...her daughter. I have always been top of my class in subjects related to reading and writing, and I was flattered and happy to have my first paying job.

...concepts as I did being taught. These frequent study sessions helped me learn ways to become much more effective as a tutor.

Although the subject matter of the courses will be much different, I believe...

...athletics magazines, wrote for a dorky hip hop blog for five years, dabbled in short fiction, and have been focusing most of my recent efforts on stand-up comedy (I have ten minutes of literary jokes and I'll bite my thumb at anyone who says they're too niche). In any pursuit, whether it be as a student-athlete or as an artist, I take pride in meticulously refining my craft and helping others improve and reach their...

...when I attended graduate school. I have tutored and taught several undergraduate chemistry courses, including: general chemistry, organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry, and high school chemistry. I absolutely love teaching students. I most enjoyed when students understood the concepts and could apply them to new problems. I believe it is most important for students to understand the concepts, rather than memorize specific formulas, reactions, or mechanisms. By learning the concepts, you can apply the concepts to...

...complete their freshman and sophomore years of high school at the same time. I was also a general tutor for the whole school after hours. I learned a great deal about the nuances of working with the students, their families, and the resources that were available to them. I also understand the different types of student learning. There is so much to keep track of and take care of when it comes to a child's...

...to popular beliefs about bio majors, my most effective study technique is to avoid memorization whenever I can. I always aim for long retention of information--yes, I am against cramming! Of course, there are numerous occasions where memorization is unavoidable. In those cases, we will work together as a team to find a way that suits YOU best to make it as easy (and fun) as possible. I always try to gain a deep understanding...

I embrace a student centered approach to student learning. This means that I let the student lead the discussion of a particular problem. I have been teaching for 6 years at the high school level, having come off a BS in Math with a minor in Physics from UC Merced(go bobcats).

Over the last 20 years, I have seen all types of classes, teachers, exams, and homework. I've been the student, the tutor, the teacher, and the professor. Whatever it is that you need to get ready for, I will take the time to make sure you can get to where you want to be!

I have tutored in both individualized and group settings for various purposes, including SAT test prep, supplemental learning, and as a primary teaching resource. To that end, I have endeavored to truly understand my students on a personal level to make sure that the way I am tutoring them is the best way for them to learn. I have constructed lesson plans for both a single person and an entire 30 student classroom.

Hello! I am an engineer by training, who is looking to help young people cultivate love and interest for math and science!
