Specializing in SAT Preparation

I am starting my own SAT prep company this fall (see achieveexcellencehawaii.com). I am currently the SAT prep teacher (and upper school science teacher) at American Renaissance Academy in Kapolei. I have been tutoring various subjects for over 10 years, have about 6 years of teaching experience (with a focus on math, science, and ESL), and have taught numerous SAT prep classes and tutored a handful of students in SAT prep for other companies. I have been blessed to help many students raise their total SAT scores 300-600 points. I have a Master's Degree in Divinity from Azusa Pacific University (CA) and Bachelor of Arts Degree in Biology from the University of Hawaii at Manoa.
I truly enjoy teaching and working with people; I am very personable, positive, and encouraging. I will also make the subject interesting and fun.

I have six years of experiences teaching college level biology courses in University of Hawaii at Manoa as teaching assistant. The courses I have taught include introductory biology, general botany, ecology, and cell and molecular biology labs. These including writing-intensive courses. The years of experiences gave me good understanding of students' needs, often encountered difficulties and how to guide them in a positive, active learning environment. I have more than three years of tutoring experience when I was in the college and early graduate education. This enable me to work with individual students with different level and their needs.
For me it is a privilege to be a teacher. I enjoy teaching and treasure the moments that I can interact with my students because I know I am making a difference in another person's life. I believe that trust and good relationship is the founda ... read more

I hold a B.S. degree in Molecular Biology with a minor in Biochemistry, and an M.S. in Human Cytogenetics with my thesis project conducted in the area of apoptotic signal transduction. My twelve years of experience encompasses both clinical science and research science settings managing lab projects, maintaining records, analyzing and presenting data, developing and troubleshooting assays, and writing protocols/procedures. In addition, I have taught science techniques to undergraduate, graduate, and medical students who rotate though the lab. I also have one year of traditional classroom teaching experience at the college level.
I love science and because I am excited about science, students I have taught previously have enjoyed the subject as well. And if I can assist them in understanding the material, they will be empowered to become problem solvers. I have an easy going perso ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Over the past six years, I have been a collegiate instructor, a private tutor, and a tutor for elementary, middle school, and high school students in science, math, reading comprehension, writing, and history. All of my students’ grades improved significantly within a month of tutoring (3x a week), and teachers often noted increased understanding and enthusiasm in the classroom. I have a true passion for teaching science and math, as well as a rigorous educational background and specialized research experience. I earned a B.S. in Biology, Marine Science, Chemistry, and Journalism, a M.S. in Biological Sciences, and PhD candidacy in Biological Oceanography.
Do your science or math classes have you frustrated? These subjects can be complex, but I have over six years of experience turning them into manageable, even fun, topics. I use analogies, case studies, current events, an ... read more

I enjoy teaching and strive to make my teaching sessions enjoyable for both tutor and tutees. I love to get the reward of the wide-eyed look that illuminates the face of somebody who has understood a difficult subject; I achieve this reward by approaching the same subject from different points of view thhat may illustrate better the "stuff of life that make things tic"(Biology and Chemistry.)
I was born in Costa Rica and I have lived half of my 46 years of age in Hawaii. I am a Marine Biologist with more than 23 years of experience teaching diverse subjects (including Biology, Chemistry, and Spanish) to students, volunteers, tutees, and the general public at the College, and High School levels.

I have been a teaching assistant for six semesters at University of Hawaii at Manoa where I earned my Ph.D. in Molecular Biosciences and Bioengineering, and have taught a variety of writing intensive biology and microbiology labs. I’ve also had extensive tutoring experience since I was an undergraduate in biochemistry and have learned how to communicate effectively with students that are having a tough time with math. I specialize in math and science, but am also able to help with reading comprehension and all types of writing. I was the assistant editorials editor for the University of Hawaii Manoa newspaper, Ka Leo, and have worked with many writers to improve clarity and grammar.

A Little Bit About Me...

When I was a freshman in college, I knew that my future was in my hands. I befriended and contacted my chemistry professor and zoology advisor. I worked in both of their labs, and I was only a freshman! By studying in their research groups, I gained the experience necessary to intern at Sea Life Park Hawaii. In fact, I was published in 2007 after working for Dr. Charlie Cox in the Chemistry Department. Recognizing the need for more hands-on research experience, I found another opportunity with another professor in cellular biology. In addition to conducting this research, I co-wrote the research proposal for the Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program. This was an honor, for we were awarded funding for the project!
Teaching requires a patient, easygoing individual since not all students learn at similar speeds. There is not one single way to teach, so it is important to encomp ... read more
