...at the University of Southern California. I will graduate from USC with honors in May, and although I am originally from the Midwest, I plan to stay in the Los Angeles area.

I love teaching! I am a registered college science tutor at...

...Europe, the Middle East, Venezuela, Mexico, India, and pretty much every state in this country. You only live once, and I really do learn something new every day. Of all the jobs I've had while pursuing music and art, I've found that teaching is the one in which I have the most to offer and that gives me the most in return. I believe that confidence is the largest factor in success at anything, and...

...someone find their strengths and overcome academic challenges is the most impactful and rewarding undertaking and is something I hope to continue for the rest of my life. Through patience and understanding, I seek to support my students in whatever ways best accommodate their learning needs.

...received a Bachelor of Arts in Theatre Studies and a minor in Writing, Literature, and Publishing. While in college in Boston, I was struck by a quote on the side of the Boston Public Library: "The Commonwealth requires the education of the people as the safeguard of order and liberty." This statement gives me great inspiration as I work with my students. As a tutor, I have worked with students from ages 5 to 25....

...in a variety of ways. It could mean a weekly tutor to supplement learning, or extra time with a teacher. Regardless of how it is accomplished, a student's access to efficient, individualized education catered specifically to his/her needs can define his/her successes in life. It is my belief that students deserve individualized attention from a single educator who is monitoring that specific student's strengths and weaknesses. A student deserves the best possible shot at life!...

...students with critical thinking, writing papers, and improving test scores. I received my training at Mills College in 2014 where I received a M.F.A. degree in Creative Writing, Poetry. As an expert in my field, I look forward to helping new students achieve their goals. My teaching style is patient, engaging, and challenging. I am interested in helping students gain access to materials that might be challenging and do so by understanding each individual's learning...

I graduated from the University of California, Berkeley with a degree in Applied Mathematics, emphasizing in Actuarial Science, and a minor in Music. I have been tutoring for a few years now. I've tutored students of all ages and levels. I like to keep things simple; my approach is to break down difficult problems into smaller, easier, more manageable problems. I teach my students to do the same. I enjoy helping anybody who wants to...

...received my Bachelor of Science in Psychology with an emphasis in School Psychology. I graduated early in order to devote my extra time to studying for the GRE so I can obtain my Master of Science degree in Family and Marital counseling. Throughout my high school and collegiate career, I have worked with children and young adults of all ages. I have instructed small pull-out groups of students requiring additional academic support and mentored 25...

...on their own and develop their critical thinking skills. As a tutor, I structure my teaching around the student's individual interests and needs. For example, one 6th grade student loved to perform onstage, so we wrote a play to explore theme, plot, and dialogue. My favorite subjects to tutor are reading, writing, English and American history. In my free time, I teach yoga and write creative non-fiction. I love cooking, eating, and travel.

...and I feel like tutoring has a more personalized approach. I tutor English. My main focus is writing which is such an important skill in this day and age, I mean you use it for everything. My teaching philosophy is if you aren't trying to engage the student then they won't try to engage you! It is very import to have fun when you're teaching! Happy students learn faster and will retain what you just...

...start law school next fall. Before I lose another three years of my life to academia, I hope to spend the time I have now to help students get the grades and marks they need to reach the schools of their dreams. I've been on the "treadmill" and I know how brutal the educational arena can be. Thus, I find great satisfaction in being able to help people who were in similar situations as myself....

...teaching science labs to fifth grade classes, and leading health labs for high school students. I also have worked helped students prep for the Law School Admissions Test.

However, I like to focus on standardized testing (LSAT and SAT), college essays and general essay skills, and math. In my free time, I spend time hiking, trying new restaurants, and...

...one on one is being able to go at each student's pace and work with their unique learning styles. I'm personally very visual and need to draw a picture to figure out a problem. I enjoy learning about the student's interests and incorporating them into the lesson to make it more fun and interesting. I've been working in education for about 5 years. I taught preschool and 4th grade and have tutored ages 4 to...

...clients. Last year, I moved to Orange County to begin my first year as a law student at UC Irvine School of Law. I am now in my second year at the law school and feel, if anything, I am even better suited to tutor new clients. Apart from school and tutoring, I enjoy being outdoors with my new puppy, training for and participating in triathlons, travel, photography, and attending country concerts.

...and a minor in Biblical studies. I taught high school students practical life lessons and theology at a local church for a year and am now looking to hone my critical thinking and communications skills by tutoring while I apply for graduate school. I tutor math and English, but between the two I favor English. It teaches us how to communicate ideas and, oftentimes, how to assess the quality of these ideastwo of the most...

...While there are undoubtedly many great tutors in the area, I believe I bring a unique perspective with my legal writing experience.

...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...

...that my experience as a tutor training coordinator and as an adjunct professor has given me a unique perspective on tutoring. I have experience writing and implementing training modules to help tutors prepare to provide students with a writing skill set up to the graduate level. I also currently teach Developmental Reading and Writing at a local college. As an educator, my favorite moment during the learning process is seeing a student experience the "ah-ha"...

...value in simply telling a student that they are wrong, or that they are incorrect. By working with each student through the thought processes and steps that led them to an incorrect answer, they attain a better understanding of why an answer is wrong and how to arrive at the correct one. I specialize in essay writing, elementary-high school math skills, college admissions essays, and test preparation. I am confident that by tailoring personalized learning...
