Award-Winning ACT Tutors in Huntington Beach, CA

...as drafting, robotics programming in C++, as well as applied physics. I have worked with students of all background and pride myself on not only teaching testing strategies, but new ways to think: an engineering education does not teach you how to "fix stuff," but rather teaches the willing student how to approach problems in a systematic way. I feel that this approach can be successfully applied to many pursuits outside of the technical world...

...come from a family of educators. All my life I have seen the difference that my mother and father have been able to make in the lives of their students, and though I never aspired to become a full time teacher, my experience working with my students has been more rewarding than I could ever have imagined. I have seen students who could barely comprehend the meaning of simple poems grow to love the work...

I am currently going into my third year studying Biomedical Engineering at the University of California, Irvine. I have experience working as a tutor throughout high school in all subjects but have a passion for math and science. Helping students find their "aha!" moment is what I love as well as getting them excited about the opportunities that will unfold from education. My key objective with any student is going from frustration to motivation.... As a teacher, I believe the focus needs to be on the student. To be attentive towards their needs, their pace, and what their goals are is the only concern during a tutoring session.

...as a math tutor and now tutor with Varsity Tutors. While I have experience in a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Math and Physics as well as test prep. I am a strong proponent of education and believe that test prep tutoring, especially for the ACT and SAT tests is of significance or value in improving a students scores and providing more opportunities for college acceptance and beyond. When I'm not...

...exam is Sentence Correction, since grammar is one of my nerdy passions. I still love watching Schoolhouse Rock! and singing along with Conjunction Junction and A Noun is a Person, Place, or Thing. Outside of the world of academia, my interests lean toward entertainment and fitness, often both at the same time. I like to listen to comedy podcasts like How Did This Get Made?, The Dork Forest, and Go Bayside!, while doing an Insanity...

...moved to Los Angeles. At school I studied film, television, and writing and in L.A., I've become involved in the improv comedy community. As I work to pursue my dream of working in the television and film industry, I'd love to help your kids learn and become more comfortable with their homework material as well as their SAT and ACT testing and their college essays. I hope to hear from you :)

...departmental honors in English. There, I was selected to write a creative thesis in play-writing, and I continue to see my plays performed in small theatres around the country. I was also politically active: I taught a weekly civics class to middle school students, ran a successful campaign for state representative, and volunteered for other statewide races. Currently, I lead post-production on a documentary web series, and I look forward to a life creating socially...

...learns differently and struggles with different concepts, and as long as these learning styles are discovered and communicated, learning is always possible. When it comes to the SAT and essays, understanding exactly what the question is asking and regularly practicing the methods for finding the answer seem to be key in building both confidence and high scores. And when it comes to learning, finding some enthusiasm for the subject is the key to getting motivated.

...skills, and prepare for a successful college experience. I am a Princeton grad with a Bachelors' Degree in Art & Archaeology. As a social worker for a foster family agency, I worked with kids for three years. I have a master's degree in Counseling Psychology and I worked as a Graphic Designer at Disney Channels Worldwide for 10 years. I am currently getting my Master of Fine Arts in Writing for Children and Young Adults...

...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 is all about clarity and structure, and I can help you to achieve both.... I think that the best way to learn is by doing something and then analyzing your performance to find ways to improve.
