Award-Winning ACT Reading Tutors in Sunnyvale, CA

...the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in Cambridge, Massachusetts, recently ranked by US News as the number one university in the country. At MIT I am pursuing a degree in mathematics. During this time I have acquired great experience in tutoring and teaching. I have a total of 8 years of experience tutoring mathematics, particularly calculus. I also have 5 years of experience tutoring in the sciences, such as biology, chemistry, and physics. My experience...

...Reading/Writing, and Mathematics. As a Spanish major who also lived in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and an Economics major, I frequently tutored friends in both subjects for free because I genuinely enjoy teaching. My favorite subject to tutor is language, including Spanish and English (reading and writing), with Economics as a close second. I am a huge proponent of education; I believe it is essential to improving any and everyone’s future opportunities. By working with students...

...enjoyed helping people learn and develop problem-solving skills, especially in my favorite subjects of Math, Chemistry, and Physics. Also, I have always been fascinated with the intrinsic relationship between math and the natural world. I believe that the ability to think critically and solve problems methodically is among the most important tools a student can develop. A native of north-central Idaho, I grew up with a love of the outdoors. In the summer, I work...

...a special gift in the area. I am very good at breaking down mathematical topics to a very basic level and then using that base to build on as I help my students learn. There are many ways to figure out a math problem and I try my very best to use all those methods while tutoring to see which works best for my students. I am also an outdoors person, therefore, I love to...

I have over ten years of experience tutoring and I love working with my students. It is my priority to meet each student's unique learning needs, and I enjoy making seemingly complex concepts easy to understand. Many of my former students/clients refer friends or ask to work with me when new needs arise. I also love to help students with essays and college/grad school applications.

Right now, I work as a Back Office Assistant at an an optometry practice where I am still finding opportunities to teach and train fellow colleagues and interns. What I enjoy the most from these experiences is being able to connect to others and helping them to unlock their potential. In my free time, I enjoy gardening, playing...

...with subjects in Chemistry, Biology and Physics. I have taught Chemistry and Biology courses at UC Berkeley as a lecturer and graduate student instructor (GSI). My enthusiasm and passion for teaching was recognized with the Outstanding GSI Award given by the Dean of Graduate Arts and Sciences to the top 9%. My goal as a tutor is to help each student reach their personal academic goals by teaching effective study habits and test taking strategies...

...educator for UCSD Student Health Services, I have trained incoming volunteers in health education and taught college-students in a variety of health topics. Finally, in my last research position at UCSD School of Medicine, I taught several incoming researchers in immunological, genetic, and biochemical theory as well as relevant applications. I tutor a wide range of subjects including Physics, Math, Biology, English Reading and Writing, and more. While I have a background in many subjects,...

My favorite word is "why." And why is that, you may ask? Well, I am subject to a never-ending flow of knowledge because I perpetually wonder why. The search for answers to any question beginning with "why" has taught me everything I know -- and put me in a position to disseminate my knowledge to other people. Tutoring is the best possible way for me to do that.

...subjects including history, writing, and math. I am passionate about each of them for different reasons. History helps us identify bias, see cause and effect, think critically, and learn empathy. Writing helps us synthesize our thoughts into coherent arguments and can even help us understand things more clearly. Math teaches critical thinking, but also persistence and creativity. What is most important to me, however, is that students feel confident enough to keep trying until they...
