I present concepts in a variety of ways, such as: "hands on," visually, problem-solving, and inquiry-based. I reinforce the concepts each time we have a session.

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 that they can use to teach them how to teach themselves- something they'll have to do if they're considering college. 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 st

Since high school I have been involved with tutoring. Although on a voluntary basis I tutored Algebra 2 and BIology in high school. At Stanford, I have been involved with various programs like Math Magic, East Palo Alto Children's Association, HAAS Center...in tutoring students from the area. I have instructed elementary, middle, and high school students thus far. In addition to academic subjects I have tutored guitar at at the beginning and intermediate level. I have studied Sociology and thus I have knowledge about qualitative and quantitative research. I have also received a B at the 1st level and an A at the 2nd level of Stanford's Program in Writing and Rhetoric. I have learned to adjust my tutoring skills specifically for the student based on their learning style; allowing the student to get much more out of the experience. The fact that I've worked with various levels has allowed

Easy going, supportive, hard working, direct, open, and encouraging. My style is to find real world experiences to provide examples for learning. This approach stimulates students to actually enjoy chemistry instead of thinking of it as something difficult or uninteresting. I've also found that the carrot approach works much better than the stick. Everyone can make the grade or higher by being encouraged and helped. Teaching 5-10 years of college level organic chemistry, physical chemistry, inorganic chemistry, biology, biochemistry, and intro chemistry. Also, I've served as a full time lab assistant. I've had extensive experience in both designing exams, lecturing, tutoring, and providing special assistance to students.

Children need to feel empowered, confident, supported and most of all listened to and respected. They will work hard to achieve their goals if they feel that they have someone they trust to help them and stand by them when they get frustrated. It is my job as a tutor to allow the child to discover on their own, make mistakes as well as learn how to fix them. Children need to feel safe and be in an learning environment that supports individual growth and maturity. It is my responsibility as a caregiver and educator to be patient, compassionate, encouraging and loving throughout this process. I graduated from Saint Mary's College with a BA in Sociology in December of 2008. Throughout that time, I was employed as a childcare provider for two wonderful families who each had two young children. I organized educational and recreational activities and tutored them with their reading and writing

The one thing I love about tutoring is helping someone, who is struggling, succeed. I've worked with students from diverse backgrounds ranging from middle school students, college athletes and graduate students. I'm am patient and considerate. As far as my tutoring style, I like to guided my students and teach through experience. For example, having the student work through problems step by step make sure they know how to solve problems and also understand the overall concepts. In addition, I promote good study habits and show students how to prepare for exams within a particular subject. I'm very good at simplifying complex concepts. I earned my Bachelors of Science in Psychology with minors in Chemistry and Biological Science at San Jose State University. As an undergraduate, I was an honors student.

I love working with students. One on one is even better than teaching groups of thirty in my book. I also worked ten years as a Physical Chemist where I had to know Math and Physics as much as Chemistry. I have taught Math, Physics, Biology in addition to Chemistry, and tutored in all these areas. I also graded essays for the state of Georgia and so I could sharpen any students essay skills. I have lived in Africa and so am ready to work with any culture. I believe that each student should learn to be in charge of their own education. My goal is to help them achieve that goal. I am not quick to jump in with the answer but can wait patiently for them to work through the problem. Since I learned by a very different method than my teachers tried to teach, I look for a students learning style. If he is not getting the concept, I'll try another or even invent one on the spot.
