I have enjoyed tutoring since high school. During college, I tutored college level math and chemistry. After college I worked for a large test prep company teaching SAT prep courses in various high schools. My education background is in biology (BA Molecular & Cell Biology, UC Berkeley) so I especially love tutoring science and math. My expertise is in standardized test prep (mainly SAT and GRE for graduate schools). My experience is not only tutoring and teaching, but also developing test prep material for both SAT and GREs Most tutors merely act as a solutions manual for off the shelf test prep books. I believe in providing my students a fully comprehensive curricula that covers both strategy and subject matter. Every student learns differently and at their own pace. I strongly believe in diagnosing and targeting student's weak areas.

I have worked with different types of students over the years. At San Francisco State University, my lectures were geared toward incoming freshman and International students. It was my work with international students in a tutorial setting that allowed for the growth of my skills as an ESL instructor. From this experience, I have incorporated patience and the ability to break concepts down for those with language barriers. After working with an ADD student at SCORE, I learned the importance of concentration and focus when teaching key items. Overall, I incorporate a level of engagement, patience, understanding, and excitement into my style of teaching. I am passionate about education. For this reason, I obtained both my bachelor’s and master’s degrees in Political Science. Until recently, I was pursuing my teaching credential at the University of San Francisco. Through this program, I wa

First of all I love to teach and work together with parents and students. If you have questions, I have answers. I am not just having those answers for students, I will find out why students have those questions. I have earned BS in chemistry and MS in computer science. I am able to tutor students in math, chemistry, and computer programming. My only goal is to make sure students understand the subjects well and satisfy my work.

My teaching/tutoring style is helping the student understand the problem and assisting them towards the answer without trying to give them the answer. I also adapt to try to find more than one way to approach and/or solve the problem the student is having difficulty on. I want them to understand more the concept behind the question rather than getting a participle question right. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I am currently a grad student at CSU-Fresno studying for a master’s degree in biotechnology. My undergraduate was in biomedical science with math and chemistry minors. I have over one year’s experience tutoring at a professional tutoring center. I am also a TA (teaching assistant) at CSF-Fresno, where I assist in the labs for an introduction to biology class.

I believe every child is capable of matching and exceeding our highest expectations. Every child learns differently and that is my approach. I don't believe in cookie cutter education. I design programs around students interests, needs, and abilities. I believe that positive feedback and reinforcement get better results than negativity, and it is my job to help your child be successful. It is my job to help your child buy into their own education and realize how great it is to be a lifelong learner. I have been working with students since I was in Middle School myself. I went to college to become a special education teacher and am currently working as a resource specialist. I work with students who have learning disabilities, are at risk, have emotional disturbances, autism, or just need a helping hand. I have also taught in general education classrooms.

It is essential to build repoire with every student. Every child learns various strategies to help them learn the subject. Fortunately, it is my duty to assist the student to build their knowledge by incorporating exciting hands on, visual, and auditory learning strategies that create long lasting learning in which helps them to use their knowledge out-side the classroom. Every student needs the challenge to foster their social and cognitive skills. Therefore, group and individual learning produces meaningful knowledge that lasts for a life time. Every child deserves motivation in learning. Thus, as an educator, it is my goal to provide enthusiasticl teaching techniques that build conceptual knowledge for every child. As a passionate educator, I was motivated to learn various teaching strategies that enhanced my desire to teach every student in need of an excellent education. To

My approach in teaching is unique. I have an autistic sibling and a son with an individualized education program, so my understanding of approaching children is on an individual basis. With my personal and professional experience, I have learned to be patient, understanding, friendly, and have a helpful attitude. My goal is to have every child try to surpass their zone of proximal development with my assistance. I have a pretty good sense as to how children approach learning; visually, hands-on, hearing, etc...I appreciate every child's potential because they are our future. Thus, I strive to help them find their confidence in education. As a recent graduate from UC Berkeley, I have always held the upmost interest and passion in helping students achieve the best they could. I received my degree in American studies, this degree is designed to allow students to create their own educationa

I am a very down to earth person especially when it comes to kids. I always try to lighten up the mood and make learning things interesting and fun. I don't like to dismiss when I see a child having trouble in something. Every person has a different way of learning, I try to cater to each of their needs. I have tutored children in reading last summer. It was one of the most gratifying things I have done. I worked with English as second language children ranging from ages 5 to 13. We used a lesson plan and several activities to help children in achieving their reading level goals. Also, in my undergrad experience, I excelled in writing and was very good with meeting deadlines.

I think each student is differnt and so is their learning style. As a teacher I want my student to find their confidence in math which mostly comes when they understand the subject completely. I not only have lot of experience under my belt but since I compelted part of studies in a different school system, I am able to explain one problem in several different ways. They say "you can lead a horse to water but you can't make them drink it". As a teacher it is my job to make them thirsty for math so they won't be able to resist that water of knowledge. I stated tutoring privately and through the college when I was a student myself to see if teaching was something I wanted to do as a career. I tutored all my college years and realized that this is exactly what I want to wake up for every day. I earned my BS and single subject in Mathematics from Fresno State University.

My experience in the teaching field has been primarily as a substitute on a daily basis. I have some long-term sub assignments in my resume as well. For the past 7 years I have limited my assignments to "Home/Hospital". I meet 5 hours per week with each student to provide complete instruction in all subject areas for the student(s) unable to be in the regular classroom setting due to illness. It is very much a tutoring situation as 5 hours per week is not nearly enough to provide the detailed instruction available on a daily basis. It seems to me that everyone can learn, in different ways and at different times. My approach is to have several options of which approach will be successful. Being a 1:1 teacher allows me the freedom and time to work with a student on a concept in a number of ways until the cognition sets in for him. Being enthusiastic and excited about the learning expe
