A HAPPY ENERGETIC MOTIVATED COLLEGE TUTOR FOR ALL STUDENTS!!

My teaching and tutoring experience is not perfect however, i have taught middle school math and chemistry when i was volunteering in the local library for "Homework Help" program. I can not say about my teaching style because i do not own one. Instead of having my strict teaching style, i tune my speaking and personal teaching style for the student. Every single student has different personality and ability to embrace so i happliy respect my students and do my best to help out them. I am a sophomore at UC Davis and majoring in Biomedical Engineering. I am very energetic highly motivated to teach and help students. I really want to share my energy and motivation with my future student so i will be really happy to br a tutor for them. Thank you for your consideration! :)

I am a graduate student transitioning from physics to astrophysics, my goal being a PhD in Astrophysics. My undergraduate degree is a BS in Physics with a minor in astronomy. Because of the nature of physics, I have been exposed to many types of science and mathematics. I am also experienced with professional writing as required for producing lab reports and research papers, some of which were followed by presentation talks. Most recently I have been working as a physics instructor for The Princeton Review.
My philosophy of teaching is to train the student to think like a scientist and/or mathematician. It is not just about getting the right answer but rather understanding the fundamental principals of a subject. This enables the student to try previously unseen problems and succeed. I also believe in varying the techniques used. If a student has trouble with their teacher or text ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I enjoy teaching children from third grade and up. I am very patient, and easy-going. My goal is get students to see real world applications for each subject I tutor. I teach in an auditory-visual way, to provide the basics necessary for students to reach their potential. I relate to children on their level, and help them to see new ways to look at their work. I always work to make a difference in all of my student's lives.
I became interested in teaching after graduating with my bachelor degree in Broadcast Comm. Arts. I worked in the music industry as a manager where I trained new employees to use the computer software at our company. I also taught a course in music business distribution at SFSU in 2002. I helped to organize our systems and create job descriptions for our company. During the last four years I have tutored students in English, math and science.

More About This Tutor...

I graduated from Duke University in 2009 with a triple-major in Biomedical Engineering, Economics, and Mathematics. I have tutored in Economics and spent four years mentoring middle-schools students in Engineering as a Techtronics Fellow.
I have never been someone who "just gets it" when it comes to math or science, and so I understand more than many people who pursued degrees in these subjects just how puzzling they can be. Math seems like it is filled with "tricks" that seem impossible to know unless you were born with some innate gift. When I teach, I seek to show, step-by-step. how to think about a problem as more than a set of symbols on paper. I seek to impart the critical thinking skills that reveal why those tricks aren't tricks at all, but are instead a natural part of the grammar of math and science.

A Little Bit About Me...

"I believe the children are our are future Teach them well and let them lead the way Show them all the beauty they possess inside Give them a sense of pride" (Whitney Houston) I believe every child has God given strengths, that, when nurtured by the right influences can let them reach their available potential. Each person learns differently, so I approach each situation with care and concern for the individuals' learning needs. I hope to not only better the academic skills of my pupils, but also be a role model and act as a stimulus toward lifelong learning.
During my years at UC Davis I achieved a high level of excellence inside and outside the classroom, majoring in Economics with a minor in Communication as well as earning All-America Honors in Intercollegiate Golf. I began at Davis majoring in Physics, which led me to take many advanced level math and science courses ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a Physics Ph.D. I have a strong background in Mathematics and Physics. Currently, I am a senior research scientist in a university lab. This experience has helped me understand how math and science are used in real world applications, which gives me ways to relate these subjects to students in a way that they can appreciate. In other words I can explain what importance that these subjects have in the real world. I have taught physics at the university level for a full year which gives me an insight into what professors expect from students at the college level. Also, I have been a tutor for nearly 10 years.
Few things give me as much pleasure as communicating academic concepts to students and seeing the look of understanding on their face. As a result, my teaching style emphasizes understanding of concepts and problem solving techniques. What this means that I don't just tell my ... read more

The number of years teaching and tutoring is a fuzzy area. I am a graduate student and I have been a teaching assistant for about 2 years, which consists of instructing laboratory, discussion hours and office hours. I have a BA in chemistry, which is certified by the American Chemical Society, so my study of chemistry covered all the major fields, including the laboratory, so I know applications of most of the theories that are taught. I have been a TA for both General Chemistry and Physical Chemistry.
The best word to describe my teaching is flexible. Students learn concepts in different ways. When each quarter begins and I hold my first discussion, I always start off saying that this time is the student's time. If my teaching style does not work with everyone let me know. If they want more example problems than lecture, I tell them to tell me to change it up. Also, if the ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated with a BS in Biotechnology and a BA in Chemistry. I am currently working on a MS in Chemistry with a concentration in Biochemistry. I have been an intern at University of Wisconsin-Madison focusing on locating a point mutation in Salmonella enterica. I was also employed at MPI Research to do more research. In addition, I am extensively trained to write and read scientific articles. I have experience teaching many areas including Biology, Chemistry, and Math.
I am very passionate about education. I used a variety of techniques such as reading to the student, extending what they know, providing visual aids, etc. I like to use a variety of tools to explain lessons because different methods can improve or help a student learn a subject much better.

More About This Tutor...

As a student, I am driven to understand the nature of things. As a teacher, I work to help others understand them. From my experience, I have learned to be patient with people who are afraid of failure and to push students who are easily bored with basic work. I have earned a bachelor's degree in computer science because computers are the tool with the most potential to enable us to understand the world, second only to the mind. To this end, I encourage my students to think long and hard about the problem they want to solve before they put too much work on a false lead. I find that the better students are aware of this and struggling students become more enthusiastic about learning after they discover this.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have noticed first-hand that teaching is not a one-way street where the teacher transfers knowledge to students strictly from the syllabus. I feel that teaching involves a constant quid pro quo between the teacher and the students – the teacher learns as much from the student as the student does from the teacher. I am a firm believer of a very practical approach to teaching, especially the sciences, that emphasizes ‘learning by doing’, a method that I myself as a student loved and have seen work in students I have interacted with over the years. The outmoded form of classroom milieu, where the teacher stands in an active teaching role and the student sits in a passive learning role is long gone - teaching is interactive, integrative, involving wider latitude of issues that stretches beyond the subject matter, combines theory with practice, and is capable of connecting individual though ... read more

I currently Have a BA degrees from CSUS in math;I am currently pursuing my graduate degree in Mathematics was well. I have always had an interest in teaching/tutoring. I am always learning new ways on how to help struggling students overcome their anxiety. My Concentration/strength is Math.
It is my mission to make math more understandable and exciting for them. I know that all students capable of learning. I know parents have a difficult enough job with a nevering ending 'to do list' day in and day out, and it is sometimes best for someone else to tackle school subjects where the kids are not excelling. Students often benefit from a fresh perspective,having someone new involved can help them feel more confident in their students again.

I believe that kids learn better when they are enjoying themselves and sometimes even having fun! I try to make the things they are learning interesting and entertaining. If a child does not want to learn, they won't, by adding fun into the equation, you have created the desire to learn in that child. I am very patient and easy-going, but I also know when to lay down the law. I believe that life is very hard without a thorough education, and instilling early in a child the importance of education will only make their lives a little easier.
I earned my Bachelors of Fine Arts in 2003 and I have taught creative writing, theatre, playwriting, and acting since then. In 2005, I gained my substitute teacher credential and have taught all around Sacramento, substituting for teachers in all subjects. I also write plays and poems. I have always had an interest and talent for teaching kids. I ... read more
