I am currently working as a tutor in Computer Science and Mathematics at American River College. I am also a father of two, with one on the way!

...include Computer Science, Chemistry, and Physics. My students tend to be pretty successful because I'm easy to get along with; I'm friendly and easygoing. I understand that school can be difficult and stressful - I've been there, and lived it, and been on both sides of the tutor/student relationship. I will move at your pace, and when you're having difficulty I can be the resource you need to make it much more manageable.... Always take a...

...job. Tutoring is wonderful in that I help each student learn their individual potential and see that anything is possible! I am currently in the honors program at USC to receive my masters in social work for clinical counseling. I believe I am patient, understanding and excellent at building foundations that will stay with you for a lifetime. I would love to help you with your educational pursuit and I will make sure that frustration...

...Sciences. In addition, I have three certifications which are ESL Teacher, TESOL, and TEFL. My experience with tutoring is a total of eighteen years that includes working with students in person and online. The subjects I tutor are English, Spanish, History, Study Skills, Science, Reading, Writing, Social Studies, Mathematics, and many other academic subjects. I enjoy tutoring English and Spanish the most because it helps in so many ways with grammar, public speaking, and using...

Ambitious and yet Capable, Courageous but still Realistic. Many might define my goals in life to be quixotic and visionary but the inspiring phrase "Nothing is impossible" clings closely to my every decision. I am passionate about living life to the fullest and making a difference in the lives of others.

...goal is to help students become independent, comfortable, and confident in the fields they are studying. I love helping people get to the "aha" moment when they really understand what's being taught. In my experience, one of the most important parts of tutoring is setting clear expectations at the beginning and working toward a common goal. Given the right goals and assistance, I truly believe that anyone can master any of the subjects I teach.

...my students are finding helpful. I prefer to test mastery of material via a role reversal in which I see if the student can teach me how to correctly solve problems and arrive at the correct answers. In my opinion, there is no better way to assess the depth and breadth of one's knowledge than to try to convey it to others. The study habits I hope to pass on to my students are ones...

...subjects that often gets overlooked, especially in math. I try to incorporate this into my tutoring because it really seems to help people connect with the concepts. In my free time I enjoy making things and exploring what others have made, whether in music, programming, writing, games, or art. I received my BA in Mathematics from Arizona State University, and subsequently attended post-bac programs at a handful of schools. This fall I begin graduate studies...

...most out of each session. I love tutoring because I know how important it is. I took tutoring sessions myself when I was in high school to prep for AP and ACT exams. Those sessions really helped me, and that is what inspired me to become a tutor and help others. I also have a huge passion for math. I have loved and excelled at it since elementary school. I'm doing a minor in mathematics...

...one of the largest reason students begin to struggle in a class is because they have fallen behind in some way and therefore lost confidence. My main goal as a tutor will be to restore their confidence in the subject by providing complete understanding of concepts as well as preparing them for the most complex examples so that they will not be caught off guard in the class. I also believe tutoring should be a...

...differential equations; preparation for the ACT, SAT, and AP tests; and topics in literature and history. My favorite subject to tutor is probably calculus because calculus really opens students' options for further exploration in math, science, economics, and pretty much every other STEM field. When it comes to tutoring, I believe that in order to give useful feedback to a student I need to observe and listen to them just as much they need to...

...ACT, editing college essays, or imparting some admission-worthy wisdom. Curriculum- A number of my former mentees/tutees have been accepted into preeminent undergraduate and graduate universities, including Stanford, Berkeley, Dartmouth, and more. And while I have worked with exceptionally naturally gifted students, I want to emphasize on creating a curriculum and plan that will suit your own individualized goals, whatever they may be. I take a personalized approach to tutoring, knowing that everyone learns differently and...

...West High School with a 36 on my ACT and 11 "5"s on various AP tests. While at West, I competed nationally in Academic Decathlon while setting state records in Economics and Mathematics. Now, I am pursuing a Math/Stats & Computer Science B.A. at Carleton College. I love learning and helping others learn, and I live for those "ah-ha!" moments, both the ones I experience myself and those I experience through others.

...who were struggling in their classes. Initially, I found this difficult; it was a challenge determining exactly where a student's understanding of a topic was faulty. Over time, however, I developed a keener sense for the hurdles that students sometimes face when learning, as well as the most efficient ways to overcome them. I also developed more patience and empathy through tutoring - I often remembered feeling the same confusion about a topic that my...

...in particular subjects I am passionate about. As a chemical engineering student at Vanderbilt University, I have always been passionate about learning math and science. I have also particularly excelled in these fields, perhaps due to my passion, and I managed to score a 790 on the math SAT and SAT II. I also took 5 AP Exams as a high school student, receiving 5s in Calculus BS, statistics, computer science, biology, and chemistry. At...

...I always want to be somewhere or do something that I have not yet achieved. I believe it is this drive that allows me to pursue my passions, both academically and socially, and to be successful in both. I find that my greatest happiness comes in the form of little victories such as a good grade on an exam, or making a friend laugh! Its because of this that I really slow down and try...

...tutoring for Computer Science and Math, in these subjects I immediately see the bigger picture, with the knowledge learned from them being able to apply to other subjects across the board. My teaching style is a 'Learn with the student' approach, breaking down problems to basic parts and building them up piece by piece, really understanding what and why we are doing each step of the process. I enjoy being able to connect the questions...

I am an undergraduate studying Computer Science at the University of Pennsylvania. There are many challenges when it comes to learning new things, and I understand how helpful it may be to have someone with more experience guide you. I have had experience tutoring students for the SAT/ACT in the past, as well as leading coding workshops at local libraries.

Hi! I am a master's student in computer science at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. I graduated from UMass with a bachelor's in computer science in 2020, and have been studying computer science since before college. I have prior experience as a tutor in my university's tutoring center for 3 years, and I am available to tutor basic math and most levels of computer science.
