Award-Winning Calculus Tutors serving Elk Grove, CA

...the University of California, Davis. I believe the most important quality in a tutor is patience. Everyone is capable of being great at math, but math is a very difficult and abstract topic, and the only sure path to success is through continuous effort. A tutor must have the patience to move through the subject at the student's own pace. Mathematics is important not just because of its endless application and its role as the...

...at CSU Sacramento starting in Spring 2016. I studied Computer Science and Engineering for three years at Sierra College, taking math, science, and computer classes for the duration. Teaching is something that comes pretty easily to me - I've been a tutor for many people before, including friends, family, and classmates. Currently I am able to tutor in math, but soon I will be expanding that to include Computer Science, Chemistry, and Physics. My students...

...subject to tutor is Algebra 1. I like Algebra 1 because that is the beginning of solving equations and I believe that a solid understanding of Algebra 1 is very important for students. My tutoring style is patient and enthusiastic. I enjoy math and I want my students to enjoy it too! My teaching philosophy is you cannot build without tools. In math you need to add every tool to your toolbox that you can...

...years; I love math and I love teaching! I totally get it: for most people, the end-goal of studying math isn't to become a mathematician or to fall deeply in love with division and derivatives. For most people, math is just a tool that they need to use (or study) to achieve a goal (becoming a doctor) or to accomplish a task (figuring out how much paint you need to paint that funny shaped room)....

...Mathnasium: The Math Learning Center, where I've been for the past year and a half. I've also tutored German privately and had 9 years working in church youth programs.

I am a future medical student and recent engineering graduate, and I look forward to working with students in math and science.... During a first session, I would talk with the student about their academic goals, and also discuss learning strategies that have worked well for them in the past.... I like to focus on big picture objectives. I believe it is more important to understand the foundations of a process and the overarching idea, rather...

...now. See photo.) You just need to break down the problems, recognize patterns, and apply the concepts. So if you're just required to take a math course and you're sick of having a panic attack every time you look at a problem, or if you're in a STEM program and you are constantly worried that you don't belong there, I can help. I can also help if you just need to review or clarify a...

...Statistics, and I have worked in a variety of roles at big companies as a data analyst, and statistician. My goal is to provide students with top quality tutoring by being attentive to their needs, and working as a team towards finding solutions. My teaching philosophy is to identify and strengthen areas of weakness, and encourage dedication to learning math because I firmly believe anyone can learn math! My hobbies are running, writing short stories,...

...of math and writing through my participation as an assistant teacher with the Visions 2000 Math & Reading Academy. For five summers I worked with far below and below basic students to get them back up to speed in time for the coming school year. Additionally, while attending USC I worked with inner-city children to pass on my engineering knowledge with the Iridescent Learning program. There I designed lesson plans that would explore the wonders...

...Pharmaceutical Chemistry B.S. and a Psychology B.A. from the University of California - Davis.

I believe math can and should be fun to learn. Whether it's terrible math jokes, bad math raps, or a video online that demonstrates the Pythagorean Theorem using Star Wars characters, it's always an interesting time learning from me!

...I endeavor to interest students in any topic (but especially math) by giving them a sense of a larger context. In particular, I love to bring college-level math concepts to students in a way anyone can understand, which often demonstrates WHY the math they're doing matters. It also shows that math can be just plain cool, which I don't think our curricula prioritize enough. Besides teaching, I enjoy practicing parkour and tricking (acrobatic martial arts),...

...Temple University, and I am passionate about math. In fact, to say I am passionate is something of an understatement. Math is the most beautiful thing in the universe, and I want open everybody's eyes to this deep and wonderful truth. Math is something to be enjoyed. I believe that while knowing the formulas and procedures is important, memorizing mathematical formulas without appreciating the concepts is akin to memorizing the lines of a Shakespeare play...
