A Little Bit About Me...

My personal tutoring philosophy being that a student should have a deep and thorough understanding of the material - not merely just know how to get the correct answer. That way, they can become self-reliant and use their knowledge to solve new and challenging problems on their own.
From elementary school to high school and beyond, my passion is to help students at all grade levels excel academically. For over twenty years now, I have been a creative and effective tutor with Master's Degree in Physics from USC and years of experience working with students of all ages. Together with the help of the students and their parents, I work to develop academic goals and milestones for each student, implement lesson plans at varying academic levels, provide constructive feedback, and foster confidence in the academic abilities of each student. My teaching methods are highly successful with m ... read more

Everyone is a genius when given the right tools

I have been working with students as a private tutor for over seven years, and have become addicted! There are a million ways to explain a problem and a million different points of views to understand it. I have an enormous amount of patience when explaining solutions and comprehending a student’s true understanding. Hands-on learning is my philosophy as I believe that studying should be done through creation. I look forward to sharing my knowledge with those who are in need of my assistance!

Biology is one of my top subjects!

Learning biology comes naturally for me and it has stuck with me because of the numerous times I have repeated the same material over and over again when I have taught fellow classmates and other students. Teaching is a natural gift I have and I enjoy passing along my knowledge to those committed to learn.
I tend to teach directly, straight to the point, but also make it fun. I like to ask the student questions to make sure they understand. I also teach in a philosophical way. I try teaching the student in a way to think logically about the material to make better decisions when it comes to test time.

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

More About This Tutor...

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 also became aware of how to tutor from both sides. After obtaining a job, I volunteered for the math tutoring program at my company. By the next year I ran the program. I have successfully tutored children and adults to their goals in math (and also science, history, and other subjects).
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 perta ... read more

UCLA English grad; experience teaching both English and Math

Mine is a creative and lively, interactive teaching style, focusing on playing off of children's interests and strengths. I make it a point to get to know the students I work with -- background, education, hobbies and lifestyle.
I majored in English Literature and Writing at UCLA, with a focus on British Pre-Reformation Classics, as well as Shakespeare's 1st and 2nd portfolios. I also won 1st Place in the university's Westwind Writing Competition, taking home top prize for Non-Fiction entry. I have experience working on the school newspaper, The Daily Bruin, and extensive journalism experience. Finally, I co-founded The Writers' Den, a school-based organization dedicated to teaching English and Writing to inner-city students (Compton, Inglewood especially).

My comments on tutoring Biology : My undergraduate minor is biology. I have had multiple experiences doing things like wildlife research and ecological restoration in the past. I am a bit rusty on the molecular level, but I would just need to jog my memory to help.

I like to bring the material "down to earth" by using examples and making comparisons between the material being taught and what the student is familiar with in the own immediate world. When teaching geography and earth science I use many examples of places with the students home region. Southern California is great for that!
I have five years teaching geography at the community college level. I mostly taught physical geography (more like earth science), but also taught some human geography as well. I have had multiple short term experiences in the field that I believe make my teaching of geography, biology, and earth science more real and not abstract. As a teacher I always used technology and field trips whenever possible.

Biology is one of my top subjects!

GUIDE ON THE SIDE WHO ADDRESSES ALL INTELLIGENCES AND LEARNING STYLES.
MORE THAN 15 YEARS TEACHING IN PUBLIC, PRIVATE SCHOOLS, AND ONE-ON-ONE AND SMALL GROUP TUTORING EXPERIENCE. No matter what the subject is, teaching is an art, and like every art, teaching requires a great understanding of the subject and outstanding communication skills( intrinsic and extrinsic). I like to break down whatever skill I'm teaching in the simplest form at first. This means explaining the concept of the skill in a way that the student can understand what it is we are trying to do. I also try to use a pictorial representation of the skill if that is needed. After that I'll show them how I work a concept with that particular skill in order to allow them to see firsthand what the thought process is and the steps that are needed to use that particular skill. In addition, I love teaching in an environm ... read more
