Janae K. - Salinas, CA 93901 (14.7 mi) - Science Tutor - $45.00/hr.
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 that the

Deborah M - Monterey, CA 93940 (1.9 mi) - Science Tutor - $51.00/hr.
Having grown up in Costa Rica attending a bilingual school, I am fully fluent in English and Spanish, and tutored language learners often in high school and college. I received my B.S. in Biology from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo where I was involved in the Science Education club, and assisted in several university and state-funded after-school programs for middle school students. After college I immediately went into a PhD program in Ecology & Evolution at the University of Illinois at Chicago, where I maintained a 4.0 GPA, and taught undergraduate Genetics and Ecology labs for one year. I am currently working towards my bilingual Single Subject Teaching Credential and a Master's degree in Education. I believe in a student's capability to reach his or her goals, and find that students are much more rewarded through a learning experience in which they use their previous knowledge to arrive a

Chelsea P - Monterey, CA 95940 (2 mi) - Science Tutor - $48.50/hr.
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 American Red Cross since I was 16, and in 2007 decided to take the next step and become an instructor for them. I now teach CPR/First Aid, and Lifeguard Training for different facilities in the area. 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

Sandra B - Carmel, CA 93921 (2.4 mi) - Science Tutor - $44.00/hr.
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. 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.

Marianne T - Del Rey Oaks, CA 93940 (4.9 mi) - Science Tutor - $49.50/hr.
As a voracious reader, I have always been interested in many subjects in the world, above and beyond what I have studied in school. I earned a bachelor's degree in English and a recent master's in international management with a focus on migrant education/bilingual education. I spent years working with faculty on books at the college level, helping them to tailor their work for nonreaders, for visual learners, and students whose interests are far different from their own bookish world.
So, for twenty years, I urged faculty to write for students as they are, not as they'd wish them to be. Then, I stepped back into the role of student and experienced the struggle to master a foreign language, and to learn how to write in that language. And I've had 3 1/2 years of direct experience tutoring ESL students to write papers in English, political science, and history. My tutoring/teaching/edit

Lysa F - Marina, CA 93933 (9 mi) - Science Tutor - $47.00/hr.
I believe in a multi-sensory approach to learning. All children learn in their own way. My job as a teacher is to provide instruction in a way the child will learn best, whether that is through movement, audio, manipulative or visual cues. I understand that all children learn at their own pace and I am patient. Learning should also be relevant to a student's life. If the students understands how algebra, reading or music will help them in life, they are more persistent in their education. Finally, learning should be fun. Games allow children to master material without tedious repetition and allow students to make mistakes in a non-judgmental arena. I typically end tutoring sessions with a short game reviewing material the student has mastered. The student leaves with a feeling of success and confidence they have earned. In college, the focus of my degree was creative writing and social a

Jeannene B - Marina, CA 93933 (9.2 mi) - Science Tutor - $57.50/hr.
I love teaching students to discover the answers to questions and problems that otherwise eluded them. I am a firm believer in student-centered learning, meaning the students are given the opportunity to research, discover, and progress through various techniques. Providing the appropriate learning environment is essential for a student to fully experience their potential. Therefore, I gladly provide each student with information that will give them the opportunity to produce better study habits and test taking abilities. I believe using these tools will provide students with a life long learning advantage that will follow them through all aspects of their lives. As an educator, I have been given the opportunity to teach in various venues and modalities. Through these opportunities I have taught adults, children and teenagers using many techniques and styles.

Stephanie Y - Salinas, CA 93908 (11.8 mi) - Science Tutor - $49.50/hr.
My teaching style is based on certain principles which I believe forms the foundation of the way I teach. One basic principle is that one truly must have that desire to teach others. Another principle is to believe that knowledge needs to grow and needs to be shared with all who wishes to learn. A third principle of mine is the importance to be able to be flexible in the method of teaching as there are different learning abilities and one must be able to recognize and try different teaching approaches to meet the desired goals. In addition to the above principles, my people skills and patience and the desire to be able to help others in achieving their educational goals has led me to this teaching opportunity. My career as a Clinical Laboratory Scientist offered me opportunities to not just perform laboratory tests, ranging from general lab work to microbiology, but to share my experien

I am a key believer that education helps a child flourish throughout life. I am patient, laid back, and sincere and want to do all that I can to make sure that a child understands the subject at hand. For many years I have worked with youth, and I hope to continue doing so. I love children and have a passion for mentoring and educating. For the past two years I worked at a YMCA after-school program tutoring children, and assisting in the supervision of the program. I recently finished completing my bachelor’s degree in business management from Liberty University, and have a solid understanding of English, Math, and Science.

Mary S - Salinas, CA 93906 (15.6 mi) - Science Tutor - $46.50/hr.
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 fun is also an asset. The extensive course work, I received in college has enabled me to teach others to become academically proficient. 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.

Phuc N - Salinas, CA 93905 (17.5 mi) - Science Tutor - $44.50/hr.
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 well o
