I'm a rising senior at Pomona College with a specialty in critical reading and writing skills.I have prior experience working at my school's writing center to assist first-year students with college-level essays. I have also captained an award-winning collegiate mock trial team for several years, which involves mentoring younger students in oral and written communication skills. In addition to my experience, standardized testing has always been a forte of mine. I am enthusiastic about sharing the skills and strategies that I have picked up along my way.If you are seeking a patient, energetic, and articulate tutor for your student, please reach out. I look forward to helping your student find their individual pathway to success!

I have four years of teaching experience in a variety of roles from principal instructor of college math classes to one-on-one mentoring with high school students. I am passionate about social justice, novel mathematics education, and increasing diversity in STEM majors and careers.Currently, I am working on a thesis in discrete geometry and combinatorics, as well as doing research for UCSF where I design machine vision software. I am well positioned to motivate and justify nearly every aspect of math education as being crucial for a future career in science, engineering or education. I bring this emphasis on real world relevance every time I teach.

A current first grade teacher, I love working with students to achieve reading and writing goals. I am a great tutor because I have over a decade of experience teaching children. I work with students to break down information into easy to manage pieces and make sure they are understanding each step as they go along. If students still seem to be struggling, I return to more basic concepts and help them build upon what they already know. I use a variety of methods in my tutoring including visual aids, hands-on materials, books, and online sources to ensure that all students' learning styles are compatible with my lesson plans. Building a connection with my students is extremely important to me.

Greetings! I am offering one-on-one tutoring in a variety of subjects to young learners in San Francisco. I am available throughout the year to aid elementary and high school students with math, science, English and social studies. I also offer lessons in French, statistics and research/composition skills-- plus test preparation for SAT, ACT, GED and GRE.I am an adaptable and communicative tutor, with a broad knowledge base and varied teaching experiences. After graduating magna cum laude from Georgetown University, I studied and worked on sustainable development issues in Washington, D.C. for several years. I am now pursuing a career in education. I have worked with students in a range of settings-- as a K-12 substitute teacher, an after-school program instructor, and a graduate teaching assistant in geography and economics. My time spent at the head of the classroom has granted me a great deal of patience for working with a range of learning styles, and a passion for creating positive learning experiences.Good luck, and keep studying!-- B.S.F.S. '06, Science, Technology & Int'l Affairs, Georgetown Univ., Washington D.C. GPA: 3.75-- 5 years professional experience in writing, research, analysis and translation.-- 2+ years experience as an educator, working with K-12 and undergraduates.

Currently working on my thesis for my Master's degree in San Francisco. A honor roll student in middle and high school, as well as dean's list student as an undergraduate. I am passionate in helping students improve writing, studying, and organizational skills in order to enter and graduate college.

I graduated from Northwestern University in 2013 with a double major in Economics and Legal Studies and a minor in Business Institutions. I am originally from Austin, TX and migrated north to play Division I Collegiate Women's Golf. As a student-athlete, I learned priceless time management and study techniques that allowed me to balance my course work with 20+ hours a week of athletic commitment. In my senior year, our team made Nationals for the first time in 20 years (eventually placing 15th), and I was awarded the Margaret Akerstrom award for highest female student-athlete graduating GPA (3.9). Currently, I am employed as a financial technology consultant and work with clients to build personalized solutions to address their unique needs.I developed a passion for teaching others how to be successful at a young age. I am the oldest child of three and have a brother (4 years younger) and a sister (8 years younger). Growing up, I excelled at math; however, my brother and sister struggled to understand the concepts. My parents tried to teach them, but ultimately, this resulted in more rebellion than progress. I volunteered to help and found that I really enjoyed the process. The most satisfying experience was tutoring my brother and sister and seeing them begin to develop confidence in school and finally make better grades.What makes me different from most tutors and educators is my strategic mindset. Most teachers recite their curriculums like clock work and take the key details for granted. For example, when solving for the length of the longest side of a right triangle "ABC" (Pythagorean theorem), they will show 2 examples in class without explaining why side "C" is "C". Then on standardized test, the sides are now labeled "EFG", and the child struggles to properly choose the correct inputs to the equation. Memorizing formulas is good, but understanding how and why is better. Answers are good, but repeatable problem solving skills are better. Doing practice tests is good, but focusing on the troublesome problems is better. Simply - knowledge is good, but intelligence is better.My favorite subject matter to tutor is SAT prep (especially math). The best part about the SAT is there are no surprises. Although the questions are "different", they never really "change". What this means is that even a child who regularly struggles at math, reading, or writing can memorize the framework and question types and conquer the SAT. There is a lot of satisfaction knowing that every second of tutoring SAT preparation will guarantee higher scores for the student.

As a tutor, I think building confidence in a student is as important as building understanding. I have loved my studies and am eager to cultivate the same enthusiasm for learning in others.I am a recent graduate from the University of California, Berkeley. I received my Bachelor’s Degree in Geology from the Department of Earth and Planetary Science and completed my undergraduate education with honors.While my passion is earth science, I have had experience and academic success in courses related to biology, ecology, environmental science, astronomy, and geography. I have a strong background in math, physics, and chemistry. And although it was not my focus, I am a proficient writer and am comfortable with the mechanical and conceptual composition of written assignments.My major-specific classes included a great deal of field work as well as lab work, completing problems sets, writing research papers and lab reports, and even mapping a large portion of the Berkeley hills. I completed my senior honors thesis after a year of collaborative research with UC Berkeley faculty and intend to pursue the topic of that thesis in future research endeavors. In the fall of 2016, I plan to begin my graduate education; I am currently in the process of applying to PhD programs.

I have been tutoring for the last five years, and I am grateful that so many students have trusted me to help them achieve their goals. I received my Bachelor of Arts in English Literature from Oberlin College. I am currently studying at San Francisco State University, pursuing my Master's of Science in Physics. Between my undergraduate and graduate studies, I served in the United States Peace Corps to teach English in rural Panama. In San Francisco, I have been enjoying helping my students improve their test scores on the SAT. I have a strong connection to all the subjects I tutor. Because I am studying science, I am most passionate about physics and math, but I excel in every subject I teach. Throughout my life, I have had many wonderful opportunities that resulted from my excellent education. It is important to me that my students receive an excellent education to improve their quality of life. In my free time, I enjoy playing guitar and bass, writing fiction, and improving my chess game.

I graduated from Rutgers University with a double major in Genetics and Psychology. Currently, I am applying for dental school with a DAT score in the 98th percentile. For more than eight years, I have taught students in many different subjects such as DAT, SAT, Chemistry (General and Organic), Biology, and Physics in both classroom and tutoring environments. Besides academics, I have even taught swimming and dance. My tutoring style focuses on tailoring the lesson to target the students weaknesses. I am very attentive and adaptable ensuring a more productive experience. In my free time, I enjoy swimming, running, and traveling.

I earned my B.A. in Political Science and History from Columbia University in the City of New York. I also earned my J.D. from Yeshiva University. I have been an ESL Tutor and college application Advisor on and off for the past 5 years in Asia and the U.S. I can help students prepare for the LSAT, improve their writing skills, and public speaking ability, among other things. In my spare time, I enjoy sports, writing, cooking, and surfing the Internet.
