"
My tutoring experience includes being a Supplemental Instruction Leader at USC for General Chemistry. I taught small (1-30 students) and large (approx. 150 students) sessions in which I reinforced concepts taught in the classroom. As a tutor, I strive to mold students to be efficient and effective learners, so they have the ability to pursue extracurricular activities that are increasingly important for personal growth and applications."

"I graduated as valedictorian and moved to Santa Barbara, California to study aquatic biology at UCSB, where I graduated with honors in aquatic zoology.

" I mainly helped students with math, but also helped with other subjects like English and Chemistry. Also, I have always been helpful to friends and family in need of help understanding math.
I understand the difficulties one might face with math and try to think about why a certain person might struggle. The best way to learn math is to completely understand it."

"There have been times in my life when I was also the struggling student. Therefore, I understand both sides of the equation, and I strive to reach that wonderful moment where they feel as if they 'get it' and feel good about themselves with confidence in their abilities in a particular subject. To me, that is the greatest reward of teaching.."

"My favorite age groups to tutor range from elementary school to junior high school. I believe tutoring is mostly about building a relationship with my students. When I was younger, I was blessed with a mentor who taught me so many of the ethics, morals, and philosophies that I know today. He also taught me about the importance of learning and education."

"Discovering a love of sharing the joy of learning with students, I added some classes from the Curry School of Education to my course load. I took classes on technology in the classroom, curriculum development, and teaching theory among others and used the skills I learned here to teach in summer and Saturday enrichment programs. I recently moved to Los Angeles and found myself missing the interaction I had with the students I knew while attending UVA, and I am so excited to meet my future pupils! Nothing can beat sharing the joy of learning (especially learning something new for the first time) with someone else. My favorite subjects to ...

" My tutoring style is very student-based, where I pay close attention to what concepts they are most struggling with and break down complex ideas into more manageable chunks. Also, I believe the SAT tests more critical reading than any other skill, and Iencourage students to be very detail-oriented about what the question is actually asking. Through tutoring at Chapman, I am used to students coming to me because they are having trouble with a subject, or just because they want to stay on track and excel. Through my experience teaching violin, I am comfortable with students of all ages.." ...

"I'm very friendly and down to earth, and I have tutored at the elementary and high school levels. My teaching style is mostly inquiry based (meaning I like to help students figure out the answers themselves by asking them questions, but it can vary depending on the subject. My greatest strength is economics but I am also proficient in Spanish and math of all levels.."
