The Tutor that Fresno State trusts to prepare its athletes!

Hello, potential students! I am a Masters student in the Physics program at Fresno State, and graduated with honors from a B.S. Physics program this year. I have four years of physics tutoring experience; I have helped with everything from basic math to modern physics! Over a dozen people have employed me for semester-long engagements in the past, contact me if you would like references!
I enjoy one-on-one tutoring in the traditional style. If you have material, I can break it down and explain it in the most basic way to help you understand. Also, I enjoy helping students work through problems to gain a working understanding of their material. Doing is learning!

SAT/GRE Test Prep Expert(8+yrs Experience. UC Berkeley Grad

Most tutors merely act as a solutions manual for off the shelf test prep books. I believe in providing my students a fully comprehensive curricula that covers both strategy and subject matter. Every student learns differently and at their own pace. I strongly believe in diagnosing and targeting student's weak areas.
I have enjoyed tutoring since high school. During college, I tutored college level math and chemistry. After college I worked for a large test prep company teaching SAT prep courses in various high schools. My education background is in biology (BA Molecular & Cell Biology, UC Berkeley) so I especially love tutoring science and math. My expertise is in standardized test prep (mainly SAT and GRE for graduate schools). My experience is not only tutoring and teaching, but also developing test prep material for both SAT and GREs

My comments on tutoring PSAT : Experienced in Math section but also knowledgeable in English Section

I've always enjoyed helping others understand mathematics. During my high school years i would voluntarily help my friends, and the classmates near me keep up with class lectures and provide them with tips to help them complete take home assignments. I know the importance of having a personalized method of teaching according to the individual and their specific needs. No one learns the same so we should not be taught the same!
Most of the students who require tutoring have trouble building on previous lessons they have learned. The problem is if a student fails to learn a concept in class by the time the teacher moves on, he/she will be left behind from that point on. The job of a tutor is to find these hold ups and patch them with a customized lesson plan to fit the students learning patterns. This is what i will do and i personally promise results in under a month

A Little Bit About Me...

As an honor student from the moment I entered school, I have been aware of the importance of education and the "no child left behind" policy. Although I have chosen the financial field for furthering myself, my love for helping students is undeniable. I always helped my peers through schooling, and in response have learned many communication skills needed. Regardless of student age, I am able to mold to their abilities and needs.
Direct and understanding of any needs.

Balance is the Key to Life

I was trained to be a teacher at CSU-Fresno, where I graduated in May, 1999. I substituted for 3 consecutive years in Fresno, Clovis, and Madera Unified School districts at grade levels 3-12. I received my Master's Degree in Sports Administration from the American Public University system in May, 2011, and graduated with Honors and a 4.0 GPA. I am currently trying to obtain my credential and hope to be an Athletic Director one day.
My teaching 'style' is a bit unique, in my opinion. By that, I mean that every child/student 'learns' differently, so I must 'adapt' my style 'on the fly' after determining what is the most effective approach/style/method for that individual student. In addition, the subject that I am teaching also affects my style and some 'tools' that I learned as a youngster and a teacher are also implemented frequently.

I began tutoring during my senior year of high school as a favor for a family friend. I soon realized the demand for private tutoring services and began taking it more seriously. While attaining my Bachelor of Science degree in biochemistry, I would frequently tutor friends who needed extra assistance. Years of laboratory experience allowed me to gain an understanding of scientific writing styles, and to expand my writing and researching techniques. After completing my university studies, I began tutoring many students from my local high in various math topics.
My teaching style can be described as casual and comfortable. Students who are having problems understanding certain concepts are better able to grasp difficult ideas when they feel they are in a comfortable environment where they are free to ask questions and discuss their problems openly. My goal is to be informative ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I'm a senior at Fresno State, soon I will have a B.A. in History, which certifies my ability to research, analyze, and write proficiently. Besides having attained writing skills and expertise in the Social Sciences, I have continually improved my knowledge in several academic fields out of my own initiative; I have honed my skills in Spanish Language and Literature, Englih Literature, math (geometry and algebra) and science (physics, human physiology, and biology). In the past I have tutored these subjects for five years.
I have known that teaching is my calling since I was a Freshman in high school. Learning how everything works has always facinated me and sharing that has been equally rewarding. I believe that learning can be fun when it is relevant and interactive. Students have to be given a vested interest in the learning process, asked questions. An environment of trust ... read more

