Nick S. - Rocklin, CA 95765 (36.1 mi) - Chemistry Tutor - $35.00/hr.
This really depends on the subject, however, I like to do drills to keep basic skills sharp, and to learn new skills. Each student is different, and will need slightly adjusted methodology. I'm also very open to suggestion. I am a few years out of high school, and I've taken several college classes. My AP knowledge spans almost every subject. I can help with almost all high school level classes and below. The various sciences are probably my best subjects, however my knowledge of Biology is fairly limited. I have tutored a few High School Freshman before in a program called "Senior Mentoring" I have also helped out a few family friends to get the grade to graduate.

Alani W. - Folsom, CA 95630 (39.8 mi) - Chemistry Tutor - $45.00/hr.
I am a 16 year old high school student taking my third year of Spanish, Psychology/Sociology, English, U.S History, Chemistry, and Math Reasoning. School wasn't one of my favorite places to go especially when I wasn't doing so hot in some of my classes. But then I found fun and easy ways to study. It turned out that I actually enjoyed going to school afterwards and making it a goal to get good grades. That is my goal with potential students. I want them to enjoy studying for school. Yes it may be a lot of work but the student can make it easier by using flashcards or writing down the problem until it sticks into their, whatever helps them. I want to help them to see how easy school can actually be for them. At first studying may be frustrating but the more the student and I practice, the more fun and less stressful the subject will become.

Krish S. - Sacramento, CA 95821 (48 mi) - Chemistry Tutor - $42.50/hr.
Hello! To provide some background information on myself: I am a current student at California Polytechnic SLO, double majoring in both computer science and physics. I graduated from Mira Loma High School’s International Baccalaureate (IB) Program, following the most rigorous curriculum offered at the school, including, but not limited to, courses such as IB Math Further Level.
I have had a great deal of experience tutoring students throughout my four years at high schools and this passion has continued on into my university years. I have tutoring students at the university level in both math and the sciences (I specialize primarily in physics and chemistry).
I have experience teaching any level of middle school or high school mathematics ranging from Algebra 1 and 2, Geometry, Pre-Calculus, Calculus AB/BC, and SAT/ACT Math prep.

Harry U. - Sacramento, CA 95825 (50.5 mi) - Chemistry Tutor - $17.50/hr.
I provide a relaxed atmosphere for students with encouragement and positive reinforcement. I make index cards for students that contain important formulas and concepts. I provide examples of problems while I describe problem solving strategies and I provide feedback to students while they work. Starting in October of 2008, I was an Instructional Assistant at Sacramento City College for three semesters. I help students with math, statistics, and science. I also gave workshops in study skills, learning styles, test preparation, test taking, and stress management. At the same time I began tutoring on a private basis. At this point I have more than three years of tutoring experience and I have worked with students of all ages from 10 years old through 55+ years old. I also have prepared students to take AP exams in the areas of calculus and statistics. One of my students was a 12-year old wh

Peter H - Penn Valley, CA 95946 (23.5 mi) - Chemistry Tutor - $43.50/hr.
Knowledge and skills are most permanent when we discover and create for ourselves, so I like to be a guide that leads the student to their own conclusions, rather than take over and lecture. I will be there to direct and support the student; I like when the student works at the board or on the paper instead of me, so that they retain what is being taught.
I am very patient, and will work with the student on a subject until it is truly understood, and for more algorithmic tasks, until the student can quickly produce the correct answer. Tutoring my fellow classmates was an integral part of my college experience. At Yuba College, I tutored math and chemistry in the College Success Center for two school years. I was in demand, as even fellow tutors would seek my help. I was also requested by my physics professor to tutor physics in the Hard Math Cafe on campus.

Amanda S - Auburn, CA 95602 (23.8 mi) - Chemistry Tutor - $49.00/hr.
As an educator, it is my job to recognize each child’s individual learning-style and adapt my teaching-style accordingly. I will build upon each child’s abilities and strengths, and work to improve upon his/her limitations. By reinforcing the student’s positive habits and capabilities, I hope, not only, to assist with the subject at hand, but to encourage each child’s desire to meet his/her full potential in every setting, academic or otherwise. Combining my comprehension of behavioral psychology and my vast experience with children, I believe that I am well-qualified to assist any child in attaining his or her educational goals. Further, I believe that learning can (and should) be fun, and hope to instill that in each of my students. For the past 10 years, I have worked in my community, helping to better the lives of children. At age 15, I began mentoring young girls and volunteering fo

