A Tutor Who Will Help You Succeed

- San Francisco , California ( 94104 )

Success in learning is knowing how to get from here to there by developing the necessary skills. It is about learning effectively. My tutoring teaching techniques focus first, on my understanding how a particular individual person learns - for example, visually, orally, through rote memorization or otherwise - and then using that information to develop a plan by which I can assist the student to learn the subject matter most effectively. I also provide a context for the subject matter being... Read more

I have years of experience helping students prepare for the tests I teach. I have refined ideas and developed my own strategies to help students understand how to succeed and improve on the standardized tests. Students need structure, a strategy, and support to succeed on these tests; it's my job to provide those things. I graduated from Vassar College with a degree in Science, Technology, and Society. I studied a mixture of hard and social sciences, and worked as an Organic Chemistry teac... Read more
Paola
Italian, bilingual, patient teacher.
- $40 / h

- Orinda , California ( 94563 )
- 15 miles
Having an Italian father and an American mother I had to grow up bilingual. Half of the family only spoke Italian and the other half English. I grew up in Italy so I know the language and the culture and the differences between living in Italy and in the US. Subtle differences such as when you're offered something saying "yes, thank you" as opposed to "yes, please". I know first hand the challenges, and benefits, of handling 2 different languages, and as I teach Italian to my adoptive niece... Read more

Hey! My name is Dylan and I just graduate UCLA with a degree in economics. I have over 7 years of experience tutoring at many levels, from middle school up to fellow college students! I love getting to know my students, and helping frame topics they’ve learned in a new way; most of the time, a topic just needs to be presented differently, or broken down further. I have taken and passed AP tests in math (statistics and calculus), science (biology, environmental sciences, and chemistry), com... Read more

- Alameda , California ( 94501 )

Mathematical concepts have always come easy to me. It is a talent I was born with and enjoyed every subject from arithmetic, to geometry and trig, algebra and calculus, linear algebra and real analysis. It was an easy transition to computer science. My career took me from database programming to web development and continues to evolve. I have found that the most common problem a student has with any higher mathematical concept is a building block that was missing or overlooked. My responsibi... Read more
