EXPERIENCED IN ACT PREP AND ALTERNATIVE LEARNING STUDENTS...

I am a licensed Social worker with tutoring experience in and out of college. I have the most experience in tutoring Algebra and other math. I have a student now that I am helping with AP English who has dyslexia. I enjoy watching her grammar skills increase and her overall understanding of the concepts develop. I am great with any age individual and have the patience it takes to work with any kind of student (special needs included).
I believe that people learn the best when they understand the meaning and logic behind what they are learning. When a student can see a pattern develop they develop an understanding that can be universally applied to many different areas of study and life circumstances. Learning is different then memorizing. It is especially important to understand the concepts behind the subject matter when planning continue in a similar learning subject.

My comments on tutoring SAT - Verbal : Perfect score on the verbal section of the SAT. Able to help others boost their vocabulary and reading comprehension skills for success on the test.

I have over five years of experience in teaching and one-on-one tutoring with students ranging from elementary-school children to undergraduates. I worked as a peer tutor at the Colorado College Writing Center throughout my undergraduate education, helping students with all stages of the writing process. I went on to serve as an AmeriCorps VISTA at an educational nonprofit, where I helped young children to improve their literacy skills. There, I also taught after-school classes in science, homework help, and gardening at two local elementary schools. During my master's degree, I worked as a poetry tutor in multiple middle schools in Scotland.
I have a flexible teaching style that aims to address the individual learning styles of my students. I believe in helping students reach the point where they can use the skills that I am teaching them on their own rather than relying on my ser ... read more

I'll help you a score well on the MCAT

I received a 34 on the MCAT, 12 verbal, 11 physical, and 11 biological. I received my degree from St. John's College in Santa Fe and my med school hard science prerequisites from UNM with a 3.8 GPA. I can help you with chemistry, organic chemistry, basic physics, anatomy and physiology, basic biology, critical reading, test taking, and study strategies. Contact me at ting.says(at)gmail.com with subject line "tutoring" to discuss what subjects or tests you'd like to be tutored on.
I prefer my students to take a free assessment, like a practice MCAT, then send me the results so that I can gauge where you are and what you need to work on. From there we'll work on test taking strategies, study strategies, and whatever specific knowledge gaps you have.

A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching is one of my great passions. I thoroughly enjoy overcoming the initial hurdles as the children are hesitant to receive me as a teacher, and to see them open up to me. It's also thrilling to see them blossom as they absorb new information and incorporate it. I'm certainly an advocate of fostering intelligence at a young age. When children begin to learn, they begin to build self-esteem, which they will carry with them indefinitely. In life, nobody can rob one of his or her education.
Thanks to my education in psychology at Brown University, I have gleaned much wisdom about the workings of human behavior as well as the human psyche. I have been able to observe applications of what I've learned throughout my daily life. This is especially helpful in teaching; I can recognize the various personalities and the accompanying learning styles in the students, which enable me ... read more

I taught English as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Korea, then received a Master's Degree in teaching and worked in Mexico, Japan, Iran, and the United States, teaching and also coordinating a bilingual program for refugees with the Tacoma Public Schools. I then became a Foreign Service Officer with the Department of State, serving on five continents and three islands. I speak Japanese, Korean, French, Spanish, and Dutch, and have extensive experience in writing and editing a variety of reports and related documents.
I work to identify each student's strengths and to build upon these, while also noting areas for improvement and tailoring lessons and assignments designed to address these areas. Because people learn in several different ways, I strive to individualize instructional approaches based on my perception of what works best for each student. I am unfailingly patient and poli ... read more

I have tutored most of the Math and Science courses at Glendale Community College for four years, tutored troubled teens at the YWCA during the same time period, taught Algebra at Gerard Catholic High School for one year, and tutored around the valley for several additional years. My motivation is to be the best at what I do and to teach students self discipline, good study habits, and to impart difficult subjects with clarity using everyday examples and creativity. Throughout my educational experiences I have sought true understanding rather than simply a grade with a stamp of acceptance. I've also worked as a Materials Analysis Engineer, Semiconductor Failure Analysis Engineer, and Metrology Engineer. I can teach most math, electronics, and science courses at the high school and college levels.
I love teaching students and to explore subjects with honesty, creativi ... read more

Students need to be equipped with the research skills and ability to fetter out information from a number of different sources. The information must be timely, accurate, credible, relevant, etc. The days of going to a library and pulling volumes of texts to research substantive information has changed. Now, most students understand what a Boolean search is. However, many don’t know much beyond the internet. This is both an imperative skill as a successful student, and as a potential graduate seeking employment.
During the years I have been an instructor and tutor, I have contributed to my students’ confidence and motivation through my interactive and engaging lessons on becoming a successful student. I conduct my lessons with high energy, engaging students to participate and contribute to the discussion. I balance excellent student interaction with effective classroom management. ... read more

As a recent graduate from the University of New Mexico. I have earned two bachelor degrees, BS in Spanish and BS in Sociology, this two combined have allowed me to understand social sciences to a new level. As you can expect my grammatical skills have flourished due to the combination of my two degrees. I feel competent in the subjects of English, reading, and the social sciences. Through out the last five years, I have been a tutor at my University (CAPS), as well as some volunteer work for students in my High School.
Through out my experience tutoring a diverse group of kids, I have learned to love and appreciate the art of teaching. It’s important to understand the many differences and backgrounds in every child, only then, we can begin to understand their special needs. I do believe everyone can learn given the opportunity, and resources needed to flourish to their maximum pote ... read more

Thanks to a fortunate background, I have always been pushed and motivated towards educational excellence. As a result of this, I have always searched for ways to give back to the community to which I belong. The words, "To whom much is given, much is expected" continually ring in my ears. I have received a BS in Biology and as a result I have a strong background in Chemistry, Calculus and Statistics. I have also pursued a minor in Spanish and as a result I have both studied abroad and achieved fluency in the language. During two years of college I was a Teacher's Assistant, providing me with a strong one-on-one teaching background. As a T.A., I also gained experience teaching classes. In addition to a strong education and background in teaching, I have also conducted research in my field which adds both practicality and application to the education I have received.

Prior to entering graduate and later medical school, I tutored a variety of subjects in the area of mathematics and science. As a PhD candidate, one of the requirements was to assist in teaching the physiology labs, and as an advanced candidate, was given the opportunity to give lectures in physiology to medical and nursing students. Most recently I have been an unpaid volunteer on the on-line physics forum where advanced high school and college students can go on line for assistance with their homework. Because of my career selection, I have had to take many standardized examinations and am quite adept at these. I believe I can help other aspiring students achieve the higher scores needed for acceptance in programs of their choice.
I am convinced, partly because of my own experiences, that the current educational system best serves the needs of the average student. I also believe ... read more

While working as a assistant professor at a number of institutions (including the University of Chicago, University of Texas ,San Antonio and several others) I found I almost always had to teach my students how to take notes, how to read to locate crucial information and how best to structure written assignments. I have also had a lengthy career as a print journalist and have developed my communication skills to a fairly high level. I have tutored a few children of middle-school age but have mostly worked with college and graduate students.
I have found I am most successful by not being overly aggressive. I never confront my students with fast-paced drills or time limits. I like to work with students in a cooperative way, one that allows them to discover the best means of figuring out solutions by themselves. My intention is to build confidence and develop problem-solving abi ... read more
