Paul
I've been teaching and tutoring for over fifteen years and to me the most important aspect of teaching is that the student learns how to think for him or herself. Without that, there is no real learning. This begins with the relationship between teacher and student. There must first and foremost be ...

Enrico
College English Tutor • +15 Subjects
I am a graduate of The University of Verona, Italy. I received my Bachelor of Arts inForeign Languages and Literature with a focus on Philology and Literature.Since before graduation, I have been tutoring students in Italian, English and Mathematics. In 2009, I attended a T.E.F.L. course and since then I have been tutoring and teaching English in Los Angeles.In my experience, helping students to learn a new language is a way to share different cultures and traditions. It is a great chance for creating professional and private connections.I am a firm proponent of education, believing it to be absolutely necessary for an improved quality of life, and I try to impart this appreciation to all of my students.In my spare time, I enjoy listening to music, reading books, exercising, going to new gallery exhibits, and expanding my knowledge in some creative fields.

I am an Astronomy Major, working on a Master's Degree at SDSU.I have an M.S. in Electrical Engineering (Computer Vision) from UCSBand a B.S. in Chemical and Materials Engineering from Cal Poly, Pomona.I work as an astronomy professor at Southwestern Community College.I have Tutored Astronomy and Physics at SDSU for about a year and a half.Prior to that, I tutored Math, Chemistry, and Physics at Cal Poly Pomona during my undergraduate degree. At Cal Poly Pomona, I was a member of Tau Beta Pi, an honors student engineering society, elected because of my academic performance. I have also taught electronics to non-science majors while I was at UC Santa Barbara.I find out about the student I am tutoring and the subject matter. I believe in meeting the student at his or her level of understanding and proceed to help in the explanation of physical concepts and use practical examples. I often teach the student how to decode and understand word problems in math and physics and convert them into the simplest equations. My first class in Algebra in high school was a challenging course for me, and I remember needing to meet with the teacher before class to help me learn the concepts in order to keep up with the rest of the class.

Anatomy & Physiology Tutor • +22 Subjects
I'm from La Crescenta, California and just graduated with a Psychology degree from UCLA. I also attended Glendale Community College, and have extensive knowledge about the transferring process. I have tutored in Pre-Algebra before and worked as a teen camp counselor for UCLA. I have a passion for learning and really enjoy helping other people learn as well. As a tutor, I focus on explaining each topic thoroughly at its core so students can understand base concepts more easily. My favorite subject is English and I love writing. I am now studying for law school with hopes to become a lawyer. As well as essay writing and English, I tutor in Biology, Math, Psychology, and other subjects. In my spare time, I absolutely love watching movies, exercising, and writing creatively. I look forward to meeting you!
Aline
ACT Prep Tutor • +45 Subjects
I love tutoring and have been working with students of all ages for over 15 years. My undergraduate education at St John's Collegea unique school that has retained the traditions of classical educationprovided fertile ground for my work as a tutor. By engaging deeply with a range of texts, from Euclid's Elements to Pascal's Penses, I developed close reading skills and a love for all things literary. I then passed on those skills and that passion when I began teaching at Landmark School in Massachusetts. At Landmark, a school for students with language-based learning differences, I especially sought to strengthen students' reading and writing skills. Since coming to California to pursue my master's and doctorate degrees, I have continued to develop students' reading and writing skills so that they too can develop a love for the written word. Other than tutoring and studying, I can be found riding my bike, hiking, baking and exploring places around the Bay area.

I recently graduated cum laude from New York University with a double major in Psychology (with honors) and Philosophy, in addition to a Creative Writing minor. In the next few years, I intend to continue my education by pursuing a doctorate in Clinical Psychology. In my free time, I generally prefer to spend it writing, cooking, and playing guitar.As the son of two public school teachers, I quickly learned to recognize the value of a quality education, and the far greater value of using one's knowledge to help others. After taking assorted private tutoring jobs throughout high school to earn some pocket money, I worked in the College Learning Center and as a academic tutor at the Salk School of Science during my time at NYU to help with the cost of tuition.While I feel confident in my ability to help students excel in a variety of subjects, I personally find it most rewarding to work with teenagers preparing to apply for college. This period can be extremely important for a young person's future success, and I know firsthand how overwhelming the pressure to succeed can get when you feel like you have to face it alone. With my passion for writing, I can aid my charges in overcoming character limits and the discomfort of talking about themselves, allowing their personal statements to express their best selves in an eloquent and concise manner. For standardized testing, I can use my experience to provide tips not only to improve vocabulary, reading and math skills, but also about how to deal with the unique problems caused by the nature of these tests.Regardless of one's individual learning needs, I believe that calm, patient guidance and unwavering encouragement can benefit any student. Whatever assistance you may need, I am here to help.

I am a certified 6-12 English, theater, and speech teacher. Although I loved teaching junior and senior English in Idaho, I am now in California and am excited to get to know my new students here. My content strengths include teaching grammar, annotation, and comprehension. I believe that students who have ownership of their learning will grow and improve beyond any external expectation placed on them. Let's begin the process of active learning today.

I’m currently a rising senior and Presidential Merit Scholar at the University of Southern California. I’m studying biomedical engineering and planning on combining my interests in technology and medicine in my aspirations of becoming a physician.Nonetheless, education and mentorship is a huge part of my life. Throughout my entire college career, I’ve been teaching grades ranging from 3rd grade to high school about subjects ranging from life sciences, physics, and engineering concepts. I’ve also gone through my fair share of standardized testing ranging from the PSAT to the MCAT and really believe I’ve come to learn the tips and tricks you need to succeed on such tests. As a result, I have informally helped a lot of my younger peers through their academic and mental preparation for these exams. I also am very familiar with the college application process and the pre-med/engineering life following, and I would love to be able to mentor/assist anyone who is thinking of a career path in engineering or medicine, or even both as I am pursuing!I’m excited to be able to apply what I know in a meaningful way through tutoring or mentoring, and I look forward to hopefully helping and getting to know anyone who believes they can benefit from my experiences.And of course, as they say at my university, whatever test or course you are going through……Fight on!
