Experienced Ivy League Engineer & Premedical Tutor & Mentor

As a teacher, I aim to develop out-of-the-box independent thinkers, future professionals and researchers, who have strong sense of real world application of knowledge. My methods include: flexible presentation of the material (audio, visual, kinesthetic), real world examples to ground the material, the Socratic method of questioning to encourage critical thinking, data analysis and organization to encourage ownership of the material, self-aware student learning to develop efficient study skills, as well as career oriented planning to help students develop foresight and maintain a competitive edge. Most importantly, I believe in positive teaching methods to develop confidence with a "can do" attitude.
I am an Ivy-league engineer with experience in pre-medical work. I have been tutoring formally and informally since high school. I have a passion for education and love to share that p ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

We are a team of experienced teachers and tutors each specializing in our own subject strengths. We provide excellent customer service, possibly immediate or same day for homework help or project completion. Online tutoring is also available with a shared online whiteboard for step-by-step problem solving. We strive to get to the root of the problem be it a test-taking challenge or a problem with foundational concepts. Not very fond of your teacher? Unfortunately, this is often the case. We follow your own pace of learning to achieve results. We love the moment when a student finally understands a topic and starts building self-confidence. We can then use this to change the way a student thinks about a subject resulting in continual improvement and achievement.

UCLA: Math/Science/Computers/Executive Functions

I'm a graduate of UCLA Engineering with a passion for explaining how the physical world works through math and physics along with 14 years of tutoring experience in those subjects, test prep, and mentorship programs. The teaching strategy I believe in emphasizes subject fundamentals, a powerful and necessary tool for higher problem solving. This strategy has proven very effective regardless of the student's educational background or mental ability. Besides being knowledgeable, I am motivating, caring, and patient in guiding your student to academic success! EXECUTIVE FUNCTIONING: Executive Functioning is a separate realm that tutoring can assist in. It deals with cognitive processes including organization, time management, and study skills. Much of the difficulty students face in academic subjects can be attributed to the lack of executive functioning. They either cannot keep up w ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy tutoring, both with children and adults. I enjoy being able to take something that people deem as difficult and explain it in a way that they can understand it and apply it like they never did before. I am very patient and friendly and can relate to my students. I am also good at having them relate to the subject, thereby showing them the importance of what they are learning as it pertains to them. I enjoy watching their faces light up as they not only start to understand the material, but gain confidence that they can do more. All of my students have commented that they wish their teachers could have explained concepts the way I have and that they enjoyed my sessions.
Graduating from engineering at Penn State exposed me to a lot of math. It also exposed me to many tutoring opportunities. I tutored many of my fellow students. I was also tutored in other subjects, thus I als ... read more

I enjoy working with older children especially those in high school. I strongly believe that all students can suceed in the classroom as long as they have a good understanding of the materials being taught. And I make it my mission to make sure my students gain this understanding and will use any measure or teaching tool to ensure this. I am extremely patient and understanding with students and my ultimate goal is to see them suceed.
As a recent college graduate, I have a dedicated work ethic and a high performance level in the classroom which will translate onto the students I work with. I have earned a Bachlor of Arts in Biology from the George Washington University and plan to attend The George Washington University School of Medicine in the future.

I am very patient with students. I am not quick to tell them how to do a problem or what the answer is because the student will never learn how to do it on their own. I allow the student to work through the problem, offering my assistance along the way.
I started tutoring high school students; helping them with anything from test prep to organizational and study skills. I then started tutoring younger children helping them complete their homework, understand their material, and how to study for tests. I have over seven years experience tutoring students and getting results. I love children and helping them succeed in school is my passion.

More About This Tutor...

I truly enjoy teaching and getting to know my students. I believe young adults are each unique learners and acquire and retain knowledge in their own way. It truly makes me happy when a student finally ‘gets it’ and understands a new skill, fact, or concept. Personality wise, I am very patient, laid back, and reliable. I was frequently praised by parents during my student teaching for my engaging lessons and friendly demeanor. I believe all students can reach their true potential if provided with the right learning tools and strategies to help them succeed. I also like to focus on the positives and what a student is naturally more talented at to help them in areas in which they might struggle. I look forward to helping more young students reach their academic goals and to better their educational experience.
I have always possessed a strong desire to follow a career in educat ... read more

My passion is my teaching. I have used my BS in Chemistry to work in the technical, sales and EH & S fields in industry. I have spent the last fifteen years training engineers and technicians in the industrial world. After my children graduated from college in the summer of 2008, I went back to school and earned my teaching credential in Secondary Education-Science. My enthusiasm for teaching applied science and mathematics to young students has given me high marks in my Graduate program. While going to school at night, I have been substitute teaching during the days. I have been a registered tutor out of the Ventura Unified School District for Algebra, Geometry, Chemistry and Physics.
I love to share my "hands-on" experiences of the physical world with the students I teach. No matter their age, students can be captivated by the physical world around them. Science doesn' ... read more

As a University of South Florida college of education graduate I have a wealth of experience with teaching both in the classroom and on a one to one basis. I have successfully tutored students in english, reading comprehension, science and social sciences. During my internship I taught all manner of history classes including AP world history and Psychology. In addition I have tutored for 5 years at all age and skill levels.
My teaching style is to show students how to make themselves successful. By motivating my students to do their best every time I can help them exceed expectations and thrive under any situation both academically and socially. Many students focus on what they think they cannot do. What I teach them is to highlight their strengths and improve their weaknesses. I do so with the use of clear directions, constant monitoring, and positive praise. I believe every child ... read more
