Also have been private tutoring for 3 years. Currently a Chemical Engineering student. I attended UC Berkeley for a year before leaving due to increased tuition costs. I am currently attending El Camino College and am transferring in Fall of 2014. I try to match my teaching style to the learning style of the student.

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

Since 9/2005 I have also worked as a private tutor. I am a big believer in explaining concepts repeatedly until a student understands so I have a lot of patience. You need to with math. I remember how it was learning all those concepts for the first time. I try to use steps as much as possible so my students always feel like they have a way to get to their destination from any point in a problem. Beyond that there's not to much to say. I'm a firm believer that a person does not truly understand a concept until they have practiced doing problems ove

I enjoy teaching and learning! I'm a life-long student and have fun acquiring knowledge. I hope this same attitude is contagious, for when you see learning as something that enriches your life, then the mind will serve you better. I like to give practical examples and modern day analogies. I like to keep learning fun, no matter what the age. A man once told me when I was purchasing a seat for my bicycle, "You should get the most comfortable seat, because you a lot more likely to ride longer." After he gave me that advise, and I bought a comfortable seat, I rode 22 miles the first time out. I don't want somebody to be quick to stop learning, because it's not comfortable, so we do what we can to make i

Currently just graduated with a Degree in Mechanical Engineering from California State University Long Beach. I have tutored several different courses throughout my career. Including Thermodynamics, Numerical Methods for Engineers, Mechanics of Materials, Calculus, Differential Equations and more. I had a high GPA in college and was a very hard worker. Usually the way I tutor is the student brings me homework problems or questions about a topic and I walk them through how to solve them. I like to use a white board when I tutor, it makes it easier to solve many different problems without having to use paper. I also prefer that students bring questions and homework problems to tutor sessions that way I have a better understanding of what they need to learn.

Ive worked as a tutor for about 2 years. I worked at a middle school as a intern for mathematics. Ive worked in a tutoring company teaching higher level math. I can teach anywhere from learing how to add to calculus 1. I volunteer at my church helping take care of the kids. My favorite thing about teaching is seeing the kids excited because they understand what they are doing. The point that i am satisfied with my work is when my client can do math without my help.
