I really enjoy working with students and I feel that education is the most important aspect of an individuals life. I have taught at John W. North High School in Riverside, Ca. One of my assignments was to fill in for an AP Statistics teacher while she was on maternity leave. Since that day I have feel in love with biostatistics and took all of my graduate level electives in Biostatistics courses. I enjoy both the one on one mentoring and also engaging students in small groups and as an entire classroom. The one on one mentoring gives me a feel for the best way for that particular student to learn, therefore I can adjust my teaching style to their strengths.

I enjoy working with high school and college-age students who are committed to success. I am a firm believer in the maxim that your success in understanding or mastering a concept is directly proportional to the amount of effort you are willing to apply to it. I love helping my students grasp difficult concepts and watching the pride they develop in themselves as a result. I also enjoy teaching adults new skills and helping them overcome their initial fears of failure and feelings of insecurity. Everyone is capable of learning something new- it is never too late! I am a very patient and methodical instructor who tailors each tutoring course to the individual student's needs. I have earned a BA in Social Science and an MA in History, as well a California Community College Teaching Certification. I have taught numerous history lectures at Palomar and Grossmont Community Colleges an

I love working with all level of students. I never give up on my students and expect them to never give up on themselves. Building confidence in learners is key to my educational approach, and I try my best to be aware of frustration levels. Everyone learns a different way, and I believe it is my job to figure out my students’ best learning style. My main effort in teaching goes to having my students fully understand the subject they are learning, and feel open enough to ask any questions. A good educational foundation opens up a world of opportunity. Since knowing I wanted to teach my junior year of high school, education has been my passion. I went on to Sonoma State University where I earned my BA in Liberal Studies with a concentration in Kinesiology (PE). I then went on to Cal State San Marcos to obtain my Multiple Subject Teaching Credential. Since having my credential I have had t

I graduated from the University of California, San Diego in 2003 with a BS in Chemistry. I then went on to complete a MS in Chemistry at San Diego State University. During my time at SDSU, I worked as a Teaching Assistant for general chemistry and organic chemistry courses. I prepared lectures, monitored chemistry labs, proctored and graded exams, and helped individual students during office hours. I am also an experienced scientific writer and I have authored papers published in scientific journals. I currently work at an academic institute as an organic chemist. I believe that people learn in many different ways, and the key to effective teaching is using a combination of visual and auditory cues. I am a patient person, and I'm extremely passionate about chemistry and would love to help others discover their potential in this field. Because math and science go hand in hand, I unde

Instructed all physics laboratories at San Diego State University for calculus and non-calculus based physics courses. These courses included: Mechanics, Electricity and Magnetism, and Modern Physics. Instructed a physics courses under the MESA program. Instructed optics courses to US Air Force depot personnel. With respect to my teaching style, I liken it to a series of books written by Isaac Asimov entitled, Understanding Physics. These books have little math but explain the physical concepts in a story-like fashion. I find this very important because many physics books and instructors put too much emphasis on the mathematics and not enough on conveying the physical concepts. The result is a student who is unable to solve physics problems. First, the student must know the physical concept which then enables them to apply the correct mathematics in order to solve the problem

I started tutoring when I was a college student. Upon my entrance to the SDSU Department of Chemistry, I was granted an opportunity to teach as a TA in Chemistry. I had been teaching for 4 years before I received my master's degree in December of 2007. In these 4 years, I always had good evaluations from students. As a result of my hard work, the SDSU Residential Education Office decided to hire me as a contracted tutor in the dormitory area in 2007. In addition to teaching and tutoring at school, I also teach as a private math and science tutor. I strongly believe my experiences will help a lot. My style of teaching is professional and fun. I usually make friends with students so that they don’t feel stressed and bored. Too much pressure doesn’t help learning. I think students can learn better in a relaxing environment. In addition, when I am teaching, I usually make examples from daily

As a visual learner and instructor, I believe the best way for children to retain information is by breaking down the task itself and visualizing it in stages/phases. Often times children feel overwhelmed by the countless lessons taught inside the classroom, resulting in defeated attitudes and poor grades. With the right learning fundamentals, children can attack their assignments with confidence and ease. I speak from experience as I was an elementary parent's nightmare. I consistently had trouble with mathematics and reading comprehension, and spent several hours a night having assignments read to me. I recently earned a Master's Degree in Communication Management with an emphasis in Branding and Marketing Communications. In the two years it took to complete my degree, I commuted from San Diego to Los Angeles several times a week, interned for various companies, served as a brandi

I have been a straight-A student my entire life and I recently graduated from the University of New Hampshire with a 4.0 GPA. I earned my B.S. in Physics (Astronomy emphasis) with a minor in Applied Mathematics. Though my expertise lies in mathematics and the sciences, I am also knowledgeable in topics ranging from history to English grammar and composition. Much of my academic success is due to my ability to prepare for exams. I scored a 32 on the ACT, as well as perfect scores of 800 on the SAT2 Writing and GRE Mathematics exams. I gained teaching-related experience during my year as an Instructional Assistant, in which I assisted students with math, science, English, and GED exam preparation. At the college level, I spent 2.5 years tutoring in physics, math, and astronomy, as well as a semester in a college-level general physics class working as a teaching assistant. My 5 years as a U

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 (Calculus 1,2,3, and 4) while also working the maximum of 20 hours a week in the campus math lab (walk-in tutoring). Furthermore, I attended and graduated from UCLA with a bachelor's degree in physics and a minor in mathematics and finished the necessary coursework to apply to all medical school programs in to the country. I tutored for side money while attending UCLA. Currently, I'm a graduate student at SDSU. I'm two courses and a Master's thesis away from receiving my Master's degree in Physics. 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

I am most proud of my ability to mitigate math anxiety. I think children learn best in a positive affective environment where they are encouraged to achieve at their highest potential. In math, the applications are often the discovery and I share the excitement of my students when they arrive at their goals. I love math and I love working with middle school age children. I hold a K-12 Multiple Subjects credential with supplemental authorizations in math, physical science, and general science. I also have a BA in Psychology and I have taken many math and physics classes. I am also a published writer. For the past five years I have taught Algebra I and Physical Science at a charter school.

My goal in teaching is to ensure that my students have a strong understanding of the subject and do not just follow a formula or recite rote knowledge. In addition to explaining concepts, I like to use models and present example problems with which the student can demonstrate his grasp of the topic. If one explanation does not make sense to a student, I try different ones until it finally "clicks". I am a patient instructor and bring an enthusiastic attitude to teaching, since I've found through experience that the best teachers are those who communicate excitement and interest. I am a graduate student in materials science at UC San Diego, and a recent graduate of the California Institute of Technology with a BS in Mechanical Engineering.
