Award-Winning Math Tutors for Students in Santee, CA

...the valuable and rewarding experience of teaching. After graduation, I decided to teach English abroad in Hanoi, Vietnam. I lived there for a year teaching English as a Second Language (ESL) to a wide range of classes from Fundamentals for pre-kindergarteners to Business English for adults. During this time, I began tutoring college level students in Speaking, Listening, Reading or Writing with a specific topic focus. I also have experience teaching the Language Arts, Grammar,...

...Pre-Algebra through Pre-Calculus, even Life Science, and helping one student organize and prepare a book report presentation. While I have honestly loved them all, I am most passionate about Pre-Calculus and Trigonometry, and I actually taught two classes in that material during my internship. Since it is such a departure from the type of mathematics students are used to before they get to that level, I really loved serving as their guide to open their...

...library in various subjects with an emphasis on Math and English. Not surprisingly, my favorite subject to tutor is math. To many people, math is just a jumble of numbers and an exercise of memorization. I was fortunate enough to be able to view math as a puzzle a series of steps that solves a mystery. As I have continued my studies in math, I have come to believe it is essential as it helps...

...Marcos. Since completing the credential program in 2008, I have worked as a high school science teacher at a large private high school in the area. In the six years that I have been teaching, I've had the opportunity to teach a variety of courses including: General Biology, Chemistry, AP Environmental Science, Marine Biology, and Honors Anatomy and Physiology. For the past three years, my focus has been on the latter three courses previously mentioned....

...I enjoy helping people learn, because I think it is how we connect and evolve as people. My belief is that all students have different capacities of learning as well as different approaches to achieve comprehension of study material. As a tutor, I find that I try to find and optimize a student's preferred approach to learning, as it is usually the one that helps a student learn the most in the fastest amount of...

...3rd year student at UC San Diego studying for my B.S. in Computer Engineering. I first started teaching /tutoring before I finished my last year of high school at a speech and debate summer camp where I was an assistant instructor. I later taught my own courses at that same camp the following year. Outside of tutoring, I really enjoy following and playing basketball, and I am currently working on coding my own game!

...school math. I first talk to my students with one example and covering the motivations behind the techniques. I try to pick examples that can be greatly extended over the course of the semester as the knowledge base expands.When I am teaching a course, I often give questions to excite the students about the material and to get them thinking. The problems are challenging but carefully chosen to suit the level of the course and...

...Colorado at Boulder in Finance and Communication, and earn my Masters from National University for Teaching. My experiences range from tutoring kids in their homes and at school, to teaching in an orphanage in Cambodia. Through all of my experiences, I have learned the three keys to success are to understand how the students learns (kinesthetic, visual, auditory), make the information relevant to their lives allowing for personal connection to the material, and support the...

I am a Structural Engineering graduate from UCSD. I specialize in tutoring Math, Science, and test prep (SAT, AP, etc.), though I feel confident tutoring in a wide-range of subject areas. Some of my hobbies include sports (football and soccer) and video games. I look forward to working with you!

...college with the intention of transferring to a different 4 year university. I have been tutoring math, science, and test preparation for 4 years for students of all ages. I am strongest in high level math, which is my favorite subject to tutor as well. My teaching style involves guiding the student through exercises instead of just showing them how to complete them. This way, they are more engaged in the tutoring session and are...

...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 have some one-on-one help. I like to have fun with whatever I do, but more...

I am a Mathematics major at California State University, San Marcos; planning to continue my education in hope of one day teaching math at the college level. I have always found great joy in sharing my passion for math and helping students understand difficult concepts. In my free time, you can find me playing soccer, reading and spending time with friends.

...complete picture. It's therefore always important to have a solid grasp of the basics - to understand the previous steps - before learning each new topic. My approach to tutoring thus focuses less on memorizing formulas and more on understanding why these work and how you can arrive at them yourself. I have always enjoyed being able to help other people and my somewhat unique outlook on mathematics, coupled with my experienced mathematics background, have...

...specialize in mathematics. However, I have been an Instructional Assistant for the last five years with the Sweetwater Union School District where I cover a great range of subjects. I am a happily married family man with values and respect for kids. I currently work with middle and high school Special Education students doing math support.

The principles of the program are that children can learn through nontraditional measures such as technology, play, and self-expression. All of the communities involved were bilingual communities such as the Spanish immersion program in South County and the Kumeyaay native people of East County. I tutored children K-8 in all subjects, especially English, Grammar, Reading, Writing, problem solving, storytelling,...

...the gateway to the upper level math classes. I try to show the students that there is math all around them and show them how it can relate to their daily lives. When I teach and tutor, I try to make it fun and encourage them. My outside interests are photography, hiking and traveling. These interests eventually took me to Africa where I started my teaching and spent 7 1/2 years. During that time I...

...easy to navigate to help students succeed. I love to tutor because it is a way to use my strengths to help others. I also highly relate to students because I am still a student.
