Hi. I believe in the "organic" method of tutoring. That means I start out LEARNING FROM YOU THE STUDENT, about what you already know, how you talk about it, and what type of learning process works for you. From there, I create an approach to expressing MY understandings by starting with what you know and speak and expanding on that. Now, there are times when this doesn't work so well, and I need to introduce you to something that is quite unfamiliar at first glance. But even then, I seek comm... Read more

Recently Recieved Master's in Anatomy and Advanced Forensic Anth
- $40 / h
- Berkeley , California ( 94702 )
- 20 miles
I grew up in Berkeley, went to undergrad at Humboldt State University and recently received my master's degree at the University of Dundee in Scotland. I like to teach in a way that makes the most sense to you by using mnemonics and other sometimes odd ways to remember material, I thrive to make anatomy fun and easy to understand. If you don't understand the way the teacher is presenting the material, or the way I am trying to convey it, I will change my tactic until you understand it. I ... Read more

Writing & Reading Coach

For two years as a Stanford Hollyhock Fellow I studied how to help students write better. Through feedback that is both technical (the X's and O's of writing) and power-affirming (asking writers to think deeply about their effect on the reader), I have helped dozens of students get into colleges. In particular, I excel at coaching for the Personal Insight Question (PIQ), a college essay form unique to the UC system, and have led workshops on how to understand and use this type of essay. My...