Al H - Auburn, CA 95603 (25.1 mi) - Chemistry Tutor - $45.50/hr.
I started tutoring classmates in seventh grade and tutored friends in college in Trigonometry. I have earned two BS degrees in Landscape Architecture and Computer Science with a minor in Math. this diverse education allows me to tutor in Math and Science as well as design and art. I have tutored part-time since 2004, mostly in high school Math, but have also assisted in Chemistry, CBEST, SAT, and GRE prep. I have also developed coursework and taught at UCSC in the classroom setting, and trained employees. My first visit is just an assessment of where the student began to get lost regardless of the age or level. More often that not, they have to memorize their fractions to decimal to percentage conversion from 1/2 to 1/12. Given this underlying knowledge allows me to focus on the subject at hand. I usually recommend purchasing a Spark Notes or something similar for the subject as a refere

Emily E - Truckee, CA 96105 (25.3 mi) - Chemistry Tutor - $48.50/hr.
I am a chemical engineer and I currently work for a biofuels plant. I consider myself as having a good way of presenting the science behind biodiesel to the other employees who do not have a scientific background. As such, I often have to create spreadsheets and conduct training sessions to explain the mathematics behind the process in layman’s terms.
I have tutored students in chemistry, algebra, Latin and geometry. I tutored for underprivileged children in NYC for a few months in mathematics, and in college I tutored chemistry in my sorority and for other students upon request. I tutored a student from the Bronx area whose grades in algebra improved. One year ago I tutored Latin for a student for a couple of months. I like to break every concept and principle down into its most basic components. An artist breaks down a drawing into its basic shapes, and is able to create what

Michael C - Truckee, CA 96161 (27.5 mi) - Chemistry Tutor - $43.50/hr.
I begin a lesson by asking a student what he or she knows about the topic. If they have any familiarity with the topic I ask about it and confirm or correct their preconceptions. If the subject lends itself to a real-world example or demonstration, I would offer this for thought. Finally I teach the core concept, connecting it to other concepts already understood by the student.
There is usually more than one way to teach a concept. I take into account the learning style of the student. Written or diagrammatic methods might be more effective than verbal explanations. Pnemonics can be useful, but only if the underlying concepts are first taught. Upon matriculation at Colby, I enrolled in organic chemistry and decided to major in chemistry. I continued my studies in chemistry and additional areas of interest, including math, government, and economics. Before graduating I participated in

Katherine R - Pilot Hill, CA 95664 (27.5 mi) - Chemistry Tutor - $44.00/hr.
As a Summa Cum Laude graduate, I have always valued academics and education. I began to share my drive for excellence through tutoring in high school. I tutored elementary school students in all subjects and college students in Statistics. During college, I tutored in Spanish, as my area of expertise. I have extensive knowledge of the Spanish language and dialects throughout Latin America and Spain through my studies, volunteer work, and travels in Latin America and Europe. I have experience working with students of all ages and I thoroughly enjoy the challenge each person brings. I treat each student according to his/her needs and I look for the most effective ways he/she learns. I ask the student questions that lead to his/her discovery of the process, steps and answer to the problem. With this method the student has the satisfaction of resolving the problem, encourages him/her to cont

Matt S - Incline Village, NV 89450 (36.9 mi) - Chemistry Tutor - $38.50/hr.
Born and raised in upstate New York, I graduated from Cornell University in the spring of 2000 with a B.S. in Biology. In 2003, after a short stay in the biotechnology world, I moved west to work for an outdoor science school in Southern California. Since then, I have had the pleasure of traveling all over the country and working with a variety of successful environmental education programs, summer camps, and adventure programs. Having worked with students of all ages in a variety of settings, I specialize in teaching science and math concepts as well as test prep and study skills. My mission as a tutor is to help students understand subject content while learning how to learn.
My favorite part of being a teacher is watching confusion and doubt become knowledge and confidence. I believe that this transition of ignorance to understanding is the hallmark of education and my goal is

I have worked with kids for nearly 10 years as an instructional soccer coach. I have also worked as a substitute teacher for the past three years at the K-12 level. Currently, I am enrolled in the Teachers' Credentialing Program at CSUS and taught 8th-grade Science last semester at Sylvan Middle School in Citrus Heights. I will be teaching freshman Science next semester at Casa Roble Fundamental High School in Orangevale. I am scheduled to complete the credentialing program in December of 2011, at which time I intend to teach full-time. In a classroom setting, I adapt my teaching style so that all students can learn. I get to know my students well so that I will be able to recognize when they may be experiencing personal issues that might affect their learning. It is also important that I show my students that I care about them and their success. Students need to realize that it is ok to
