...If you're about to take the SAT and you're worried about the math section, never fear I'm not a "math person," but I found ways to get that high score! Above all I believe that learning can be fun, that the pursuit of knowledge is important and ongoing, and that the skills it takes to succeed in school are worth developing because they're important in life, too. I've traveled all over the world and I...

...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.

Currently, I lead post-production on a documentary web series, and I look forward to a life creating socially conscious...

...calculus, and have also worked as a high school mathematics teacher for algebra and geometry. I can tutor any subject in mathematics, from the elementary level through the college level, and can also assist with preparation for the SAT and the GRE.

I am a motivated 25 year old UCR alumni. I studied Biology as an undergraduate and am a person who sees a world filled with young souls yearning for the ability to change our lives for the better.

...major from the University of Michigan with a passion for helping my students achieve their full potential. I believe all students do better when they have fun (and maybe even become passionate about) learning the subjects they struggle with, and it is absolutely imperative in my teaching method that everyone's enjoying themselves! Learning should be fun, since it's something we all continue to do for the rest of our lives, even after we graduate. If...

...closed integral of heat engines; the tricky solution equations from Algebra 1 that determine the ratio of soda and punch, or the different meanings behind stories as one ages which are fascinating to me). The mental leap from symbols on a page to a tangible function for one's life was the part of the education system that I feel was not outright taught but would have benefited my class mates immensely. My love of learning...

...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 workout or practicing yoga. I also enjoy creating quirky blog posts...

...Through working and traveling I've gotten to share my love of books with new friends from around the world, and I'm happy to continue this at home. I tutor because I love helping people and making friends. As a high school student, I took the SAT and ACT three times, as well as ten AP classes. I remember how stressful these were and would love to alleviate this stress for someone else!

Standardized tests are a drag but studying for them doesn't...
