Jeffrey K - Vallejo, CA 94590 (20.5 mi) - Marine Biology Tutor - $47.50/hr.
I am patient yet firm. My personal background in mathematics was fairly rigorous, so I always make my students show their work. As the subject material gets tougher, it becomes more critical to be able to check all stages of one's work.
One of my math teachers gave me some sage advice: "Math teachers are lazy. We find the quickest and shortest route to a solution." I've taken this tongue-in-cheek wisdom to heart in my own way. While there is only one single solution for any math problem, there are infinitely elegant ways to arrive at that solution. I show my students different ways to solve problems because flexibility is key. Mathematics is a great way to keep one's thinking nimble and that can help throughout one's education. I earned a degree in Applied Mathematics and have always been "the go to guy" when my friends high school aged kids need help with their math homework. I hold my

Laurie M - Vacaville, CA 95687 (27.2 mi) - Marine Biology Tutor - $45.50/hr.
I have discovered over the past year of substituting that I absolutely love teaching. Students are very comfortable with me as I am a very positive, friendly person who smiles a lot. As the parent of a college student, I was a tutor for 12 years. I know how to make learning fun and rewarding. I have a BS in Business and have worked in Mortgage and Banking for many years. This industry requires excellent written communication skills as well as practical math skills. I have been a substitute teacher for grades K - 12 for the past year in all subjects and have C-Best Certification. I am very familiar with the curriculum and I have an excellent rapport with students.

Michael S - Alameda, CA 94501 (37.9 mi) - Marine Biology Tutor - $44.00/hr.
As a recent college graduate, I know how to work hard. I earned a bachelor degree, BS in Marine Biology from UC Santa Cruz, where I took many science and math classes. I do not have any experience in tutoring, but I have been a mentor to kids in other jobs I have had. In the job I had where I mentored kids, it was a program called Lil Kickers. This program was for kids 3-10 years old where they were taught how to listen to instructions and communicate with one another. This was mixed in with games that helped their motor skills and ultimately helped them with their soccer skills. I have learned it is very important to be enthusiastic and passionate with the kids.

"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, even

Joelle S - Davis, CA 95618 (40.7 mi) - Marine Biology Tutor - $43.50/hr.
Having a biology and pre-veterinary science undergraduate degree, and now a master’s degree in marine science, I have a great foundation to tutor students in math and science. I have always had strong math skills and can tutor in algebra, calculus, and geometry. I have taught 2nd through 12th grade in an informal setting as a science educator at the Newark Museum in NJ and at the graduate level as a teaching assistant at my marine science institution. During high school, I tutored a foreign student in English and math, and tutored other younger students in an after-school program, helping them with their homework. I enjoy helping students develop an understanding of material. I prefer asking questions to engage students to think about the subject at hand. I work to assure that all questions are addressed and the student feels comfortable with the subject. I will assure the student compr
