...of Los Angeles and California. I taught college composition for two years. I worked at UCLA's Scholarship Resource Center and helped students find and apply for scholarships based on their unique profiles, which included writing and editing students' essays and statements of purpose. Learning is about discovery from all disciplines. I am a passionate educator interested in teaching English and American literature, composition, preparing students to take the GRE, and technical writing. My professional background...

I've had a passion for helping others ever since I was a teen. From helping young scouts learn new skills, to teaching students new ways to practice math, developing other people's skills has always given me a sense of joy and accomplishment. I would be thrilled to have the opportunity to help anyone find new confidence in themselves!... I believe that everyone has the capacity to learn. We may all come from different families, different settings, and have different brains, but those who have a desire to better themselves can achieve great things! Teaching is a great way to help those who want to grow and learn. It helps both the student and the teacher. It provides a medium in which the one who learns discovers more of their own capabilities, and the one who teaches understands more about the world. All you need is patience, determination, and a desire to be better, and the rest comes naturally!

...to really understand it. This is what my tutoring style targets. I spent the past 4 years teaching Math and Physics professionally. Before teaching, I spent 3 years tutoring at a university where I earned my BS in Biomedical Engineering. I switched from a career in engineering to one in education because I just love working with kids, teenagers, and young adults. For me, coaching a teenager to improve his jumpshot beats educating a client...

...year. My favorite subjects to tutor are standardized test preparation and writing. I believe that great test takers are made, not born. Anyone can improve your SAT or LSAT score with the right practice and guidance. I like to use a teaching method similar to how I would teach a sport by simplifying the concepts and strategies necessary into manageable terms, and then practicing specific skills in need of improvement. I believe great academic writing...

...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 to teach in summer and Saturday enrichment programs.

...a tutor for elementary and university students alike, and it is always my goal to help my students reach a level of self sufficiency that will allow them to succeed in their endeavors. I believe that learning can be accelerated by the presence of a tutor, but at the onus ultimately lies in the student's hands to put in the effort necessary to succeed. My hobbies include Rock Climbing and Golfing when I am feeling...

...but I actually began my college studies in biology at Caltech. My passion for arts and sciences allows me to connect with students with diverse interests. I am most passionate about tutoring math and science, because I think that too many students are told that they're hard or not fun. In my sessions, I always try to relate what we're learning back to something my student is interested in. I really enjoy sharing my love...

...I really enjoy teaching test preparation, as there are so many aspects to taking these exams ranging from test taking strategies, the material itself, as well as preparation right before the tests themselves. I believe that every student requires a different teaching strategy, and I believe in treating every student as an individual rather than a collective. In terms of me personally, I really enjoy classical and electric violin, tennis, DJ'ing, as well as electronic...

...As an avid reader and amateur writer, English has long been a favorite subject and I enjoy discussing alternative viewpoints and thoughts on contemporary and classic literature. Outside of the classroom and the board room, my favorite hobbies involve sports, movies, and my friends and family. Football, basketball, tennis and soccer are my favorite sports, both to play and watch. Having grown up in the mountains of West Virginia, I am an avid skier and...
