Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Port Costa, CA

I am an expert in math and statistics education with more than 15 years of experience tutoring math and statistics. I have been taught by some of the top professors in the country, if not world, and I bring those lessons to each of my tutoring sessions. I have taught a diversity of students throughout the Bay Area, CA and worked with students from ages 7 to 65, in high school, community colleges, and universities. My teaching style is friendly, engaging, confident and direct. My philosophy is that tutoring is a short-term service to assist students, and therefore, each student is limited to 8 sessions each semester.

My style of teaching is flexible. I cater my style to match the student. I have been drawing since 1999, and have worked as a commissioned artist, participated in open studios, and had work in local galleries. After taking a hiatus, I have decided to jump back into the world of art, but in a different capacity....teaching. I consider myself a lifelong learner, and improved over the years by using my own unconventional practice techniques in addition to the occasional figure drawing classes.

I had good experience teaching from 5 years old to 15 years old, from most basics to advanced,from counting to dialog, from reading stories to writing essays, from play to learn to serious discussions, from poems to experiencing the culture. For boys and girls. I believe that best way to really learn is hear it in Chinese, think it in Chinese, memorize it in Chinese and use it in Chinese. Also I'm very open to Business Chinese.

University of California-Berkeley graduate in individual major titled "Diplomacies to End the Division of Europe-1949-1990." Tutored English to German students in Germany, and returned to America to "give back". Specializing in one-on-one tutoring with resources and interactive activities found on the internet as well as worksheets on paper. I am very patient and have a record of success with my past students. They have averaged a 25% increase in test scores after a minimum of 4 lessons to a maximum of 10 lessons. Looking forward to gaining my teaching credentials this Fall. In an effort to conjure mutual respect, I approach each student more like a peer rather than a teacher, although they know who is an charge. With my elementary students, I have been known to kick a soccer ball around with them or read them a book... schedule permitting. "Play time" is my pro bono contribu

I have been successfully tutoring for over 10 years. I have helped students transform their grades from F's to A's. It has been a very rewarding experience, since my students get to understand the subject a lot better as well as improve their grades. I love working with students of all ages and teaching the many subjects I know. My specialties are math, science, and standardized testing. I am very patient and friendly. I am also able to explain an idea in many different ways. Many students tell me that I can explain concepts better than their teachers. Please check out my many positive reviews at https://www.wyzant.com/Tutors/Richard. I graduated with honors at UCLA with a BS in Chemical Engineering.

I have worked with a huge diversity of students and I find that students remember, relate, connect and understand metaphors, examples, and models best. So I tell my students stories about what they see in the world around them, relating lessons to the news, and showing examples that are so cool they cannot be forgotten! I love tutoring because my specialty is identifying the source of confusion a student might have in a given lesson and using my knowledge and experience to explain the science in a different way. This can include directing the students to a particular on-line resource and/or tool that can help them study outside of our tutoring time, which can save a dedicated student money in the long-run. I have been teaching/tutoring students in life science for over 20 years, but it all started with my BA from UC Berkeley in Integrative Biology. At Berkeley I tutored/taught part

I am Russian, graduate of the Moscow State University holding a PhD degree in linguistics from the same university. I am a certified teacher of Russian and English as a foreign language with more than 8 years of experience. My last position was at Cambridge Russian school (UK) where I taught Russian and literature to young learners. I implement a communicative approach as I believe that language lives within a context and within its cultural environment. I prefer to use several coursebooks in the classroom depending on the quality of explanations and exercises in these books. I also help my students to develop all possible skills of language proficiency, including reading, writing, listening and speaking, with the help of literature, mass media, video and audio.
