"Making the Dean's List all four years as an undergraduate as well as becoming a member of Phi Beta Kappa, I have a passion for literature, writing, world history, and learning new languages. I have been a tutor since high school and have coached students of a wide array of ages and interests in topics ranging from Spanish to algebra to writing. In college, my primary tutoring focus was on essay writing and editing, a skill which I developed and honed during my time at UCLA. At the present, I am taking some time off of school to work and prepare for law school admissions." ...

"In that time, I have taught math, reading, writing, and language arts to thousands of students from grades K-8, at all levels of ability, including in the smaller, more individualized Special Education and Resource settings. Teaching such a wide range of students has taught me that no two children learn exactly the same way. Indeed, learning styles vary so greatly that one must be something of a detective to tap into each child's unique strengths and challenges in order to maximize the former while overcoming the latter. Children have an innate love of learning that sometimes becomes lost in the school setting; my goal is to restore that ...

"I never thought much of it; I was just trying to help. Little did I know that this would translate into something much greater when I became a tutor. Never did I think a job would allow me to make such a big impact on students.
Tutoring has become an important part especially since I have been studying Mechanical Engineering at the University of Southern California."

" I have been living in southern California my entire life, except for a ten month period in 2009 when I lived in Japan. While I was there, I taught at a school that specialized in English, and I had plenty of time to absorb the culture. I got my first tutoring job about ten years ag, when a friend asked me to tutor her son in English and algebra. I enjoyed it so much that I took on several more students, helping them with homework and general study habits. From there, I did my two semesters in Japan, and when I got back I taught at USC's writing center, helping people with their writing and grammar." ...

" My teaching style is one of observation and practice--first the students have to see the concepts demonstrated, and then practice the same concepts on their own until they feel comfortable with applying that approach in their own problem-solving. However, the most necessary attribute of a good teacher seems to be enthusiasm for the material. Before I started graduate school I worked as an Outreach Instructor for the Arizona Science Center, where I was commended for my creativity and engaging style. I have a wide array of teaching experience, from introducing poetry to second-graders to teaching grammatical structure to ...

" I started tutoring casually by helping out my friends in calculus. This soon transitioned into more formal tutoring. Recently, I have spent my time tutoring elementary and high school students in math. I do not have a preference of what age I work with, as long as I feel I can pass along my enjoyment of the subject."

"I love to tutor in all subjects, but the sciences are definitely my favorite. I love that the sciences help you understand things about daily life, and I find the application of sciences very interesting! I started tutoring my friends when I was in my freshman year of college. I am excited to share knowledge with others, I am continuing on that path to help others learn and find their own passion. I tutor all ages and have even spent some time teaching English to Chinese children, while studying abroad in China."

" I tutor a wide variety of subjects, including literature, history, and SAT test prep. I have also taught soccer at No. 1 Soccer Camps and have worked with kids from ages 8-18. The thing I like best about tutoring is when a student of mine gains the confidence to tackle and correctly answer a question they previously would not have been able to answer."
