Ni
Conversational Mandarin Tutor • +8 Subjects
Hello, my name is Ni and I'm a very easygoing and dedicated person. I love language, films and teaching. I majored in journalism in my undergraduate years and have submitted dozens of film criticisms to Chinese major film jornal "Movieview". I came to US to pursue my filmmaking dream five years ago. I enrolled in Loyola Marymount University and majored in Film Production. During this period, I worked as a teaching assistant for a film study course where I gave lectures about "the Art of Cinema". I also worked as simultaneous translator in my part time for several Chinese-American educational program.Right now, I'm working as a professional commercial editor in a TV company. But I have endless passion in language and teaching. I would like to find some opportunities to sharing my knowledge towards mandarin and Asian & US film industry.I'm a passionate and caring person. I would like to teach students and the same time learn from them. We could share different culture, lifestyle, philosophy. It's a plus if the students love cinema. I would like to shape my tutor lessons towards Chinese film clips showing. I believe this will be a great way to learn a language and also to learn a culture with 2000 years of history.

Algebra Tutor • +37 Subjects
I've been tutoring math for about ten years now. From basic math through algebra, geometry and trigonometry, the most important part of learning is getting things in terms the student can understand and grasp completely. I pride myself on my ability to adapt to the pupil's style of learning because everyone processes information in different ways; I identify a students' strengths and put the material in a form that plays to them so as to maximize retention for the long haul. Mathematics builds on what is learned year after year, so it's of utmost importance that a student get a strong foundation and be comfortable with the material to continue to progress in their academia. Everyone is more than capable of learning math, and getting them to subscribe to that notion is my specialty! Please don't hesitate to reach out so we can get on the fast track to success together!

Jason
Algebra Tutor • +32 Subjects
After studying Biochemistry at Long Beach State and graduating with a Bachelor's in Psychology from Central Michigan University, I have a thorough background in Natural Sciences & Mathematics. My expertise in Mathematics and Science also comes from over three years of experience tutoring students ages eight and above in simple to complex Math, Chemistry, Essay Writing, Study Skills, and more. I find great reward and drive in assisting students work through challenges. I am not one to teach as much as guide because I believe in individuals' capacities for growth in efficient learning. My goal is to provide as much information as possible to every student in how to best develop personalized methods for maintaining an open mind for effective learning and memory. My methods can be, at least in part, attributed to my passion for motor sports, which began in rural Michigan. Through racing, I embrace incredible focus which assists me in every area of life. I encourage every student to seek their passions in life, as well as healthy calming and focusing techniques in order to be the most motivated and successful each individual can be.
Chi-Sun
AAI - Accredited Adviser in Insurance Tutor • +85 Subjects
My main goal when teaching math is for the students to truly understand the concepts and reasoning behind math, and not just learn how to apply formulas and do well on tests. Although they may get good grades, this will be useless later in life. In my teaching experience, when students actually learn the concepts and logic, not only does their math vastly improve, but they also learn to enjoy math, which is the ultimate goal. My qualifications include excelling at all high school math competitions including finishing second at the 1989 Colorado Math Olympiad. I also graduated from MIT at 19 years old.
Christopher
ACT English Tutor • +24 Subjects
I graduated from San Diego State in 2010 with a Bachelor of Arts in English. In June 2014, I obtained a Master of Arts in English from Portland State University. Additionally, I took mathematics classes in college up through Calculus III and Differential Equations. I am currently fulfilling the prerequisite courses for the teaching credential program at CSU San Marcos, where I will focus on high school English and Math. Math and English are the subjects I am most passionate and qualified teaching. I have successfully tutored in both subjects whether for class or standardized tests like the SAT and ACT. I have a good deal of knowledge regarding standardized testing strategies as well.My main goal for teaching and tutoring is preparing students for college. I learned very early in my college days about the importance of studying and critical thinking, since the classes were much more difficult than high school. I firmly believe that forming great study habits and developing the skills for studying with others are crucial for success, especially in preparing for college. With that said, I think what one does outside of class cannot be overstated; exercising, volunteering, and engaging in enriching hobbies tempers what one accomplishes at school. I like to do all three of these things, whether through going to the gym, hiking, fly fishing, playing sports or just working outside. I also volunteer in classes to assist younger students who need the most help, such as ESL students.

Algebra Tutor • +27 Subjects
I was born and raised in Long Beach, California and moved across the country to New Orleans to pursue my B.A. in English at Loyola University New Orleans. I taught high school English in that city for three years until I could no longer resist the pull of Southern California. Here, I continued to teach in private and charter schools for six years while I worked toward my teaching credential at Cal State Dominguez Hills.I firmly believe that all learning can be interesting, and I try to impart my enthusiasm to my students. It is important to help students relate content to their own lives and environments so that they learn on a deeper level and can apply their knowledge in the future. As an English teacher, I love tutoring writing skills, literature, and vocabulary development, but I also really enjoy tutoring Algebra and SAT math. My well-rounded background gives me an advantage in SAT preparation, and my easy-going personality makes tests less stressful.When I am not working, I am usually swing dancing! I also spend my time reading, crocheting, and taking selfies with my cat.
Erich
Algebra Tutor • +5 Subjects
I graduated from Caesar Rodney High School and became the 1st member of my immediate family to attend college when I decided to play football and major in Mathematics at the school that best suited my needs: Wesley College.Wesley's math program was small but filled with innovative professors and linked closely with an award winning chemical kinetic research department headed by renowned educator Dr. Malcolm D'Souza. The academic atmosphere encouraged constructive teamwork and helped me value virtuous collaboration and leadership skills. I studied applied and abstract mathematics while also learning pertinent information about the protocol for conducting research. The summer after my sophomore year I approached the chair of the mathematics department, Dr. Derald Wentzien, for permission to conduct an independent study about athletic participation in college. And in 2011, I begin researching Athletic Participation and itsTime Commitment as it Pertains to Academic Progress over the course of the fall semester while I lead the #3 ranked football team in Division III to our 3rd straight national semifinals appearance; the first time it had been done in its 141 year history.The following season I wrote The Art of Winning, a research study detailing the results of my findings, as well as the validity and implications of those results. I used my influence as a student-athlete, beat writer for the student newspaper The Whetstone, undergraduate researcher, and liaison for the Mathematics department to advocate for academic support and accommodations for underprivileged and underperforming students at Wesley College. I went on to accept a full scholarship to the University of Delaware's graduate education program and, in 2014, was hired by one of Delaware's most prestigious high schools, Cape Henlopen HS.I have spent the last 3 years executing rigorous versions of honors and college prep Statistics, Pre-Calculus, and Advanced Algebra. Now, I am ready to move on to the next chapter of my life.Feel free to contact me at erichgillespie93@gmail.com if you have any questions.All the best, Erich Gillespie Jr.

Adult Literacy Tutor • +9 Subjects
An English Literature major from Pomona College, I have been writing and editing for most of my adult life. My father, a professional journalist, taught me well! After a 3-year stint teaching English in Japan, I settled into the San Francisco Bay Area and became a small business owner and entrepreneur. I love tutoring people in how to write and how to speak. It would be my pleasure to help you as well.
Anna Lee
Anthropology Tutor • +62 Subjects
I love science and believe it or not so can you! Science is life and applies to everyone everyday. My method of instruction one I have honed since first being certified for Advanced College Level Tutoring in 97'. Over the years I realized that a strict "across the board" curriculum just doesn't work for every student. Everyone is different, has different ways of learning and tolerance for certain types of instruction. Therefore my sessions are customized to each students individual interests, so rest assured you will have fun and gain the proper understanding of your subject matter!
