I am a graduate of San Francisco State University with a degree in Cellular and Molecular Biology and a minor in Chemistry.

I have tutored for many years for the simple reason that I enjoy it and somehow have the knack for making the difficult seem easy. I am a very positive person and feel people learn best with encouragement. Attitude and self confidence are often as important in the learning process as the skill set. I tutor all levels of math, high school physics and Latin. For the past twelve years I have tutored all aspects and sections of the SAT extensively. I tutor the SAT one on one or in small groups....

Beginning and Intermediate Algebra

I have a Masters in Mathematics and am a former instructor at Sonoma State University. I like to keep things simple. Instead of presenting the student with a parade of ideas, I help the student to see each new topic as simply a new expression of ideas they already know. At the end, the student sees all of algebra as essentially an expression of these first few ideas. I find this approach makes learning much much easier, much much faster, much easier to retain. ...

At the heart of all my work is my interest in sharing my enthusiasm for learning with each student I meet. This has inspired me to pursue my studies all the way to my PhD and has sparked my desire to work in education. I hope in all encounters to not only make the student more comfortable with the subject matter at hand, but to encourage him or her to feel more secure and excited about approaching the challenges of new lessons throughout life. In my 10+ years experience as a tutor, educa... Read more

Melissa the Science Tutor

I have been teaching science since 1999. I've taught biology, chemistry, human anatomy/physiology, physical science, ecology and health. I have tutored in chemistry and biology. I love to teach students one on one. I am not a "natural" at science. I've had to work to gain my knowledge, and then to teach it. As a result, I've gained an understanding of the difficulties many students face in trying to do well in science when it doesn't come easy. I have a way of explaining content that simply m...

I have been tutoring one-on-one since my undergraduate days. At the university I tutored computer science to foreign students and a blind student. Due to my approach, my fellow tutors were not aware that he was indeed blind, until it was discussed in a staff meeting. In my career as an IT manager, I tutored computer users, also on a one-on-one basis on the software used at each particular company. I have also tutored friends and family, which is much harder. I have been tutoring, off a... Read more
