I have taken up to Calculus BC and I tutored at my high school. I tutored up to geometry in high school but I am comfortable tutoring up to pre calculus. I am very comfortable working with people of all ages. I am also comfortable working with elementary students in any subject. I have not tutored elementary school students but I have helped out in classrooms.

I'll Teach your Student to Teach Him or Herself

I have worked as a tutor for 10 years in all subjects, especially focusing on ESL learners. Recently, I have worked in an ESL school (FLS International) with university age students seeking to matriculate into American Universities. Before that, I worked in South Korea teaching English. While employed at these schools, I also work part-time as a tutor- mostly for middle and high school age students. Many of my students struggle with time management, and this is a main focus in my tutoring sessions.
I hate lecturing! I do! This is why my tutoring style is very interactive. I don't like talking AT a person, I prefer to have a conversation. My goal as a tutor is to make subjects interesting, and also to make sure they stick- so you can do well on exams. I also teach study skills in every session, so ideally you won't have to rely on me forever. I try to give students tools th ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am currently working as the Math Specialist at a K-8th school where I provide assistance to students who need extra help or are performing below grade level. I also work with students in 8th grade teaching Algebra to those who have the ability to learn at a faster pace than the class as a whole.
I first determine the student's level in each subject, and tutor accordingly. Since every person learns in a different way, I may try more than one approach until it is clear that the student is gaining an understanding of the subject matter. I am patient, positive, and encouraging. I find it very rewarding to help others. When I see the student learning and advancing, I share in their joy at overcoming a stumbling block, or accomplishing their goal.

More About This Tutor...

I feel that my largest teaching strength is the ability to identify where students are having problems and address those issues first. If students don't understand the fundamentals, it is impossible to teach them advanced concepts. In addition to this, being able to identify the students learning style and teach to them personally is something I am skilled at. I tend to connect with my students and am proud to be involved with their success.
In High School I discovered that not only was I skilled in math and science, but that I was effective in tutoring other students in these subjects. I started professionally tutoring students younger than me when I was a junior and continued until I graduated college. I successfully tutored students in Algebra, Geometry/Trig, Algebra 2, Pre-Calc, Chemistry, Physics, Biology, and SAT Prep. I have taught swimming and been a lifeguard through ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Through my education I have learned the importance of inspiring others to take an interest in science. My time at these universities has also enabled me to not only learn the material taught in them but also how to apply that knowledge to situations that were not included in lecture. My educational background includes biology, genetics, ecology, chemistry (basic-organic), environmental sciences and policy, and laboratory work associated with these subjects. Beyond schooling I have experience teaching swimming lessons to people of all ages (infant to adult). These included private and group lessons along with lessons geared towards children with physical or mental challenges.
My teaching style tends to be structured in the beginning as I get to know each students strengths and weaknesses and then adapts to each persons needs. I believe that everyone has their own learning style and ... read more

Throughout my undergraduate studies I have tutored both science and math profusely. My specialties are chemistry (college or intro chemistry), organic chemistry, intro to physics and biochemistry. Because I know biochemistry so well,I am able also able to do cell molecular biology, and fundamental biology. Other than science, I am very proficient at math, I can teach up to pre-calculus level. However, nothing is better than to mingle both math and sciences together to enhancing my comprehensive abilities. I have taken Calculus based Physics, which helped aided me to understand both calculus and chemical properties that provided a deep insight in my studies. And I am not timid to share my profound knowledge that will aid you!
In my opinion there’s never a dull moment when it comes to science and math. I am severely enthused when it comes to particular subjects that I love. And I am ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy working with students of all ages. As a teacher, there is nothing greater than to see my students succeed. I am more results-oriented and I encourage students to work persistently until they have accomplished their goals. I am friendly, patient, and easy going. Although I push my students to work hard, I also like to have fun and make the learning experience enjoyable as well.
I have a very diverse background and I have many years of experience teaching in different subjects. I was an English teacher for one year in Korea, teaching children at a public school. I have taught fine art at a private school in Salinas. I have also been teaching martial arts and self-defense for over 10 years. I have worked with children as young as 4, to adults in their senior years. I hold a bachelor's degree in Business Marketing from San Jose State and I graduated with honors.

More About This Tutor...

I have always had a natural curiosity for learning Mathematics and a desire to teach others. I remember being a student in Elementary School struggling to understand a particular concept and then imagining myself explaining this concept to others once I achieved understanding. Mathematics has always been challenging for me but noticed that as long as I was persistent I always acquired knowledge of the material. I was exposed to many different math instructors and many of them motivated me to learn mathematics and inspired me to want to teach. I am very patient when I explain concepts to others and enjoy coming up with different ways of explaining these concepts.
I tutored at the Hartnell College Math Lab in topics ranging from Pre-Algebra to Calculus. I also tutored/mentored recent high school graduates and motivated them to pursue careers in math and science. I tutored Algebra at ... read more

Teaching can be a most wonderful adventure. I believe every child can learn. At times students or overwhelming with new concepts, and they need to be encouraged, and praise until they can accomplish the task at hand. I enjoy seeing the appearence of awareness on a childs face, when they have accomplished a goal, or solved a problem they had difficulty solving. I believe tutoring a child can be a powerful tool, and it can also unleash a potential genius.
As a graduate, I've been very blessed to have received a degree in Business Communication. In college I learned how to become a better educator, and communicate with them on the highest level. Although, I tutor in all of the academic areas, I also enjoy helping my student appreciate the art of becoming a good writer, and thinkers. My students are also encouraged to read for relaxation, and entertainment. Making the education process ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a Corporate Finance professional whose true passion is math education. I have a Bachelor's degree in Mathematics and a Masters in Business Administration - Finance. In college, I worked as a Teacher's Assistant at my old high school and as a private math tutor for 1-2 years in subjects ranging from algebra to calculus. I also worked as a college math seminar instructor for 2 years, teaching college-level calculus. I helped many of my students advance in their math classes and actually made it interesting for them, so that they wanted to learn!
I truly enjoy teaching and working with all levels of math learners. I was blessed to have great math teachers in my education that transferred their passion for the subject on to me. Many students are very apprehensive when they enter math classes because the concepts seem so foreign. I feel the most important thing when it comes ... read more

Throughout high school and college, I belonged to several tutoring organizations. I took multiple extra classes on education and tutoring techniques at Cal Poly. My senior project researched the process in which adolescents first learn to think abstractly. Stanford's STEP program was an intense year which prepared me very well for classroom teaching. My colleagues continually asked for copies of my original lesson plans. Many students thanked me for helping them "finally get math." I have enjoyed the last 5 years of teaching. I would be teaching this year, but the timing of my recent marriage and move would have made a full time teaching position awkward. I hope to continue helping students become more confident in their math skills.
I love helping a student come to a mathematical conclusion on his/her own. My 7th graders discovered the distributive prop through an investig ... read more

After graduating with a degree in history as well as with completion of pre-medical requirements I started tutoring students grades k-12 as well as college students in math, science, english and reading. After college I completed 2 years of FAA flight training and began teaching ground and flight instruction for all levels of pilot training (including aerobatics), which has allowed me to hone my teaching skills working with so many different age groups, personalities and cultural backgrounds. As a flight instructor I teach aerodynamics and basic physics while using math on a regular basis.
I work well with children and adults alike. I enjoy the challenge of finding the perfect explanation for each individual that I works with their personal thought processes (as everyone thinks about things a little differently - that is the challenge of teaching). I believe that helping a person d ... read more
