Science is one of my top subjects!

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 can definitely tailor the tutoring session to your specific needs. Please check out the extensive list of the subjects that I am certified to tutor. My ultimate goal is to provide a ... read more

The beginning of everything, I've got three younger sisters and there has always been a fair amount of helping out where they're concerned. I've babysat since I was twelve and for the past few years I've worked as a nanny. It's not exactly what you would expect for a tutor but I've been offering homework help in those areas for many years.

A Little Bit About Me...

As an Adult Education teacher I taught learners from High School age through 70 year-olds. I taught office occupations; ESL; and GED, ABS, HS diploma and citizenship. I developed knowledge and skills in many content areas and in the management of students. I have taught post-graduate classes in computer applications for different content areas, reading and writing for elementary students, discipline, character education, and working with ELLs.
I am patient, have a good sense of humor, and strive to help students achieve to their ability. I have great faith in children's ability to develop proficiency in any content as long as they have adequate support. One size does not fit all in education and I use differentiation and different teaching modalities, with a lot of realia and manipulatives, to meet the students' learning styles and preferences, and the content area. I rely on ... read more

I have been in the field of education for approximately 14 years of which the last 8 years have been special education. I have worked with students of all ages, on all skill levels and many with learning disabilities through 8th grade. I was a high school art teacher for two years and I worked in a college library for four years. I am able and willing to work with students of all ages. My emphasis has been the field of language arts; however, I taught middle school math for students with learning disabilities for two years. I am capable of assessing student's skill levels in both math and language arts. I feel that this is a strength.
Since I have worked students with a wide variety of learning issues; I feel that I am well prepared to assess and deliver educational materials and instruction to any student. I understand that each student has his learning style and prefers sp ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

"No one will care what you know until they know that you care." I have great enthusiasm and passion for teaching and I make great connections with students. I know all people are capable of change and growth. I strive to help create life-long learners who are motivated to grow. My instruction and coaching techniques are very user friendly, and have been very successful for high academic achievers as well as students who struggle with academics and are very resistant to anything that has to do with school.
As a high school teacher for 13 years, I have had a profound impact on the academic and personal success of a great majority of my students. I have won many "inspirational teacher awards" and have been identified by many of my students as the teacher most responsible for their success. They have said that I have made learning interesting, fun, and rewarding for them because I ... read more

I am patient yet firm. My personal background in mathematics was fairly rigorous, so I always make my students show their work. As the subject material gets tougher, it becomes more critical to be able to check all stages of one's work. One of my math teachers gave me some sage advice: "Math teachers are lazy. We find the quickest and shortest route to a solution." I've taken this tongue-in-cheek wisdom to heart in my own way. While there is only one single solution for any math problem, there are infinitely elegant ways to arrive at that solution. I show my students different ways to solve problems because flexibility is key. Mathematics is a great way to keep one's thinking nimble and that can help throughout one's education.
I earned a degree in Applied Mathematics and have always been "the go to guy" when my friends high school aged kids need help with their math homework. I h ... read more

Many of my friends and colleagues say that my choice to become a teacher was the right choice. They have said that because of my enthusiasm, understanding and patient attitude, along with my knowledge of the subjects I tutor, are what would make me a good teacher. I believe that practice and a lot of dedication can lead to perfection! I also believe that no child is incapable of learning a certain subject. Everyone just learns differently, and in every tutoring experience it is my goal to learn how to cater my teaching techniques to the unique student in front of me so that I can be the most effective teacher possible.
Teaching has always been my passion and skill. I have many experiences working with other students so that they could learn a specific subject better. During my stay at Contra Costa College, I became a certified tutor and became responsible for tutoring students i ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a recent graduate from the University of California Riverside, I have earned a bachelors of science degree from the institution. During my time at UCR I developed a passion for the sciences which was taught by dedicated professors who served as my mentors. After being exposed to many professors who have a passion for teaching, I want to also give back to the community in this way.
I really like working with all sorts of people. There is no satisfaction greater than when I can see the spark in a person's eye when they comprehend materials they had not before. Everyone can learn any material they set their mind to if they have the motivation and the proper learning environment, and of course the right teacher. It is my desire to be a great teacher, educator, and mentor.

Starting from 2009 till present time I have been a substitute math teacher in West Contra Costa Unified School District and I was an volunteer academic tutor for El Cerrito High School After School Program in 2009. Through the years that I taught I have developed an understanding of students' trouble in learning and could explain the details of material in a way well acceptable to students.
I love teaching and working with high school and middle school students. I believe every child has ability to learn math though their learning styles are different. I am patient and hard working. When I was teaching at OSU, the TA's served in Tutor room one hour per week so I gained confidence and teaching skills in ... read more
