It's harder than it looks.

I have 5 years experience teaching elementary and middle school students with 1 year of teaching a special needs student with Autism. Additionally, I have been a university tutor in Chemistry, Physics, and Mathematics employed by UC Santa Cruz for the last two years where I tutored and led large group sessions targeted toward understanding the material, key study skills, and development of study groups.

During my travels through school i have had my fair share of peer study groups to help with the learning of the material to pass classes. I have also helped allot of my peers with understanding as well. I have tutored through Lassen Community College helping students who were struggling with the concepts of math at lower and higher level classes. One of my professors called me an asset to any tutoring group or peer study group in a recommendation letter to Merced College for tutoring. I am very understanding and try to explain things in ways that it clicks.

My comments on tutoring Calculus I : Calculus is fundamental to the study of Physics. I am exteremely proficient in this form of mathematics.

Throughout high school I tutored students aged 9-14 in a variety of subjects ranging from math to music. I have also tutored informally as a college student, mostly helping coach peers through lower-division physics or math series. In addition, I volunteered for 5 years as a teachers assistent in an elementary and middle school setting, so I understand the dynamics of working with (sometimes large) groups of students.
Problem solving is the best way to learn a technical skill. For instance, in mathematics homework usually consists of a set of problems that the student must solve. By watching how students approach and solve these problems, I can both assess the student's understanding of the material and help them make the logical connections needed to better understand the material. Additionally, I encourage students to adopt the mentality that science and math can actually be fun ... read more

I am a recent graduate of Santa Clara University. I have a lot of experience in tutoring students in math of all different ages. Being a math major, a lot of my friends in college would come to me for math help when they weren't comfortable with getting a random tutor. I was a TA for several different math courses over the course of my 4 years at Santa Clara in which my responsibilities were to grade daily homework assignments and quizzes. From participating in that I have gained experience finding mistakes in students work and making suggestions on how to approach a problem better. In one of the most recent classes I graded for (a college level pre-calculus class) I held private tutoring and study sessions at my own free will to help them work through problems and to help prepare for exams and quizzes.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love helping a student come to a mathematical conclusion on his/her own. My 7th graders discovered the distributive prop through an investigation about theater seats. I also remember showing my Alg2 students why borrowing works using $1, $10, and $100 bills and trading with the bank. They were so excited to finally understand subtraction. What a thrill for me! However, when a frustrated Junior was having trouble calculating determinants correctly, it simply didn’t make sense to start at the beginning and help her discover how determinants work. When tutoring, I try to invest time in helping students fully understand concepts when it makes sense to. But I do keep in mind that traditional methods are sometimes the better choice.
Throughout high school and college, I belonged to several tutoring organizations. I took multiple extra classes on education and tutoring techn ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have always had a natural curiosity for learning Mathematics and a desire to teach others. I remember being a student in Elementary School struggling to understand a particular concept and then imagining myself explaining this concept to others once I achieved understanding. Mathematics has always been challenging for me but noticed that as long as I was persistent I always acquired knowledge of the material. I was exposed to many different math instructors and many of them motivated me to learn mathematics and inspired me to want to teach. I am very patient when I explain concepts to others and enjoy coming up with different ways of explaining these concepts.

I received a Bachelors of Science in Materials Engineering from San Jose State University and have had over 5 years of engineering experience. I have an educational background in physics, math, chemistry, engineering and biology.

I enjoy teaching grades 7 thru college level. I am patient, communicate well and eager to make learning fun. I feel that most people love to learn they just have to find a reason to find it interesting and applicable to the world around them. I try to introduce concepts as they apply to real world circumstances.
