Michelle

10th Grade Math Tutor • +43 Subjects

Nature is my biggest inspiration and astonishes me with its constantly changing state of being. I love how mathematics can quantify and explain nature, from the microscopic to the macroscopic world. It truly is the universal language of the universe. My appreciation for math and how it applies to nature is the reason I decided to pursue my education in Astrophysics and Mathematics. I love the sky and the Universe it reflects. Especially growing up in New Mexico, where our sky is one of the most beautiful in the world. It is what sparked my interest in Astronomy and Physics. Physics is just the mathematical breakdown of the laws of the universe, from subatomic particles to entire galaxies. If you can learn math, you can do Physics. However, I completely understand that math is very intimidating to people and is one of the hardest subjects for many to learn. When teaching math I like to help people breakdown their mental wall, I just cant do it or I am no good at math. You would be amazed how many students I have had who in the beginning believed math was there hardest subject, then, found out down the road, that they actually had a knack for it. I enjoy helping people learn mathematics and its applications. There is no better feeling then helping people become proficient in a math and physics. I believe if you set your mind to something and work at it, anything is possible, even learning math and physics.

Algebra Tutor • +25 Subjects

I am a writer, editor, and content creator for a number of websites. I love using my writing as a means to engage with other people and love helping others learn to love writing and reading as much as I do. I used to do competitive speech in high school, but when I realized you can't really go pro in speech, I headed west from my hometown of Lexington, Kentucky and went to film school at the University of Southern California. From there, I headed to Bloomington, Indiana to get an MA in Communication and Culture. While at Indiana, I was able to continue studying something I love, pop culture, and I got to return to my speech roots by serving as an instructor for Intro to Public Speaking. Nowadays, I still find time to check out as many TV shows and movies as I can, but I also enjoy finding time for dance classes, trivia nights at local pubs, and highly competitive games of Balderdash with my friends.When it comes to tutoring, I like to think of my sessions as a conversation and a collaboration between myself and my students. As a longtime editor, I've become adept at identifying recurring issues in someone's writing and learned to be able to talk to someone about how to rewrite or revamp something instead of telling them what to change. When it comes to other subjects that aren't writing, my approach is focused more on getting the student to develop strategies to learn, process, and remember things rather than drill facts in their head. The key to studying isn't to spend hours of time memorizing, it is having an arsenal of strategies to approach any given academic challenge and using them accordingly.

Dennis

Advanced Placement Prep Tutor • +36 Subjects

My goal in tutoring is to create a learning environment catered to that student's specific needs. I welcome the challenge that presents itself in changing learning situations. I am very patient. I can help provide the interpersonal and organization skills a student needs to develop effective study habits and succeed in their goals. Through excellent communication skills and good listening, I assess the students' situation on a case-by-case basis to determine the students learning style. Whether they are confused on as specific section or want to raise their grade, I will work with them, problem solving to their satisfaction.I received a degree in Economics and English Literature from Tulane University in New Orleans Louisiana. I have over six years of experience teaching. I am the youngest of 6 siblings born and raised in Dallas Texas, Texas. Listening and playing music are a very large part of life, as is reading fiction. Someday I hope to write a novel. I live in Brooklyn with my cat named Puppy.

ACT Prep Tutor • +62 Subjects

I am a rising Senior currently studying neuroscience at the University of Pennsylvania. Science and particularly the inner workings of the brain have been a passion of mine from a very young age, where I remember candidly telling my mother that I would be a neurosurgeon one day.I have been tutoring ever since high school, where I tutored many of my peers in algebra, calculus and French. At the University of Pennsylvania, I have had the privilege of working for our Tutoring Center, which offers private student tutors to fellow peers struggling in a particular subject. In particular, I have spent my time at Penn tutoring Calculus and Physics, two of my favorite pre-med subjects. Tutoring has always been a passion of mine in that I can directly help my student succeed and achieve their academic, personal and professional goals. I always relate tutoring to my dream of becoming a physician, where we place ourselves in a position to help someone else with knowledge that we have acquired.As a tutor, you can always expect me to be happy, passionate and focused on your success. My goal as a tutor is to make sure that you understand the material down to its very basics, and that you get enough practice to ensure that no test question will ever leave you puzzled. Everyone that I have ever tutored has walked out more passionate about the subject, even if it was one they initially hated. They have always had better grades than when they started, and I have been lucky enough to help many of my tutees gain entrance into their dream schools, like UCLA.I must admit that I do not only live studying for MCATs and tutoring, and enjoy cooking when I find the time. I am also an avid Juventus soccer fan, and will try to watch soccer whenever I have the time.

