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

- $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

Ward
Writing & Reading Coach
- $100 / h

- Berkeley , California ( 94702 )
- 20 miles
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...

My 30 plus years of teaching writing at the University of San Francisco (USF) and tutoring at USF's Writing Center have given me extensive insight into helping students to become better writers. As a published author (two of my novels have been accepted for publication as has my poetry collection), I bring another level to my tutoring skills. I know all of the pitfalls that we can fall into when trying to shape our thoughts into legible prose. Now that I've retired from classroom teaching, I... Read more
