ASVAB Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Waimanalo, HI

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. I believe that the best way to teach is by integrating the artistic with the rational and have even founded a non-profit organization that is dedicated to teaching sustainability and systems theory using a

I believe that each child learns most effectively in a different way, which much be found to further consider a teaching style. Basically I love working with interested questioning minds. I try to inspire students to be self learners -becoming first inquisitive, and then solvers of their own inquiries. Massive amounts of work are required and it is best if the student of science is interested and inquisitive if all the material is to be grasped. I have tutored privately various students at the college level for short terms in elementary physics(<200 level), chemistry(<400 level), mathematics(<500 level), and biology(<300 level). I have also tutored part time in English and SAT preperation for nearly a year (<12 hours a week) with certified tutoring services, a small company here in Honolulu. I have earned a B.S. in mathematics from a university with extensive coursework in the hard scie

When I meet with a new client I create a plan by finding out where they are having trouble with starting with the basics. I make sure each client is prepared with all the basic tools to succeed before moving on to a new section. It is important to have to basics mastered to avoid having problems in the future. I like to teach by example. I do this by creating a problem, showing the steps, and then changing the numbers or variables. This way the the student can remember the process rather than just the answer. I always give positive reinforcement for their hard work. I believe creating challenges and praising clients for their accomplishments helps them retain the material. As a graduate from the University of Hawaii with a BA in Economics I have a solid understanding of mathematical concepts from the courses I have taken while pursuing my degree. I speak both English and Japanese fluentl

I enjoy working with students who are willing to learn. My drive to be a tutor happens when that light bulb goes on and the student finally is getting it. The satisfaction and accomplishment the student feels is what keeps me going. My philosophy ensures that students understand and are able to replicate the work I am helping them with. Some tutors just make sure the work gets done and is correct. I make sure the student is able to reproduce the correct answer on their own for future homework and tests. I'm an easy going person who has a passion for making sure the students I tutor either catch up to their peers or surpass them. Since middle school, I've been tutoring younger students afterschool as a service to my community. With about 12 years of experience tutoring, I have found various ways to make learning easy and fun. My education background includes graduating with hon
