Certified ACT Science Tutor in Berkeley, CA
...preparation. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, the subjects that interest me the most are calculus, college level mathematics, and test prep. I have a calm, adaptive tutoring style. I revise my tutoring strategies to fit each student's unique traits and I believe that a calm demeanor causes students to be less stressed, which in turn improves their performance. In my spare time, I enjoy following 49ers football and playing obscure computer games.

Josh: Berkeley ACT Science tutor
Certified ACT Science Tutor in Berkeley, CA
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.

Kevin: Berkeley ACT Science tutor

...tutoring is understanding each individual's needs and learning methods. Everyone is different and to be a successful tutor, you cannot apply the same teaching methods to every student. Understanding how quickly students learn, what types of strengths they have, and their motivations for receiving tutoring is key to helping a student achieve their academic goals. My tutors have been some of my greatest mentors, and I want to be able to pass that on to...

Jennifer: Berkeley ACT Science tutor
Certified ACT Science Tutor in Berkeley, CA
...a student can surprise themselves with their own abilities is the best thing a tutor can ask for. For mathematics, I've taken up to Calculus BC in high school, and Multivariable Calculus at UCR. I understand the concepts, but I can also explain them using applicable examples. Really, math is like a language; you need to know the basics before you get speaking fluently. Math can be difficult, but it can be even more fun...

I would credit my teaching philosophy to my mom - a college psychology professor prior to immigrating to the U.S. The methods she used to help me learn and to drive my curiosity still influence how I think and learn concepts today. From her, I learned that a meaningful education requires more than just knowing facts and how to find the right answers. A good teacher must help students recognize their individual learning...
