I received my dual bachelor’s degrees at the University of Southern California in Neurosciences and Biological Sciences. Since graduation, I have worked for two years at a USC research institute; in that time, I also developed a love for teaching. In the course of discovering this affinity, I have taught programs from the Neighborhood Academic Initiative at USC for underserved high schoolers to my most recent employment at Kaplan, Inc. Although I have extensive experience in managing and working in a classroom, I prefer to work with students one-on-one; it is more rewarding for both of us to discover strengths and weaknesses, find how our teaching and learning styles match, and see improvement. The time I have spent taking and tutoring students for standardized tests has only refined my understanding of what students need and have the most trouble with. Although I enjoy and have experience teaching a vast array of subjects (especially during my time at a graduation lab at Irving High School), I am especially drawn to the sciences, math and English. The love for the former two stems from years of education and interest in the sciences, and the latter harks even further back to my addiction to reading that I acquired in elementary school. I am a voracious reader, especially science fiction and fantasy, and many have told me that my affection for the language is infectious! My hobbies outside devouring literary delicacies include singing, playing the guitar, basketball, running, boxing and hiking.

My name is Ayana Kelly and I am a recent graduate of the Claremont Colleges in Los Angeles, CA. During my undergraduate experience, I was able to thrive at a highly ranked university with a rigorous course load. Furthermore, I worked for a tutoring company where I was able to discover my passion for helping other students to overcome obstacles. I found the student's personal growth to be truly inspirational. I'd love to leverage my knowledge and skill set to help students to have the confidence to excel academically and beyond.

I am an undergraduate at Tulane University in New Orleans, but will be spending next year abroad at the London School of Economics. I was born here in San Francisco, and I have lived in this amazing city ever since. I???ve been tutoring for several years in a variety of subjects: from reading and writing for ESL (English as a second language) students, to Calculus and Economics, and for a variety of ages: from kindergarteners to my peers at college. Math has definitely been my favorite subject to tutor; I find joy in helping people who are struggling get to a point where concepts finally make sense. There is a sort of instant gratification when you are able to find a solution to a tricky math problem. Through my experience with standardized tests like the SAT, I have found many tricks to beating the ???game??? of standardized testing and would love to share them with you. Most importantly, I believe that everyone has a unique learning style and that I, as a tutor, need to adapt to be able to help the students I work with get the most out of tutoring.During my free time I enjoy baking, spending time with friends at a park, and going to music festivals. I also love exploring the city of New Orleans when I???m at school, and I even still enjoy wandering San Francisco despite having lived here my entire life.I think everyone has the potential to succeed in whatever subject they choose as long as they put their mind to it. I am looking forward to the chance to help you reach whatever goals you???ve set!

I received my Bachelor's degree in Psychology at UC Davis, and I am currently a Master's student at California State San Marcos studying Experimental Psychology. My research involves studying peptide influences on maternal behavior in mice, specifically peptides related to stress and alertness. I have a passion for statistics and research methods. My goals for the future involves getting a Ph. D. in behavioral neuroscience and eventually working as a researcher and/or college professor. Through the Master's program, I have had much experience working with undergraduate students helping them with statistical procedures and planning research proposals. I am also currently teaching a section of an Introductory Psychology class at CSU San Marcos. My favorite areas in which to tutor would hands down be statistics and research methods. As a tutor, I value the interaction with students, as I love to be a mentor and provide guidance in both academics and life management strategies. I have many other interests outside of academia, including rock climbing, juggling (I can juggle 7 balls), playing guitar and piano, snowboarding, riding my road bike, going on hikes, and playing board games.

I am a tutor available to teach a wide range of subjects, ranging from test prep to math and history. I am interested in helping any student with a desire to improve their understanding their subject of choice. My personal favorite are history, literature, economics and politics. I have worked with a diverse age group of students, from elementary to university level, with the bulk of my experience with high school and college level work.I have a Master's Degree from the University of Washington in Public Administration and a BA from the University of Texas at Dallas in International Political Economy. Apart from academics, I enjoy photography and kayaking.

I am a college professor with over 10 years experience teaching in higher education (and have loved every minute of it). I am an artist, having received my Master of Fine Arts degree from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, where I also taught Sculpture. I've taught a broad range of topics, from Art History to to Web Design. In addition to Art, I love History, Philosophy, and geeking out on Math & Technology. More than anything, I love to learn, and I hope to collaborate on a learning experience that is as much fun as it is challenging.

I am a former public school teacher for the Los Angeles Unified School District and Para Los Ninos Charter School. I taught 6th grade math, science, language arts, and social studies. In addition to teaching regular school subjects, I have experience teaching standardized test prep. and study skills.I completed my BA from UC Irvine and MA in Education from UCLA. I received my teacher's credentials from UCLA's Teacher Education Program and completed my research inquiry in teaching mathematics. My best subject is math. I find math and science to be my favorite subjects and they have been since I was in elementary school. I found they came most naturally when I was a student.Some qualities that best describe me are: patient, open-minded, respectful, trustworthy, and honest. I work well with students, adults, and families.Some hobbies of mine are playing and watching sports, traveling, spending time with my family and friends, watching movies, and cars and mechanics. What distinguishes me from others is that I was raised in a multicultural environment and am becoming trilingual. I speak English, Vietnamese, and intermediate Spanish.

I am a student at UCLA entering my junior year. I am majoring in English, and I hope to pursue a career in law after schooling. I have experience in journalism and editing, so I am here to help students who need guidance with the structure and grammar of their writing. I can tutor anything from elementary school English to lower division college courses, and am willing to help in every way that I can!

Hello! My name is Ethan Swerdlow, and I am currently working as a Mechanical Engineer at Boeing's Huntington Beach facility.I received a Bachelor of Science degree from Lafayette College in Mechanical Engineering, with a minor in Mathematics. I played Division-I Football for all four years of my undergraduate experience.I was born and raised in San Diego, and attended La Jolla High School. During my high school years, I played varsity football and lacrosse, and completed a rigorous course load.Because of my 8 years as a student-athlete, I understand the complexities of time management that students face when balancing difficult coursework and other activities. Throughout my higher education, I have enjoyed tutoring. My strengths and passions are in math and science. Growing up, I struggled a bit with other subjects, and because of this, I have a great appreciation for the importance of a helpful tutor.

Helping you achieve your academic goals is my top priority. I look forward to working together with you.
