...levels. I am currently a Computer Science teacher at The Nueva School in Hillsborough, CA. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Computer Science and English. My students have gone on to MIT, Stanford, and UC.

...who can provide valuable tutoring to any student struggling with the written word. Most importantly, my methods of teaching can help encourage students to regain the confidence in themselves needed to feel prepared and at ease in any academic setting.

...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...

...tutor is math because there is always one, and only one, right answer. Through effective communication and patience, the student is not only able to learn the mathematical process, but also the ability to think analytically. I would say that my tutoring philosophy is based on encouragement and always validating the opinions of the student before steering the student in the right direction. The student must be willing to learn and absorb information, as well...

I love teaching pretty much anything! I began tutoring English, math and science as a freshman in college, then added dance and aerial acrobatics to my repertoire. Now, I specialize in all things English, writing, reading, French and anatomy.

More recently, I founded and led programs at USC to advocate for educational justice for local students and empower...

...was on the year-long Congress-Bundestag Youth Exchange program in high school. I went to Germany knowing only a few words, so I definitely know language learning frustrations first-hand. I kept working at it, studied abroad again at the University of Bonn, and earned my Bachelor's degree in German! I was able to apply these skills as an educator when I taught English in Austrian high schools for two years. I have worked with K-adult learners,...

...have spent time working in a charter school, as a private English tutor in Madrid, and with both private and non-profit academic support and enrichment programs. Over the years I've taught just about every subject. I love helping students develop a positive, can-do attitude in relation to subjects that used to make them feel anxious and confused. (In my experience this is often math or standardized tests, but I also love to tutor writing and...

...verbal GRE score is in the 99th percentile, and as for foreign languages I am fluent in French, have a strong background in Spanish, Arabic and German, scored 100% on the First Year National Latin Test, and have recently taken up Portuguese while studying dance and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in Brazil for two months. I hold students to high standards, but with a light humor and sensitivity to each student鈥檚 unique situation. I believe that...

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.

I tutor a vast array of subjects from Algebra to Spanish, but my favorites are English, History, and organizational skills.

...graduate school applicants, several of whom were accepted to their top choice programs. I have also tutored undergraduate and graduate students who requested support throughout long-term written projects such as term papers and theses. I enjoy tutoring any subject that involves writing, and I have found great satisfaction in helping students organize their thoughts and learn to express themselves clearly and confidently. Many people are nervous and uncertain when tackling a written project, and it...

...tutored students and peers in academic areas more focused on writing and math. A core part of my teaching and learning philosophy is that I will have mastered a material if I can teach another person these concepts and come up with my own examples to illustrate my understanding. I will infuse this goal within my tutoring sessions, engaging tutees to really learn and challenge them to think critically. Another important aspect of my tutoring...

...developing a student's skills over a period of time, rather than simply providing the short term answers simply to achieve an immediate grade. Writing is a skill we develop over the course of our lives, always learning and improving, and it is a skill we will always need, whether we're writing high school essays or cover letters for promising careers. I look forward to helping every student develop and refine their written skills on an...
