...PA. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics there and went on to develop my love for exploring by moving to Los Angeles shortly afterward. While in Southern California, I worked hard to build up my experience by doing private tutoring, working at after school institutes and substitute teaching. I eventually received my teaching credential in Secondary Education with an emphasis in Mathematics and taught at a charter school for 3 fulfilling years. I...

...planning to become an architect. I tutor Psychology, Writing, Essay Editing, Spanish (most levels), and English. I am a really big fan of flash cards for key terms (especially with Psychology!) and a big part of my philosophy on tutoring is helping to build my students' confidence in a subject. I feel that once you are sure of yourself, the rest comes after, and it is usually sooner than you had originally anticipated. My favorite...

...you to not only achieve your immediate goals (passing a class, test, etc), but also foster a deeper understanding of the subject matter that will help you into the future. I'm certified to teach from kindergarten to grade 12.

...that he/she can feel confident in the subject and in himself/herself before we move on. I strive to create an environment that is both comfortable and productive, and I am not afraid to use technology and humor to help a student learn and retain new material. In my free time, I like to walk around the city in search of street fairs (and free food), watch sitcoms in foreign languages, experiment with baking and cooking,...

...with me in my own language and, perhaps more importantly, to gain an appreciation for another language and culture. I strive to promote cross-cultural awareness and appreciation. As a native of Mexico, I try to bring as much of my culture into the learning process as possible. I believe that effective tutors understand what knowledge their students already have, and find a way to tap into that knowledge and build upon it. The results I...

...II Math level 1 and 2, and AMC 12. It goes without saying that in order to excel in these exams, the student must possess a solid foundation in Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, and Pre-Calculus. But first and foremost, it is important that each student identifies the reason that he or she is studying for. Once that goal is vividly envisioned by the student, he or she will find enjoyment and satisfaction in understanding and applying...

I have been studying language since age 11, and I have never stopped trying to master new languages. Besides tutoring, I am a classical musician, a singer, and a composer; I perform all around the world. I have experience working with all age groups and I first started tutoring at age 15. I am...

...on proper training and subject knowledge. In this respect, my teaching has been enriched by graduate study (M.A., M.Phil, Medieval European History), including intensive study of both history and languages, including German, Latin, French, and Spanish, which I speak fluently. Furthermore, my teaching has been shaped by many years of working as a high-school history/social studies teacher. I have taught Global History, and several electives like Political Philosophy, Modern Latin America, Strategic Thinking, and Religion....

...the past five years. When it comes to tutoring and teaching, I believe that attentiveness is extremely important. With my students, I always make a conscious effort to closely monitor their strengths, weaknesses, mistakes, and progress. By knowing your student, it allows the teacher to effectively form a curriculum, as well as monitor progress in an efficient and effective manner. I love teaching, and I love seeing the improvement and progress of my students just...
