Carefully selected, highly-credentialed PSAT tutors in Rancho Santa Fe, CA
"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. In my high school I began a Big Brother Big Sister program in which high school students paired up and tutored students from an adjacent elementary school."

"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. While my thirst to get into the lab has brought me to San Diego State, tutoring gives me a way to help students that still connects me to the teaching experience."

" I first started teaching when I worked as a camp counselor in Julian, CA, educating kids from 8-16 about gardening and organic farming – this was the first time I had ever been in a teaching position, and I loved seeing the enthusiasm of my campers grow each week. I have since become an academic tutor at the USD Writing Center, helping undergraduate and graduate students develop their reading and writing skills. Students that I have tutored have come in with a variety of requests, including help with brainstorming and analyzing assigned texts for class, working on formal academic writing, constructing an argument, use of MLA or AP styles, ...

"In my spare time in college, I was also known to help out my peers in various subjects, including math, accounting and essay composition. I love breaking down topics for the students and helping them understand concepts on a basic level and building up from that. I absolutely love the feeling of helping a student work through confusion and reach understanding. I believe every student is different and learns differently. Therefore, I believe in getting to know what works for the student and how to work with them on a level that they understand so that they may be successful in their endeavors. I am a very patient person and love interacting ...

"I have had two years of training in tutoring and presenting material effectively. It is a common mistake of tutors to simply lecture rather than explain and interact. That is something you need not fear from me.
I am a big fan of individual one-on-one tutoring, since a student's individual needs can often be overlooked in a classroom setting. It is my goal to make up for any deficits that a student might experience from lack of teacher attention and to advance his or her knowledge beyond that of his or her peers."
