Joshua

Algebra Tutor • +24 Subjects

I have been tutoring for the last five years, and I am grateful that so many students have trusted me to help them achieve their goals. I received my Bachelor of Arts in English Literature from Oberlin College. I am currently studying at San Francisco State University, pursuing my Master's of Science in Physics. Between my undergraduate and graduate studies, I served in the United States Peace Corps to teach English in rural Panama. In San Francisco, I have been enjoying helping my students improve their test scores on the SAT. I have a strong connection to all the subjects I tutor. Because I am studying science, I am most passionate about physics and math, but I excel in every subject I teach. Throughout my life, I have had many wonderful opportunities that resulted from my excellent education. It is important to me that my students receive an excellent education to improve their quality of life. In my free time, I enjoy playing guitar and bass, writing fiction, and improving my chess game.

Algebra Tutor • +31 Subjects

I am a mechanical engineer with a masters degree. I enjoy teaching students of all levels. My approach towards teaching is to assist the students when they need help but let them make the mistake first so they can learn where they went wrong. I have traveled all around the world and feel my vast experience makes me a more relatable tutor. I also enjoy robotics which is a great way to combine math, engineering and science into an interesting yet rewarding subject.

Sean

College English Tutor • +17 Subjects

I recently graduated from UCLA and I am hoping to start law school next fall. Before I lose another three years of my life to academia, I hope to spend the time I have now to help students get the grades and marks they need to reach the schools of their dreams. I've been on the "treadmill" and I know how brutal the educational arena can be. Thus, I find great satisfaction in being able to help people who were in similar situations as myself. I have extensive experience in tutoring from two previous positions in which I taught in both a classroom setting and a one-on-one setting. Regarding the subjects I have taught- I am familiar with math all the way up to Algebra 2 (including SAT Math), I have helped many students prepare for the SAT and ACT, I am very familiar with the LSAT, and I can assist students with Literature and Writing as well. In my experience with tutoring, I have found that students can often learn best when the instruction is tailored to their needs. Each student has unique strengths and weaknesses, and I enjoy the challenge of figuring out how to play on those strengths and weaknesses in order to bring out the best performance from the student. Although law is still my passion, I've found that I truly enjoy teaching; the friendships I've developed and the lessons I've learned are invaluable, and within this next year, I hope to help as many students as possible. Outside of teaching, I like watching a good UFC fight now and then, and I am shamelessly addicted to the NBA and all its glory. I have an insatiable appetite for good music, films, art, and of course, food, and I love experiencing and learning about different cultures, religions, and views. Lastly, I think the cheeseburger is the greatest invention man has ever made, and I am forever in pursuit of the best burger in L.A.

Jose

Algebra Tutor • +30 Subjects

I graduated from San Diego State University in 2012 and earned my BA in International Security & Conflict Resolution with a minor in Islamic & Arabic Studies. I am currently working towards my teaching credential and am also enrolled in a TEFL certification program.Since graduating from San Diego State University, I have primarily been employed as a teacher’s assistant at a local charter school. At the charter school, I help middle school and high school students in a wide variety of subjects. I spend a significant amount of time tutoring students in math courses, including Pre-Algebra, Algebra, and Geometry. In addition, I grade and review assignments which allows me to better identify areas for improvement and tailor my tutoring approach to fit the student’s needs. I have a noted ability to build rapport with students and am genuinely interested in seeing them improve and excel.As a tutor, my teaching style is adaptive yet straightforward. In general, we review the concepts and work through practice problems together. How I explain the concepts and the examples I use varies depending on the student’s interests and learning style. Throughout the process, I ensure the student comprehends the concepts by having them teach it back to me.In my spare time, I like to exercise, keep up with global affairs, read articles about mass transit, and travel. I have visited about 30 countries and credit the experiences with my passion for learning and teaching.

AP Comparative Government and Politics Tutor • +25 Subjects

I attended Jesuit College Preparatory School of Dallas for high school where I graduated with honors and then moved out to California to attend Loyola Marymount University to continue what the Jesuits like to refer to as "Cura Personalis" or "Education of the Whole Person." At LMU I majored in English Literature, but I also had the opportunity to engage in creative writing of all types and flavors including but not limited to poetry, fictional prose, playwriting, and various forms of journalism. I minored in Archaeology, which blended my love of history with my passion for anthropology. I acted as the Assistant Curator at LMU's on campus museum, which grew during my tenure by 60% in terms of donations and acquisitions. As the Curator I had the opportunity to give lectures and tutor college-aged students in history, art, architecture, and historical preservation. I graduated Loyola Marymount University with honors, and decided to attend Southwestern Law School. At Southwestern, I specialized in criminal law, labor law, civil procedure, and constitutional law. I graduated Southwestern, attained my Juris Doctor, and sat for the California Bar Exam in July. Above all things, I prize academic prowess and the desire to learn and master more. As such, I chose a career in which I know I can act as a constant student and a constant teacher. Such a level of dedication is required, in fact, because the law is fluid and in a constant state of flux.I tutor in history, English literature of all types (writing, reading comprehension, analytical thinking), government, and politics. Throughout my educational and professional career I have been regarded as an exceptional writer. I have actually had the opportunity to edit many publications which have appeared in print as well as online. As such, I am adept at aiding students in how to be their own editors and how to see the gaps in their writing and where they need improvement. My favorite subject to tutor is history. I especially love world history.My hobbies include keeping physically active. I love to play basketball and beach volleyball. I enjoy playing golf, but I'm not very good. Golf is an activity which I picked up in my adult life. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it. I also enjoy watching movies, reading good books, hiking, cooking, and generally keeping an open mind. I constantly find new activities that I enjoy.

Algebra Tutor • +40 Subjects

I graduated from UC Berkeley in 2013 with a degree in Molecular and Cellular Biology. I am currently enrolled in Master's of Science in Medical Health Sciences at Touro University - California. Simultaneously, I am applying for medical school right now, and hopefully, I will be enrolled in a medical school by August of 2016.I started tutoring in high school. Math always came natural to me, but I also understood the struggles of understanding math. Along with math, Physics and Biology have always been my forte. I think physics helps us understand how the universe functions in our day to day lives. Something as simple as pushing the door, driving a car at a certain speed, or playing with yo-yo could be explained using physics. I also love biology. Once you understand the gist of biological processes, which occur daily, you can't help but to marvel at its precision.My teaching philosophy is practice makes near-perfect. I believe that with practice and repetition with the right strategies, anybody can master the subjects I will be teaching. Some may need more practice than others. And everybody has their own strengths and weakness, but that should not define individual's potential.Besides academics, music is my stress-reliever. I thoroughly enjoy playing guitar and learning new instruments. These days, I have been practicing harmonica. My favorite artists/bands include John Mayer, Jason Mraz, and Maroon5. Also, I recently started to get into cooking. I first started cooking because I enjoyed watching cooking shows. I tried few recipes, and I wanted to get better at it. Moreover, cooking food for other people gives me joy.

My greatest strength is my ability to understand technical concepts and translate them into terms that are easy to understand and manipulate. I have a degree in marketing management but spent several years as a senior technician in both nuclear power and nuclear waste remediation. When not studying for the healthcare degree that I'm pursuing, I am learning to paint, snowboard, golf, and am also learning to play the guitar. I just graduated from the professional program at Second City which provides invaluable skills in adapting to different students' styles and for keeping things light and fun; two things which math is not famous for.
