USC Graduate Offering SAT/ACT/College App/K-12 Tutoring

I really pride myself in personalizing my tutoring. I try to never have more than 6-7 students at a time so that I can provide the best possible personalization of teaching to each student. Additionally, being at a similar age to many of my students helps me relate to them a lot better than some older tutors may be able to; I have more recent experience with taking the same courses/tests as them or applying to colleges like them, and this helps a lot in my tutoring personalization. In terms of my teaching style, I love being able to connect with students beyond the structured environment of most classrooms and tutoring/prep academies. I try to provide my students with just enough structure so that they know how to study, how to test, etc., but enough autonomy so that they can learn how to succeed on their own. Helping students navigate this fine line is really meaningful, as many ... read more

Read More About Ulhas B...

I studied chemistry in India (IIT - Delhi, MSc) and in Canada (McGill University, Montreal, PhD). During my PhD, I extensively tutored undergraduates and high school students. I have several year's experience in the pharmaceutical industry and continue to help students in learning concepts in chemistry. I understand the need to have a focused preparation for exams - something which is lacking in the education system at large. I offer my tutoring services in helping students to score high in tests and quizzes.

My comments on tutoring MCAT : Taking a standardized test requires a special set of skills in itself, so it is no surprise that many individuals (myself included) have spend countless hours dissecting and conquering them. Allow me to share with you some of the tips and tricks I learned as an MCAT tutor.

I have been teaching/tutoring students in life science for over 20 years, but it all started with my BA from UC Berkeley in Integrative Biology. At Berkeley I tutored/taught part-time as a Lab Teacher at Berkeley Community College, a study group leader at UC Berkeley student learning center, and a Kaplan MCAT tutor. I then earned my MA in Zoology (with a thesis in molecular evolution from University of South Florida) and mentored/taught College Freshmen Biology and worked in immunology at the Cancer Research Center. I moved back to the Bay Area and worked at Biotech companies including Genentech, and Amgen. In 2013 I earned my Biology and Chemistry California Teacher Credential from CSUEB, and now have been a full-time life-science teacher for 5 years for grades 7-12 in public, private, and specialized education schools. I have taught middle-school life-science, Biology, Marine Biol ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate student at UC Berkeley, I was a TA for twelve semesters in a range of physics classes. In 2002 I won the UC Berkeley Outstanding Graduate Student Instructor award. After graduating I was a lecturer for 2 years at 50% time. This was at California College of the Arts in San Francisco. There I developed and taught new coursed in math, physics and programming that were fine tuned for the needs of the architecture students. I can make complete sets of student evaluations available to you on request --- they are very favorable. I spent many office hours working one-on-one with the weaker students, and so I have considerable tutoring experience.
As a classroom instructor, I am conscious that one needs to constantly engage with and interact with the class. I always taught in a tutorial style, where after I've introduced the material the students must solve a puzzle or problem ... read more
