Nahid H - San Diego, CA 92127 (5.6 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $44.00/hr.
Teaching is a great way to educate and to learn. As a tutor, first, I see the student’s understanding level. I plan ahead of time and prepare proper material. However, if the material is provided, I find effective methods of teaching, and teach each student accordingly. It’s obvious that some techniques work better for some students but not others. Therefor, I choose a good teaching method, and assist students to learn the material better, faster and easier. As a recent graduate of San Diego State University with a Bachelor of Science in Biology and minor in Psychology, I have taken many classes in biology, physics, algebra, psychology, chemistry as well as organic chemistry. I learned how to plan, provide and educated students by teaching and tutoring sciences and English classes for four years. Throughout my working experiences, I learned how to manage and organize an efficient and in

Douglas K - San Diego, CA 92130 (8.6 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $42.50/hr.
I worked as a math tutor as a student worker during my last 3 years of college while working on my BS in Computer Science until 2004. I had previously studied at the Milwaukee School of Engineering and had an extensive background in Math.
I taught at a Catholic High School, Messmer, for one year after graduation until 2005, before returning to ITT as an adjunct instructor. I became a fulltime Math tutor 2 years ago and hold that position today. I have instituted weekly study groups in 6 subjects, math reviews for incoming students, and bridge classes for students going to the next level of math as a skill check and review. Most of my students are at-risk or attention deficit students, so I employ a style where I emphasize a good set of basic skills and knowing why we use the techniques we utilize. Most of my methods are visual and I emphasize laying down the structure of the soluti

Rong F - San Diego, CA 92121 (9.5 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $41.00/hr.
As a recent graduate. I have tutored many of my friends for free when attending UCSD. I have also tutored as a private tutor in high school, and for a few months during college. I tutored kids from ages 8 to 14, teaching mostly in mathematics. I have a great grasp of knowledge on mathematics and also economics. As a teacher, I can adapt to different students. From experience, it is a fact that sometimes a teacher and student conection won't happen between certain teachers and students. I however, am very flexible on my style of teaching, after getting to know my student, I can adapt to the way he/she learns and cater to his/her needs. I am a very patient person that just wants to see my student succeed. I love teaching because it also teaches me new things, it also helps me brush up on my own knowledge.

Antonio F - San Diego, CA 92119 (10 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $48.50/hr.
I prefer to approach every student very slowly in the beginning to understand exactly where their trouble are. Listening is the most important attribute that a tutor can have followed by patience. It's my job to identify where the student's problem are and address those problems. My experience has tought me that most people just need a new perspective to understand certain materials at hand. Providing applications for someone learning new concepts is key for their development because the student understands how the concepts they're learning applies in the real world. I have been told by many of my former students that this is the reason they learn the concepts so well. I finished my lower division coursework at a california community college (AHC) and earned a total of six associate degrees. While at the community college, I administered practice test for students in MESA in mathematics

Joel G - San Diego, CA 92122 (10.4 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $38.00/hr.
Although my vocation for the past 38 years has been Software Engineering, my avocation has always been teaching. I financed my undergraduate education by tutoring one-on-one at the high school level for 3 years. During my career as a Software Engineer I sought out opportunities to teach part-time, evenings and weekends. I have the equivalent of about 7 years of full-time experience teaching High School, Community College and College level math, science and economics courses at a variety of institutions including National University and Seton Hall University.

Brian D - San Diego, CA 92120 (10.6 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $52.00/hr.
I have tutored HS 9-12 and undrgraduate students individually in Mathematics, Chemistry, Biology, Physics and for SAT/ACT testing since the late 1990's. I received teaching credentials for teaching 9-12 Mathematics in California in 2005. I have worked as a Math/Sciences substitute in the Grossmont Union High School District since that time. I have also worked with A+ Professional Tutoring -- in San Diego County -- and Tutor.com -- online -- for many years, in every level of the Sciences and Mathematics. I love Mathematics and I often wear my heart on sleeve; when it comes to Math, I try to infect the student with that bug. I believe that most students have issues with their immediate teaching and, as a result, feel that math has no meaning to them, hence I teach Mathematics in a contextual manner, showing deep meaning for the drills imposed in the classroom curriculums most experience da

Tiffany J - San Diego, CA 92122 (11.4 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $50.00/hr.

I have a BA in International Business. I received 3.7 GPA from San Diego State University. I am a member of Phi Theta Kappa International Honor Society. I have 5+ years in Retail Management.

Philip F - La Mesa, CA 91941 (12.1 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $45.00/hr.
My 5 years as a United States Marine established important core values such as tact, integrity, discipline, and commitment. I bring these values with me into the classroom. I believe that the success of a student depends more on their level of commitment than on inherent talent. However, learning must be an enjoyable experience in order for a strong commitment to be made. I am passionate about mathematics and the sciences, and this passion shows in my teaching style. Students recognize this passion, and it makes the learning experience fun. I am patient, open-minded, and innovative; so if a student is struggling with a particular topic, I find an alternative teaching approach which better suits their learning style. The success of my students is gratifying, to both student and teacher alike. I have been a straight-A student my entire life and I recently graduated from the University of N

Gene M - San Diego, CA 91222 (12.2 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $43.00/hr.
With 2 Masters Degrees in both business and education, and having taught different levels of mathematics for University of Phoenix Online for the past 3 years, I offer strong training background. Additionally, working for San Dieguito Unified HS District and La Jolla Country Day School as a substitute teacher for the past two years, I have learned to quickly develop rapport with middle and high school students. I believe it is better to establish classroom guidelines first, and at the same time establish a good relationship with my students, to get through the work that the students need to do, then relax a bit to have fun with learning. I enjoy being in the classroom or tutoring one-on-one, and based on feedback from students, parents and other teachers, students enjoy working with me as well. I consider these testimonies proof I am an effective teacher and tutor.
