Award-Winning Social studies Tutors in Long Beach, CA

I struggled with education in my early years. After learning different methods, approaches, and understandings, I excelled in the classroom. My theory is that everyone can understand the "problem"; it's just a matter of visualizing the solution. I enjoy working with learning disorders and challenges. I look forward to meeting you and your student.

...graduate with a Bachelor's in Nutrition and a minor in Spanish from Point Loma Nazarene University in San Diego where I competed on the tennis team for four years.

...I have extensive experience writing in a variety of styles and to a wide-ranging set of audiences. I also teach Middle School Math, Pre-Algebra, Algebra I, and Geometry.

...much from my students as they have learned from me. Being involved in the medical field, I also know that I will never stop being a student and thus can relate to the struggles we all face when learning new things. I believe that the one-on-one system of tutoring is the best way to learn because personalized attention is so important, but majorly lacking in education today. I have a passion for Chemistry and Math,...

...elementary to the college level, for the past four years. I primarily tutor subjects relating to the Humanities, such as Ancient Languages, History, and English Composition.

My name is Raymond, and I recently graduated from Stanford University with dual degrees in Economics and Film Studies. I started working with Varsity Tutors as a freshman in college, and I have been with the company ever since. The favorite part of my job as a tutor is giving students the confidence to master subjects they previously struggled with or found difficult.

For me, education is about building a foundation. The stronger the foundation, the more likely a person is to continue striving to learn long after graduating from school. My goal is to instill in my students an enthusiasm and love for learning by building up their confidence until they're eager to continuously seek knowledge in all facets of life.

...students about the skills and strategies of the sport every year. My favorite subjects to tutor are standardized test preparation and writing. I believe that great test takers are made, not born. Anyone can improve your SAT or LSAT score with the right practice and guidance.
