More About This Tutor...

For the last five years, I served as a biological speaker in a teenage association in the community center of my district in China. It was my responsibility to solve the problems that students brought and teach them to connect to the real world. Outside of school campus, I have not only been a group homework helper for some elementary school students, but also an in-person tutor of math, Chinese and visual art.

ThinkTankTutor Brentwood Private and Group Mathematics Tutor

I believe in Minimalism. I tutor Math from the point of view that the shortest path is the best path but everyone learns differently and finding the right method for my students is one of my main goals when tutoring. I teach students multiple ways to solve a particular problems and they get to decide which method works best for them, hopefully its the simplest method. Public School class rooms have 30 plus students and only one instructor. The low instructor to student ratio makes it difficult for more then one method to be taught leaving some students behind. When students feel they don't understand, they become self conscience of their perceived lack of knowledge making them less confident in mathematics which leads to procrastination on their homework . Besides finding the right method, another of my principle goals is helping my students grow in confidence. I want my students to enjo ... read more

Math and Java Tutor

Hi, my name is Abiodun ("Abi" for short) and I am a double major student in Mathematics and Computer Science at Modesto Junior College. I've been tutoring independently throughout my high school years, and now I work as a tutor for the Modesto Junior College Math Drop-in Center. The one and only reason I'm majoring in Mathematics is because of my love for the subject; as a tutor, I not only share the knowledge of the subject I love deeply, I teach my students shortcuts and highlight the over-arching concepts, rather than have them watch me solve problems and try to copy my every move. My methods not only give my students a better grade, it gives a deeper understanding of the subject. Furthermore, I am a student just like you; I understand your struggles, and will work with your schedule. My job is to create successful students, and I will do what is necessary to meet that objectiv ... read more

My comments on tutoring College Algebra : College Algebra was new and different for me, and a little of a challenge, but I learned how to tackle each problem one step at a time with the help of great instructors at Diablo Valley College.

My teaching style is multi-dimensional, and personally tailored to each specific student. Each student is unique and special. Everyone has a different learning style, which means each person has different need in terms of how they learn. I learn about each student, and take the time to figure out how they take in information. Also how they best understand their course material, and whether their learning style is Visual, Auditory, or Kinesthetic. Perhaps a person's learning style is a combination of these three things. When I teach, I use colors (pens/markers), diagrams, figures, counting figures(ex: colored counting bears), and a writing board to work out/solve math problems. When tutoring in Reading, Spelling, and Vocabulary I use the writing board, flash cards, and stories to help my students feel compforatble with their subjects. I listen to each one of my students, and a ... read more

I finished BS Civil Engineering at MIT, Philippines, which has provided me gain an excellent knowledge in many areas of mathematics and physical science. My over 10 years experience and trainings in teaching higher level math enable me to help and teach students in subjects like algebra, trigonometry, geometry, pre-calculus, and physics.
Children differ greatly to acquire knowledge depending on their learning styles and background. So it is very important to identify the student's skills and understanding and to create a conducive learning environment. I enjoy working with children and I want to provide the best I can to make a differnce in their lives. I find fulfillment to see them succeed.

I like to be as productive and creative with the time given for each student so that they may gain as much knowledge as they can to master subjects that they are struggling with. I believe each student is different and this calls for utilization of various teaching techniques to enhance their understanding.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love helping students. With my strong, positive feelings towards higher education, I believe every student should take pride in their studies and enjoy the material; and educational material can only be enjoyed if it is understood! I honestly believe that students need to put in the effort to learn themselves. If there isn't a basis of knowledge to go on (whether understood or not), the student would not benefit from tutoring. A tutor's job is not to TEACH the student, it is to help the student understand the material that has been taught and/or read. I refuse to "do the homework" for the student, because I have learned from experience (mostly personal) that this method does not help a student understand.
Education has always been an important element of my life. I earned a BS in Forensic Chemistry, with a dual major in Criminal Justice. I followed by attending graduate sc ... read more
