If you're looking for a high energy, warm and conscientious tutor, who understands what it means to lead by example and has the entire family in mind, look no further! For more than three years (independently & through educational organizations), I've helped elementary and middle (K-8) students increase confidence and effectively manage test preparation (e.g. ISEE), school applications and interviews. For many years I've volunteered in under-served communities and I received "The Presiden... Read more

Learn Beginner Piano or Improv from Award Winning Keyboardist

- Sherman Oaks , California ( 91403 )
- 10 miles
I remember the joy I felt when I first started working with a piano teacher at age 6. I couldn't wait to learn everything about the piano and oh, how I wanted to play my very favorite songs. My teacher helped me do just that - learn the ABC's of piano while also learning to play songs the songs that I loved on the radio. I now find the joy in bringing that to a young person. While important to learn how to read music, it is also of utmost importance to love it too, which often requires helpin... Read more

Friendly, Fun Lover of Standardized Tests

Hi there! I was a National Merit Semi-Finalist and graduated from the University of Minnesota - Twin Cities summa cum laude. I've always had a knack for standardized tests, scoring 1480 (out of 1600) and 32 on the SAT and ACT, respectively, on my first and only attempts on those tests. Those scores also reflect my current attitude and approach when working with students: I want to see you excel and improve, but I believe we all perform best when we are not put under unnecessary pressure....

Rick
Certificated Math/Science and Computer Educator
- $50 / h
- Sherman Oaks , California ( 91403 )
- 5 miles
Though I currently work as an IT professional, I previously spent over 20 years teaching Math, Science and Computer Programming at High Schools and Colleges in the US, Argentina and Brazil and am fluent in Spanish and Portuguese, I do not use rote learning methods when teaching mathematics. The true joy of math for a student is to discover the patterns that govern it rather than memorize a bunch of rules. Since mathematics is built on abstraction, the idea is for the student to "create" h... Read more

Learn quickly how to write for success for the rest of your life
- $55 / h
- Sherman Oaks , California ( 91403 )
- 20 miles
For the past three years, I've been tutoring students in middle, school, high school and college how to think before they write, then use their own unique voice to write in a clear, organized, compelling way. They have fun. This is because I guide them to naturally gain confidence in themselves, not just what they're learning; and feeling more confident is fun. Everything I do—in life and in tutoring—has a lightheartedness to it while the purpose and goals remain focused and serious. My stu... Read more

Hi, I'm Roxanne, a professional writer, editor and English/reading/writing/test prep tutor. I have taught English at the high school level (9th, 10th, and 11th grades) but actually prefer tutoring one-on-one. I love working with young people and empathize with how difficult it must be for some to make the best grades possible in today's overcrowded classrooms. Although I'm a professional writer, I continue to tutor because it's so fulfilling to see a student gain confidence, improve his or he... Read more
