Carefully selected, highly-credentialed ISEE tutors in Los Angeles, CA
"The subjects I have tutored the most include math and science, though there are a variety of subjects I can tutor. Throughout the years, I have created a teaching style that emphasizes utilization of what each student already knows and helping them create links and critical thoughts based on the foundations they already have.
When not at school or work, I like to express my creativity through music and crafts. I also frequent local coffee shops, book stores, and performances/shows.."

" I think my fondness for tutoring came from my dad playing math games with me in the car on the way to school as a child. It forced me to think up the simplest way to solve a problem, which became increasingly more fun for me over time. On the weekends I enjoy hiking, spending time with friends, watching movies, reading, and playing with my adorable dog, Jessie. I love working with children and young adults and look forward to helping them to the best of my ability!."

"I started getting paid for it during college when I tutored students in Pre-Calculus to upper level Calculus courses. I have tutored students that are Engineering majors to those going into law. Teaching a huge array of people that come from different backgrounds, I have to tutor in a way that everyone is able to understand. Additionally, my degree in Meteorology helps those that are in Chemistry and Physics as the fundamentals of meteorology require a background in these fields."

"I like to make students believe that understanding and mastering a subject is possible through dedication, patience and hard work. This is a belief that they will ultimately prove to themselves as they improve their performance on the subject. Another thing I emphasize when teaching math or chemistry is the importance of understanding the basic rules and reasons of why a certain operation is done rather than memorizing what to do when they see a problem that looks familiar. When tutoring, my goal is to make the student as comfortable as possible and gain his trust so that he or she can share their insecurities and issues that they have about ...

" After graduating from UC Berkeley in 2007, I had many experiences working with youth and children in social services and counseling settings as well as academic contexts.

"In college and graduate school, my friends would ask me to proofread their papers or clarify some of the topics from our classes. After my studies, I returned to my old high school as a substitute teacher where I spent a semester teaching algebra and geometry classes and directing the school play. Among my peers, I tend to be the go-to guy for any questions about math or grammar. When I'm not tutoring or working at a day job, I like to attend live theater, write, hike, or participate in anything else that is both active and creative.." ...
