Carefully selected, highly-credentialed ACT Science tutors in Del Mar, CA
"I have years of tutoring experience. I have worked most with high school students in math and science, but I'm always excited to spend time with younger students. I have always loved learning and school, but I know it's difficult for some people. I have the patience and enthusiasm to make even the most difficult seeming proof accessible and even fun."

"During my first year of college, I taught a conversation class for Beginning Portuguese language students. I also instructed two elementary school students in beginning piano.
Having taught in a wide variety of subjects has led me to encounter many different teaching scenarios. Along with helping students conquer general subject knowledge, problems like test anxiety and time management are my specialty."

" I realized how much fun it is to teach and continued tutoring when I was in college. I tutored my fellow students in Mandarin Chinese, French, and chemistry. After I graduated, I went to China and taught English both at a school and privately for three years. Right now I'm teaching English as a Second Language at a language school here in San Diego."

"I was a writing tutor at UCSD for two years, working with all levels of writers, and as much as I love biology, writing is a blast to tutor! I was also a tutor for Immunology at UCSD. While my experience is with college-level subjects, I enjoy helping students understand the basics as well. There is nothing like seeing that look of understanding on a student's face! It makes it all worthwhile. In my free time I enjoy hanging out with my friends, whether that be playing old school video games at home, or going out Salsa and Swing dancing." ...

" Even in high school I would help my friends with their homework, so I guess you can say I've been tutoring even longer than 11 years.
I always try to find ways to make the subject matter easy to relate to. I don't believe there is such a thing as a difficult subject, I just believe that each student has strengths and weaknesses, and that it is best to focus on the strengths and use them to overcome the weaknesses. For example, some students struggle with word problems in math, but they enjoy drawing pictures."

" From an early age I always loved math and, unlike many of my classmates, took a great pleasure in being introduced to new topics.
I like to describe math as a sort of puzzle. Each piece builds off of something else, creating a more complete picture. It's therefore always important to have a solid grasp of the basics - to understand the previous steps - before learning each new topic."

"Originally I am from Issaquah, WA and moved to beautiful, sunny San Diego a few years back. I tutor all subjects, but I mainly focus on math and sciences as those are my passion. Growing up my dad, an Electrical Engineer, used to do math with me for fun. It became ingrained in me and I thoroughly enjoy all levels of math."

" I have been teaching on and off since then. I also worked for Mad Science for a couple of years, where I taught fun, hands-on science lessons to elementary and middle school students. During my graduate program I worked part-time for UCLA Bruincorps, where I tutored middle school students in math and mentored a team of undergraduate tutors. For the past year I worked in an affordable housing community where I ran an after school program for students of all ages."

"After graduating with a Bachelor's degree in chemistry, I spent a year at the University of Washington in Seattle where I worked in a drug metabolism and toxicity lab while taking graduate classes in medicinal chemistry. I have since moved back to San Diego where I am currently attempting to earn my Master's of Fine Arts degree. My experience tutoring starts in high school, where I tutored peers and younger siblings in all areas of school work. At USD, I tutored general and organic chemistry to undergraduates."

"Before coming here to San Diego, I was a high school chemistry teacher for five years in Burbank, where I taught Chemistry, Honors Chemistry, and A.P. Chemistry. It was a wonderful experience, and I have learned so much: not just good teaching methods, but also how to relate to students on a personal level. This, I feel, is more important because it helps me connect the concepts that I'm teaching to something that they are more familiar with."
