Award-Winning Pre-Calculus Tutors serving San Diego, CA

...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 to develop problem solving skills as well as fundamental principles of logic. These skills have helped me through various subjects like statistics and general chemistry. I like to...

...learn can be taught. Since college I played poker professionally and I am presently a portfolio manager in the stock market. My life has always centered around the world of mathematics, efficiency, and logic. In second grade, at my elementary school, I was asked to tutor some of the 5th graders in math. Weeks later they skipped me a grade. By 13 years old I taught myself Euclidean Geometry, Calculus at 16. During the summer...

...and helping them learn, which has helped me to identify my future career path of eventually becoming a professor. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Math, Physics, and Biology as I find these subjects fascinating both in and out of the classroom. My tutoring style involves breaking complex subjects down into smaller fractions and slowly building up to the whole concept, which is quite effective. Additionally, I try...

...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 time possible for them. Be it more practice, or more in-depth explanation of the material, I try several different methods of tutoring to see what clicks with each...

...medical school and have gained acceptance. Prior to graduating, I have tutored at a private tutoring company near UC Davis for 2 years. Through this experience, I proven effectiveness in teaching subjects ranging from Elementary math and Common core, to Algebra and Pre-Calculus, as well as Chemistry, Biology, Reading, and Writing. Out of these subjects, I believe that helping students build a strong foundation in Math and Science are most important. When tutoring, I show...

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!

...Math and Science. My tutoring philosophy is not only to help students solve a problem but also to help them understand the thought process of how a certain method is chosen to solve a problem. Higher levels of math and science are built based on their fundamental concepts. Therefore, a solid understanding of these basic concepts is very important as students move forward into more advanced courses. Showing students steps to solve a problem is...

...with difficult math concepts. I find tutoring very rewarding and love to see students grow and develop their skills with my help. I have learned in high school that hard work always pays off, and the same type of effort in the classroom is necessary for success throughout and beyond school. If you do not challenge yourself you will never get better, and that is how I would describe my tutoring style. I start out...

...I am confident that I would be a great addition to your team. During my 6-year tenure as Professor of Chemistry and Chemistry Area Coordinator at Lane College, I taught Undergraduate Research in Chemistry, General Chemistry, Physical Chemistry, Organic Chemistry; lecture and lab. I set up the Chemistry labs and introduced 19 new experiments for undergraduate research in chemistry. To date, chemistry students who have benefitted from undergraduate research supported by the grant include 2...

...new things and mastering new concepts and skills, my sense of contentment is higher, I feel accomplished, and I have a healthier sense of self-worth. What I want more than anything is to impart that sense of fulfillment to others. Whether I am teaching in a classroom, tutoring difficult concepts, showing my daughter how to tie her shoes, or just interacting with those in my daily life, I live for those "ah-ha!" moments when a...

...I tutored junior high, high school, and college students in math. I was a teacher's assistant in a junior high math class as well as a high school math class. My passion is teaching students math. In the Fall I will be going to get my Master's in Education and my Teaching Credential to teach math at the junior high and high school levels. I also love sports! I played four years of collegiate soccer...

...at will. Not only do I enjoy conveying mathematics to students, but I am also interested in how mathematics is interpreted. Since tutoring frees students from concerns about how they are perceived by their peers, it can provide a clearer understanding of how they interpret the mathematics that is presented to them. This creates the opportunity for more effective instruction. When I'm not in the world of mathematics, I'm hiking in the wilderness, or concentrating...

...enjoy teaching all subjects, but I am most passionate about topics relating to biology, chemistry, and biochemistry. As a tutor, I focus on making the material approachable and relatable for students--after all, I believe that the most important takeaway from any tutoring session is the desire to learn more! Balance is an important part of life and, for that reason, neuroscience, tennis, photography, reading and pets are all integral parts of my life.

...using thin-layer chromatography. I left Florida to start a Masters Degree program at the University of Georgia, working with molecular biology techniques to attempt to identify the gene of interest in a cerebellar abiotrophy in pure-bred dogs. While I did that, I completed training as an Emergency Medical Technician and took coursework in Wilderness Search and Rescue at the University of West Georgia. I started a dual degree in veterinary medicine and graduate school, earning...

...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 minds...
