Award-Winning MCAT Tutors in Oxnard, CA

...being applied to our everyday life. My understanding is that knowing the practicality of the information proves its importance to the students and makes them crave more. Furthermore, by asking simple analytical questions about the discussed topic I try to keep our session like a game; where my students act like young researchers coming up with their own analytic conclusions. Knowledge, enthusiasm, care, and patience are the important elements of tutoring, and I guarantee you...

...got my doctorate in the social sciences at Yale and have more than a decade of teaching experience. My areas of specialty are test prep, writing and grammar, psychology, analytical reasoning, and study skills. Few things are as exciting to me as watching a student grasp material for the first time. Helping students learn is a passion. For fun, I like to take beach walks with my two-year-old Cavachon (a mix of a King Charles...

Teaching is a calling, not a profession. So is tutoring. To be a great tutor, one must not only have the necessary credentials, but also the commitment to each student to ensure that the student has confidence in the subject taught and the ability to use the content in a meaningful way in academia, test taking, and often in life. I enjoy tutoring because I am able to explain complex theories...... My teaching philosophy consists of focusing on the individual needs of each student and ensuring that we spend our tutoring time wisely and effectively. Students must grasp key content to succeed on standardized tests. However, they must shine and expose their individuality on writing essays. Most importantly, students must communicate to succeed and that means clear expression verbally as well as in their writing. Reviewing has its place and, when necessary, we will re-visit lessons to ensure that students have grasped all of the content and then we will build on that comprehension by helping the student learn further content.

...when my students reach their academic goals. I believe that education is the key to success and I want to do my part to help others achieve their ambitions. As a tutor, I am very patient, prepared, and explain concepts in simple terms. When teaching, I show students how to do a problem, ask them to do one, and then have them teach it to me so that the concepts are reinforced. In my free...

...understand how the student learns so that I can help them develop effective study and homework strategies. Every person learns a little differently, and I believe that finding the method that works best for each individual is not only the best way to learn, but also the most fun way. I also believe in building my students' confidence in themselves and their own abilities and knowledge. One of the key ingredients to doing well on...

...health with either the CDC or the WHO. In terms of tutoring style, I like use examples and explanations, practice problems, short-term and long-term scheduling, and positive feedback to achieve results with my students. I find real-world examples are often useful in explaining difficult concepts and restoring interest in a subject. At times I too struggled with science and know how important it is to stay motivated in order to succeed. In my spare time,...

...and writing skills because I am an avid reader and writer. Writing is a valuable skill that will take you far in college and even when applying for jobs, internships, and graduate schools. I love to work with students at all levels and students with different learning styles. My goal is to not only help students master the subject, but also to help them identify which study tools work best for them. Outside of academics,...

...Not just simple comprehension, but in what manner the comprehension is reached. I enjoy breaking down problems into logical sub-units. First, the underlying equations (or axioms, or vocabulary, or processes) must be understood, preferably on an instinctual level, as it is easier to remember ideas when they make sense at a core level. Then these ideas are applied to the problem, in order to unlock the solution. Generally, when students are having trouble with a...

I am a graduate of Williams College with majors in both Chemistry and Political science. I also completed the pre-medical curriculum and plan on going to medical school. While at Williams I expanded my love of learning under professors who focused on teaching, engaging students and building relationships. I took advantage of the liberal arts course offerings and am comfortable tutoring in the core social sciences. Trained by Teach For America, I have taught 9th...

I recently moved to D.C. after graduating from Brown University with a B.S. in Chemical Biology. While in college, I had the opportunity to become a teaching assistant for both introductory and upper-level biochemistry courses, which I truly enjoyed. By using the insights I have gained through my experience as a teaching assistant, I would love to help students out by facilitating their learning process. I look forward to hearing from and meeting you!
