I offer a very high-level of tutoring that is far more comprehensive than what most tutors offer. In addition to my English degree from U.C. Berkeley, I am also close to completing my master's degree in Psychology from Santa Clara University. Most tutors only address, what I call "content"--meaning the content in the textbook or the content the teacher covers in the classroom. What is severely lacking in the approach of most tutors and tutoring companies is a focus on the internal "process... Read more

Expert Physics Tutor

I teach freshmen (high school) physics students at a highly selective private school in the South Bay. While tutoring I employ a Socratic method which asks students to explain how they know what they know and emphasizes deep conceptual understanding. This is profoundly effective since you cannot explain what you do not understand. As an expert physics teacher, I know where students encounter physics pitfalls and then purposely ask questions designed to guide students through them. Finally, I ... Read more
