If my time as a student, teacher, and mentor has taught me anything over the years, it is that simply checking the boxes and getting the right answer is not success.

Tito

ACT Writing Tutor • +25 Subjects

I graduated from the University of Southern California in May 2014 with a B.S in Health Promotion and Disease Prevention and a minor in Law and Society. I am able to tutor in multiple science subjects, standardized tests (SAT, ACT) and social sciences (public health, political science). I would be happy to help with any age. I help students by getting to know their background and understanding of the subject and helping them build upon that knowledge base through the sessions.

Ben

ACT Prep Tutor • +49 Subjects

I worked for UCSB's CLAS (Campus Learning Assistance Services) as an ACE Tutor/Writing Lab Drop-in Tutor. I tutored university students of all ages, including graduate students. In the ACE program, worked with first-year EOP (Educational Opportunities Program) students to encourage them in their writing and develop their own voices within their composition. Also, I provided additional peer support during the revision process and helped students to focus on the importance of organization and structure within an essay.When I was placed in the ACE program my first year of work, and I challenged first-year EOP (Educational Opportunities Program) students to develop their own voices within their composition. As a drop-in writing tutor, I provided constructive peer support during the revision process, drawing the students' attentions to the importance of structure and organization over grammar.My philosophy on writing and improving writing is that it's a process. I can't stress that enough. Writing goes beyond just having correct grammar and the ability to utilize an exhaustive vocabulary; it is a way of solidifying your thoughts as a small contribution to the world of education and, perhaps, the world at large. I am willing to invest the amount of time needed to polishing developing writers and students so that they come away with more than just a corrected essay or some more grammar knowledge; I am seeking to help them hear their own voice in their writing and bring that with them to the next step in their careers.I believe I'm uncommonly well-suited for being an English tutor because I've come from a place of not really being able to write. I got a C my first quarter of English in high school, and since then, I've averaged an A- in my college English courses. I have a personal investment in helping people with a desire to further their command of the language and a wish to hear their own voice come through in their writing, and I will help however I can to that end.If you have any questions at all, please feel free to contact me!

I will return to Loyola Marymount to work on a second Master's degree in the Fall.I have been in the classroom for almost four years teaching social studies, religion, and English to grades 5 - 12. I have experience at both the high school and middle school levels. I also was previously a coach for the Catholic School's Junior High Academic Decathlon for multiple subjects. I regularly hold tutoring for my students have much experience tutoring a variety of subjects at the middle school level.I am in education because it is a constantly changing field where one can always work on improving one's teaching. I enjoy the challenges of teaching and tutoring because it means that no two days are ever the same. In addition, I enjoy using research based methods in education. I also believe in empowering students to reach their goals.I enjoy cooking on my free time, researching topics in Junior High Academic Decathlon, and keeping up with my friends.

Naama

ACT English Tutor • +38 Subjects

I'm a New York transplant to LA, and a freelance composer and musician by nature. I am an artist and a teacher-- these are my two passions! I'm also a translator, linguistics nerd, avid reader, and fabulous teacher. I went to NYU and studied Linguistics, and am continuing my studies for an Applied Linguistics Masters here in California.I have been teaching and tutoring for many years, since I started college. I've done private SAT Prep tutoring both here and in New York, as well as prep for other standardized tests such as the ISEE, SSAT, and HSPT. I also teach a bi-weekly SAT Prep course in Glendale, and an advanced Competition Math class for two age groups (6-8 and 9-12). It's a lot of fun! I've always found math pretty neat and like to get students interested in it too!I love to travel and have been fortunate enough to do a lot of it during my quarter-century on this planetRussia, all over Europe, the Middle East, Venezuela, Mexico, India, and pretty much every state in this country. You only live once, and I really do learn something new every day.Of all the jobs I've had while pursuing music and art, I've found that teaching is the one in which I have the most to offer and that gives me the most in return. I believe that confidence is the largest factor in success at anything, and preparation leads to confidence. This applies to the SAT test; it applies to performing a concert; it is universal. I want to help build confidence in others, too.

Colin

ACT Math Tutor • +31 Subjects

I obtained a degree in business administration at Cal State Long Beach, developing and applying math as fundamental as arithmetic in finance, as well as the complex derivatives used in economics. I am currently working on getting my teaching credential in Fundamental Math at Sacramento State. I do have a background in teaching, tutoring, subbing, and coaching. I am experienced in test prep, homework help, arithmetic, conversions, elementary and advanced English, but my favorite subjects to tutor are essay editing, writing or verbal skills, advanced mathematics or science. I like to bring enthusiasm to my lessons, as well as a variety of methods to help provide students with understanding. If you are having trouble with the explanations from the teachers, I can help! Oftentimes, we understand better if we hear things in a different way. Above all else, tutoring should never be a stressful experience. In my free time, I like to swim, hike, climb, write, cook, watch, and play games of all kinds.
