Award-Winning German Tutors in San Diego, CA

...Civil Engineering from San Diego State. I've always loved puzzles and problem solving, so naturally math and science have always been my strong suits. As a matter of fact, Calculus was, and still is, my favorite subject. As an Engineer I am also well grounded in Physics and Chemistry. I've always been a good test-taker and I know what it takes to get the grades. I know that it can make a huge difference to...

...students flourish and become more and more confident in the skills they were acquiring. For me, this was the ultimate compliment in that I was indeed making a difference.

I also have an interest in gardening and hope that one day I can get all of...

I am a recent graduate from San Diego State with a degree in Environmental Engineering. I really enjoy inspiring kids. I've always had great teachers and want to help kids that may have not the same opportunities as me. When not involved in academic pursuits, I love traveling and playing rugby....

I especially especially enjoy helping students with test...

...I enjoyed some experience speaking with locals while my half-brother lived in Stuttgart(Southern Germany, northwest of Munich), home to both Mercedes and Porsche! I believe that everyone learns differently, so I try get my students to relate to their material in whatever way works best for them. Speaking a different language is one of the most rewarding skills a person can learn and opening up those doors is, to me, equally rewarding. My personal hobbies...

...and consists of working with friends and fellow students to help them grasp certain concepts. In this context, I have tutored Spanish and some history.

...summers at the French village and one at the Spanish village.

...(he's prepping for the AP Chemistry exam in the spring). I've taught college level Chemistry and also taught Chemistry to lawyers for trials regarding patents. I have connections to many universities in California and across the country. I learned German by living there for three years and continued studying it for three years after I returned (I'm kind of a language nut). Not everyone loves Chemistry, but I do, and I want others to also....

...have worked for many after school programs where I was a mentor, a tutor, and a teacher. These organizations include Big Brothers Big Sisters and Girls Incorporated of Orange County. As a very compassionate and intuitive person, I tend to know exactly what a person needs to hear in order to feel inspired and encouraged. I intend to bring this skill to every student. Hopefully, I can brighten their will to learn to match mine.
