Experience Summary
Before I begin, please PLEASE visit my site to contact me: thinktanktutor. dudaone. com I offer both Online and In-Person tutoring.
Im David the Math tutor. I started ThinkTankTutor as a part time job while I attend College. ThinkTankTutor has turned into more then just a part time job, its my very own small corner where I can use my knowledge and experience to guide students and build their confidence in Mathematics. Now Im taking ThinkTankTutor to the next level with Online Skype Tutoring, Text-A-Tutor and Free Sunday Morning Tutoring. I have also added a new team member to ThinkTankTutor, Ysidra Camarena, who works with elementary and middle school students, she is a great addition to the team.
We tutor in the Brentwood area all grade levels of Mathematics from Elementary to High School and College. We also tutor Chemistry, Physics, Spanish and Biology. We have experience helping students study for the SAT, ACT, ASVAB, CAHSEE and GED. We can help you study for the Math Assessment exam for LMC, DVC, CCC and Las Positas College.
Teaching Style
I believe in Minimalism. I tutor Math from the point of view that the shortest path is the best path but everyone learns differently and finding the right method for my students is one of my main goals when tutoring. I teach students multiple ways to solve a particular problems and they get to decide which method works best for them, hopefully its the simplest method. Public School class rooms have 30 plus students and only one instructor. The low instructor to student ratio makes it difficult for more then one method to be taught leaving some students behind. When students feel they don't understand, they become self conscience of their perceived lack of knowledge making them less confident in mathematics which leads to procrastination on their homework . Besides finding the right method, another of my principle goals is helping my students grow in confidence. I want my students to enjoy mathematics and enjoy success.
