Andrew
A good explainer of science and mathematics concepts
- $50 / h
- San Diego , California ( 92122 )
- 20 miles
I love science and mathematics and hope to cultivate this same love in my students. As their enthusiasm grows, so too will their performance. I want my students to develop confidence in their own minds, their own understanding of the world around them and their own ability to think about problems and solve them. Difficult jargon and complicated language often stand in the way of learning so I strive to explain things as simply as possible. Good communication is bidirectional. If a studen... Read more

Thanks for taking the time to checking out my page! My name is Kristen and graduated from UCI with a B.S. in Biological Sciences. I also completed a year of additional upper division science courses at UCSD, all focused in Biology/Biochemistry/Pharmacology/etc. They were challenging but it was an interesting adventure to find unique ways in approaching every subject. Mistakes, in my opinion, are encouraged because from every mistake we can learn more effectively. This being said, the more... Read more
Cesar
University Physics & Mechanical Engineering Tutor
- $35 / h

- San Diego , California ( 92121 )
- 20 miles
I began teaching physics laboratories which focused on introductory mechanics about 2 years ago when I began my Master's. After teaching it, explaining the concepts became much easier, and this facilitated my tutoring. I started tying real-life scenarios into the theory the students were learning at the time. Since I'm a visual learner, like many other students, this makes it easier to understand and conceptualize. I have experience tutoring Algebra, Pre-Calculus, Statics, Dynamics, Mecha... Read more

I have been a tutor for many years. I began tutoring in high school as the captain of my track team in Chicago where it was my job to make sure my fellow teammates were eligible to participate. It was honestly a very hard but rewarding road. This was due to students requiring much more attention and work than a single homework assignment here or there. I needed work with lower class-men to really make sure they understood the material throughout the year. It was amazing to see students p... Read more

Hi there. I have to admit even the summary of my resume won't fit in the two paragraphs that Wyzant is allowing. :-) So here's a very abbreviated verison. I received the Ph.D. in engineering from UCSD in 1992 and a B.S. degree in mathematical sciences (probability and statistics) from UCSB in 1985. I've received technical awards from various professional organizations and an honorary doctorate too. In 2009, I had the great privilege to be named one of the top-100 most influential alumni in t...
