older children especially those in high school. I strongly believe that all students can suceed in the classroom as long as they have a good understanding of the materials being taught. And I make it my mission to make sure my students gain this understanding and will use any measure or teaching tool to ensure this. I am extremely patient and understanding with students and my ultimate goal is to see them suceed. As a recent college graduate, I have a dedicated work ethic and a high performance level in the classroom which will translate onto the students I work with. I have earned a Bachlor of Arts in Biology from the George Washington University and plan to attend The George Washington University School of Medicine in the future. I have taken many courses in the field of biological sciences, chemistry, and mathematics. My past experience has been in tutoring studen

I am a graduate from the University California Riverside majoring in biology. During the time I attended college I was employed as a Supplemental Instruction Leader for organic chemistry and concurrently I have been tutoring students in organic chemistry. The Supplemental Instruction program was designed to address classes with high fail and withdraw rates in order to improve ailing students and increase the grades of students who want to do better. My job was to hold 6 hours of sessions on a weekly basis with the subject matter catered to the lecture material. During my time teaching these sessions I have had a very positive response and have experienced excellent success. My style of teaching has been the major factor in my success. I am very adamant in allowing my students to work through problems with my guidance rather than simply giving away the answer. I believe that this is essen

Besides having a concrete grasp on different areas of science, I am a very friendly and approachable person. My teaching style is to be assertive and give clear instructions. But, I also strive to make learning enoyable as possible. The best learning environment is when the student is having fun and enjoying what he is studying. I love to work with children of all ages. I also can teach young adults. I believe the relationship and communication between the tutor and tutee is the most important factor for a successful learning environment, and as the tutor I would strive to develop lesson plans to teach my student in the best way for his or her individual needs. Hello. My name is Karin. If you are looking for a science tutor to bring up your grades or to gain a better grasp on your subject material, then I may be able to help you.

I recently graduated from the University of California, Santa Barbara with a Bachelor of Science in Biological Sciences and strong background in Chemistry. I have completed the Organic Chemistry series with excellent grades. I also completed two quarters of Biochemistry with above average grades. I enjoyed learning these subjects and I would love to tutor this subject. My tutoring experience consists of eight months assisting fourth graders in reading. I have a great interest in teaching as I plan to go abroad to teach English sometime next year. My tutoring experience has been very rewarding, because results are evident within a couple of sessions with the students. I am patient, positive, and creative. As a student in Organic Chemistry I have learned that repetition is the best way to know the material. As a teacher for Organic Chemistry I believe that after the initial topic

As a recent graduate of the CSU East Bay chemistry program, I was given the opportunity to have personal instruction from many different professors. I was able to graduate within four years while working a part time job as an ice hockey official and participating in undergraduate research. I also worked as tutor both for the department of chemistry at CSU East Bay and as a private tutor. When I graduated in 2008, I immediately came to UCSB to study chemistry at the graduate level where I was a chemistry teacher assistant for over a year. I have much experience in writing and grading lab reports, solving and explaining chemistry and mathematics problems, and standing up in front of a classroom while explaining chemistry. Like everything I do in life, I like to have a plan to go about working through situations. I have had many years as a chemistry tutor and I have come across many di

I have earned a bachelors degree in Psychology, passed the CBEST, and have about four years of work experience as a tutor. I tutored students, ranging from grades K-12, in various subjects, but mainly in Mathematics and Language Arts/Reading. Also, in a previous position, I managed after-school tutoring programs for both elementary and junior high schools at the school site, in-home, and public location/library. Education is extremely important to me. As an educator, I think it is important to not only share one's knowledge, but to be able to adapt one's teaching style for each student. Through my experience, I know it is important to have patience and be open-minded with my students. I enjoy tutoring and being a positive role model to all my students.
