...in the BA/MA program which means I am earning my BA in economics and MA in Finance simultaneously over four years. Though I can tutor almost any subject, math and statistics are definitely my favorites. I live to use applied stats in my work with quantitative finance. I am currently writing a stock trading algorithm in my free time with which I hope to launch my career after I complete my education. In my free...

...and though my teaching career so far tilts toward examining narratives in context, I have unusual added experience in helping to "test the new tests" students face as prospective candidates for undergraduate and graduate-level institutions. I have an extensive history of sustained one-on-one engagement with students preparing dissertations, theses, semester-long projects and so forth, and am very comfortable with working with a single student over a longer period as they embark on other, similarly long-term...

I am an educator with 7 years of experience, mainly in environmental education in informal learning spaces. I studied environmental biology and visual arts for my undergraduate degree, and am going to be starting a Master's program in plant biology and conservation this upcoming fall. My professional experience with education is mainly with students from elementary school to high school, but I also informally tutored throughout my time in college.

...My goal is to help students view learning as a positive experience! When students learn with me, they usually find that it is a very relaxed, hands-on, and visual process. I excel at tutoring biological subjects, but I also really enjoy helping students improve their writing and standardized testing skills. Every student is different, and so I firmly believe that studying and learning habits should be tailored to each person. I make it a goal...

...same material as the MCAT, and feel I could prepare others as well for these difficult (and stressful!) tests. During my time at Colorado College I also had the amazing opportunity to study abroad in Costa Rica, where I was able to put nine years of Spanish education to practice. If you are looking for help with Spanish grammar, comprehension, or speaking-ability I can use my own command of the language to get you to...

...flexibility to adapt to each student and the power to supplement a student's education with perspectives from other fields. My experience in leadership development, as president of my residential college, also allows me to guide students not only as academics, but also as career- and goal-oriented individuals.

...to visit the patients. She is a "love therapy" dog and greatly in demand. I love to fish, both deep sea and freshwater and any time spent on or near the water is perfection. I have painted children's furniture for years and all my nieces and nephews and children of friends can count on having one of my pieces for their own. I also write stories and poetry for personal pleasure and as gifts to...

...comprehension, and test prep so that I can bring my passion for learning to students who aren't getting the help they need in the classroom. I have experience tutoring students from 13 to college age in math and science, and I'm looking forward to expanding my subject with new students in social studies, reading, and test prep. I am particularly interested in helping high school students prepare for AP tests, many of which I have...

...see the student holistically, to be sensitive to the emotional side as well as the intellectual. The student must feel safe, which means being genuinely respected and heard by the tutor. In sum, a good tutor should embody humor, humanity, and humility. In terms of technique, I employ the Socratic method, which entails asking questions to find the student's current level and then gently guiding them along from that point. I would love to get...

...learning needs to be student centered and that students need to be equal partners in the learning process. My role involves using my expertise to put the necessary resources in the hands of the students or more likely to be sure that my students are well equipped to find and evaluate the resources they need to answer their questions. Just like IBM, I want to help develop my students' thinking skills and acquisition of knowledge....

My credentials include being a CPA with a Juris Doctor, Master of Accountancy, and Bachelor of Science in Business.

I admire truth and transparency.

I have extensive experience tutoring family and friends at the middle school, high school, and college level in just about every topic, especially math and science courses.

...a tutor is to enable students to understand and learn the subjects of chemistry, mathematics, biology, and physics. I achieve this by using an interactive step by step approach to learning, working with the student, answering questions as we go along, rather than just lecturing. This interactive step by step approach works well for learning how to do calculations and understanding concepts. My qualifications include two Bachelor of Science Degrees from Arizona State University and...

...college I began to love tutoring and making light bulbs go off in students mathematical learning. I was a full time high school math teacher in Northern California for two years, but came to realise that I missed the individual attention that tutoring gives. Math is not an easy subject for many individuals, and with the new common core standards many students are seeing their math brains being stretched in multiple ways. I aim to...