My experience in the teaching field has been primarily as a substitute on a daily basis. I have some long-term sub assignments in my resume as well. For the past 7 years I have limited my assignments to "Home/Hospital". I meet 5 hours per week with each student to provide complete instruction in all subject areas for the student(s) unable to be in the regular classroom setting due to illness. It is very much a tutoring situation as 5 hours per week is not nearly enough to provide the detailed instruction available on a daily basis.
It seems to me that everyone can learn, in different ways and at different times. My approach is to have several options of which approach will be successful. Being a 1:1 teacher allows me the freedom and time to work with a student on a concept in a number of ways until the cognition sets in for him. Being enthusiastic and excited about the learnin ... read more

I have earned BS in chemistry and MS in computer science. I am able to tutor students in math, chemistry, and computer programming. My only goal is to make sure students understand the subjects well and satisfy my work.
First of all I love to teach and work together with parents and students. If you have questions, I have answers. I am not just having those answers for students, I will find out why students have those questions.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have tutored children in reading last summer. It was one of the most gratifying things I have done. I worked with English as second language children ranging from ages 5 to 13. We used a lesson plan and several activities to help children in achieving their reading level goals. Also, in my undergrad experience, I excelled in writing and was very good with meeting deadlines.
I am a very down to earth person especially when it comes to kids. I always try to lighten up the mood and make learning things interesting and fun. I don't like to dismiss when I see a child having trouble in something. Every person has a different way of learning, I try to cater to each of their needs.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a passionate educator, I was motivated to learn various teaching strategies that enhanced my desire to teach every student in need of an excellent education. To receive my Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education tremendously enhanced my knowledge to expand the horizon of every student that I taught. As an educator it is essential to know various teaching strategies for teaching math, reading, writing, science, social studies, art, and physical education. Various authentic assessments, integrated thematic units, hands on manipulatives, multicultural curriculum development , rubrics/portfolios, and building repoire with every student is of great significance in my teaching strategies. Therefore it is my goal to create autonomy for every lesson and to build resilience for every student I taught.

More About This Tutor...

It is my belief that teaching is an honor and a passion, not a profession. Everyone has a different learning style and teaching to an individual is very important. I also believe that teaching is as much a method of guidance as much as it is a method of instruction. Often times, students will learn on their own if you give them the opportunity for exploration. My goal as a teacher/tutor is to help students understand how they learn, and to inspire them to want to learn.
Throughout my high school career I maintained a GPA of at least 3.5. The same can be said for my college career so far. By majoring in Liberal Studies, I have gained an extensive knowledge of teaching methods as well as the ability to teach many different types of learners. I have put this knowledge and ability to use both last semester and this semester by tutoring students at Fresno State. This semester, m ... read more

Direct instruction is a proven and effective way of teaching students to learn. Cognitive coaching is also a method to enhance a student's learning and teaching them various ways to apply their cognitive abilities to better strengthen their study habits and skills.
As an educator, I've been able to provide evidenced based instruction to students who need extra help in challenging subjects. I have over 10 years of experience working with children from ages 3 and up. In addition, I have experience working with children with special needs and have worked with children with autism for 7 years using evidenced based methods such as Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) strategies.

More About This Tutor...

I have been working with students since I was in Middle School myself. I went to college to become a special education teacher and am currently working as a resource specialist. I work with students who have learning disabilities, are at risk, have emotional disturbances, autism, or just need a helping hand. I have also taught in general education classrooms.
I believe every child is capable of matching and exceeding our highest expectations. Every child learns differently and that is my approach. I don't believe in cookie cutter education. I design programs around students interests, needs, and abilities. I believe that positive feedback and reinforcement get better results than negativity, and it is my job to help your child be successful. It is my job to help your child buy into their own education and realize how great it is to be a lifelong learner.
