I am a Returned Peace Corps Education Volunteer, current tutor and substitute teacher, and future classroom teacher that loves to teach, coach, and help others accomplish anything!

I typically start a tutoring relationship by building a layer of...

...is by learning along with them. I have learned (or relearned) a lot of subject matter while working as a teacher, and this has helped me relate to students the best by understanding the learning process they are going through.

...situation I may find myself in, always looking for elegant and creative solutions to problems.

Hi! I'm David, and I'm currently studying Physics and Economics at UC Berkeley. I'm originally from Minnesota, and I enjoy watching and discussing everything related to science fiction. I'm a pretty laid back person who prefers to suggest different perspectives and let the student find his or her way to the solution through a "consider this" approach. Let me know if I can be of service!

I am dedicated to helping students learn and understand new and challenging material, and I have patience to ensure...

Hello :) I'm a pre-nursing student with a Bachelor's Degree in English! I graduated summa cum laude and was fortunate enough to help publish an academic paper with a professor, which led to us both receiving a work grant. I like to think I can learn pretty much anything, aside from Organic Chemistry :) (and you know, maybe if I actually took the class...haha).

I've been a camp counselor, reading and writing tutor, and teaching assistant for many years and I'm here to help students reach their full potential. Working with people, especially children and teenagers, is my passion, and I am looking forward to all of the opportunities I will have to connect with, instruct, and learn from students.
