Jennifer: Gardena tutor

Certified Tutor

From my first 185 hours of teaching experience through an international English tutoring association to assisting peers and proctoring tests in high school, guiding and sharing academic growth has always aligned with my healthcare goals of helping others succeed.

Before we get into my pedagogical philosophies, I'll quickly rank my favorite subjects to tutor:
- College Statistics (including AP Stats)
- Differential Calculus (including AP Calculus AB)
- Pre-Calculus
- Math
- Elementary Statistics
- AP English Literature and Composition

After moving 15 times across domestic and international borders, I understand the confusion that often accompanies the learning process after repeatedly adjusting to new curricula between school districts. Thus, I apply my teaching and personal learning experience to provide a more empathetic approach to tutoring, where I always try to understand and improve a student's problem-solving thought process.

My exposure to innumerable schools has also made me acutely aware that teacher-student knowledge transmission can vary, so just as I personally did external research to ensure I understood underlying concepts will I explain them to you as we work through problems; true understanding is far superior to unsubstantiated memorization, as it provides the foundation from which formulae may be rederived if forgotten and upon which future learning is predicated.

If my past struggles and concept-driven improvement resonate with your experience, or if you believe my tutoring will provide the greatest benefit to your academic progression, then let's journey on this learning adventure together!
