Algebra Tutor • +42 Subjects

I received my Bachelors of Science in Electronic Engineering with an emphasis in robotics. After graduation, I taught Robotics and Mathematics to students at various high schools to prepare them for national contests. Then, I traveled to South East Asia, to do an MBA in Finance and Banking with a full scholarship.I am also the founder of cultural community to bring students from different part of the world together.I was hired as a full-time lecturer in the business faculty at Limkokwing University and for four years, I taught Math, Economics, Finance and Business Statistics. I was voted best lecturer in the Business faculty by students for seven consecutive semesters. I received a scholarship to study for an MA in Economics from BGSU while tutoring students in Math and Economics for one year. I was then hired as a Business Analyst at the United Nations to work on ODS. I am passionate about teaching Math, Finance, and Economics. Helping struggling students prepare for exams is a very rewarding experience. 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.

Ryan

Algebra Tutor • +8 Subjects

I am a college graduate with a degree in chemistry. In pursuit of my degree I have become knowledgeable about a variety of subjects such as algebra, calculus, physics, and all things chemistry. In college I found out how I learned best and recognized that all people are different in how they learn and study.Recognizing that all people are different is important to my approach to tutoring because what works for some won't work for others. In addition to my experience working with other people in college, I worked as a supervisor at an overnight summer camp. In that time I had one on one instruction with hundreds of campers all from different backgrounds to teach a variety of skills.

Joschua

College English Tutor • +38 Subjects

I have been an active learner all my life. It is not just the formal learning that counts, but informal as well including reading, traveling, meeting new people, and trying new things, all of which enrich our lives. I have always been a strong advocate for education, because, I believe, it is the best way to explore the world and find one's place in it.I am a published writer of fiction and poetry and I am currently writing a screenplay for a feature length film. I founded and run a literary and art magazine called The Literati Quarterly. I have been fortunate enough to serve in the United States Air Force where I acquired Russian linguist training and the US Army National Guard where I acquired French linguist training. I look forward to putting not only my life experience to your service but also my passion to learn and teach.

Meredith

Adult ESL/ELL Tutor • +10 Subjects

I graduated from the University of Iowa in 2018 as an Honors English major in the creative writing track with minors in French and art history. I'm also a recent graduate of the Columbia Publishing Course. As someone who works in publishing, the written word is my life. I'm passionate about giving my students the skills they need to tell their own stories in the ways they want to tell them. I have years of writing experience in workshop classes and literary reviews, in addition to my volunteer experience in teaching English as a second language (ESL). In college, I volunteered at my university's international student conversation practicum. When I got to Boston, I completed a month-long training to teach English at the Boston Chinatown Neighborhood Center. My teaching style is focused on empathy and communication, while always finding ways to have fun.

Hafid

Algebra Tutor • +16 Subjects

I have tutored since high school, where I began tutoring junior high students in math. Since then, I have helped students (including medical students doing hospital rotations) succeed in academics. I have improved a lot in my teaching methods and make each session high energy and interactive.Most recently I did a pediatrics internship at UCSF-Fresno, but with my background in the biotechnology industry, I'd like to go back into research. I enjoy math almost as much as Biology/Medicine and am willing to teach most math topics through Calculus in addition to the SAT, Biology, Physiology, and the MCAT.

Alaina

Algebra Tutor • +20 Subjects

Helping students always brings me great joy and excitement! I have always loved being able to see the "lightbulb" go off when things finally click for students! I have been a tutor for over four years, with three years experience of mathematics tutoring experience and one year of early elementary tutoring. While receiving my undergraduate degree, I was a mathematics tutor for my university tutoring a wide variety of math subjects, including some computer science courses. Currently, I have received my Bachelor's degree in mathematics and biology and am pursuing my Master's degree in Public Health. My favorite mathematics courses to tutor include Algebra, Calculus, and Trigonometry! When I am with a student, I always strive to make sure I fully understand what questions the tutee may have during the session, and ensure that I am able to answer these to the best of my ability. I love using both visual and auditory methods to ensure I am able to relay my information as best as I can! Since I received multiple semesters of training for tutoring in my undergrad, I am able to accommodate students to however they are best able to learn, whether that is more visuals or using alternative explanations. Although I am extremely passionate about Mathematics, other areas I am interested in include History and Science!