Taylor

ACT Prep Tutor • +32 Subjects

Native Wisconsinite; I traveled around the country for school, but I had to come back home eventually. (Most Arizonans don't know what a cheese curd is.) I love learning about anything and everything, but my greatest passion lies somewhere between math, computer science, and linguistics. I've enjoyed helping and tutoring others since I was young -- probably influenced by my family of teachers. I find there is an important creative aspect to most academic subjects that often gets overlooked, especially in math. I try to incorporate this into my tutoring because it really seems to help people connect with the concepts. In my free time I enjoy making things and exploring what others have made, whether in music, programming, writing, games, or art.I received my BA in Mathematics from Arizona State University, and subsequently attended post-bac programs at a handful of schools. This fall I begin graduate studies at UWM.

Algebra Tutor • +45 Subjects

I am a student at Georgia Tech in Atlanta, Georgia. I love math, science, writing and Spanish. I enjoy tutoring because I love the material I teach. Making it understandable and easy for the student is my goal, no matter if the subject is Calculus, Chemistry, Spanish or English. I teach like I learn, step-by-step, and always thinking through the reasoning behind why something is the way it is. I tutor subjects in many different ways until it is understood well by the student. I look forward to working with you.

Xiaoqi

Algebra Tutor • +50 Subjects

I got my Computer Science degree in China and my Master of Business Administration in Digital Technology in Canada. My tutoring experiences started when my first child went to school 11 years ago. I have been tutoring math and Chinese to students from first grade through twelth grade. I started teaching Chinese to adults two years ago.My favorite math subjects are Algebra and Geometry; I consider these to be two of the most important subjects. I like S. Gudder's quote "The essence of mathematics is not to make simple things complicated, but to make complicated things simple." I try to make math easy for my students; I break down complicated problems, teach students "short cuts," focus on basic knowledge, and make sure students' grades improve.I like teaching Chinese, my mother tongue. At the same time I bring my students absolute non-accent Mandarin speaking and the most educated high-level language. I always share my deep understanding of the culture to my students. Chinese characters are hieroglyphic, which I find fun to learn.I like reading and traveling. China, Canada and USA are all my beloved hometowns. China is where I was born, went to school and had a career as a computer business owner. I am a Canadian citizen. I will permanently live in USA for rest of my life.

Mary

Accounting Tutor • +24 Subjects

I graduated from Tufts University with a double major in Mathematics and Psychology. Subsequently I earned Masters degrees in Education ( Stanford), Accounting/MBA ( Northeastern) and Finance ( George Washington). I earned my Credential to teach Mathematics and Psychology in California, and taught high school in San Jose. I also taught Math at Tabor Academy and at Avery Coonley School. I left teaching full time and now work for the US Government working on accounting and Finance Systems. I am an expert skier and teach skiing during the winter months. I missed teaching so I currently tutor students in all levels of Math and love it! The joy of helping individual students understand a concept and succeed, where they thought they couldn't, is what keeps me tutoring! I enjoy working with all levels of students, working to understand what is/are the concept(s) keeping each one from reaching their potential. Even though I am a self proscribed math geek, I don't expect my students to love math as much as I do, but I try to impart my enthusiasm and love for math. Let's try and enjoy Math together.

Salman

Algebra Tutor • +35 Subjects

I was brought up in Vancouver, Canada. I earned a Bachelor of Science in Cell & Molecular Biology from Simon Fraser University and a Master of Science in Pathology & Laboratory Medicine from the University of British Columbia. After working in research labs in Canada and the United States, I was inspired to pursue Medicine. Recently, I completed a 2 year Post-Baccalaureate program at the University of Texas at Dallas, as a pre-requisite for entry into medical school.Throughout my undergraduate and graduate education, I have had the privilege of tutoring students of various grade levels. My tutoring strength lies in being able to adjust my tutoring style to a student's learning style. Some students may require written notes, while others may prefer conceptual teaching. Certain students require additional homework and assignments while others might be self-motivated. As someone who has tutored for about 3 years, I am proficient in teaching Math and Science to elementary, high school, and college students.
