Jordan
Ph.D. Student for Physics, Astronomy, and Earth Science Tutoring
Hi! I'm Jordan. I'm currently doing my PhD in Earth and Planetary Sciences at the University of Hawaii at Manoa. I graduated from Swarthmore College (a prestigious liberal-arts college just outside of Philadelphia), where I earned a BA in Astrophysics and a BS in Engineering. I'm extremely passionate about all things space and physics, and any opportunity to talk about what I enjoy. In my undergraduate career, I discovered a love of tutoring. I tutored for six different classes over two ... Read more
Alexi
Chinese Tutor in Kaneohe
I currently tutor a 23 year old Chinese adult in Mandarin because his parents decided not to teach him in order to help his learning of English. He regrets their decision and is now trying to learn it. Chinese is a very difficult language and I enjoy helping other students to grasp all the complexities of the language. I am currently tutoring several adult students over my lunch break at work in the language. I focus on not only speaking Chinese, but also reading and writing. I have stude... Read more

Computer Engineering graduate with some free time on his hands
I graduate from the University of Hawai'i at Manoa (UH Manoa) with a bachelor's in computer engineering. During my time at UH Manoa, I was inducted into the Eta Kappa Nu (HKN) honor society for electrical and computer engineers. Through this process, all members had to tutor other students, typically in freshman and sophomore level engineering courses. Before attending UH Manoa, I studied for two years at Kaua'i Community College (KCC) on the island of Kaua'i. There I became president of t... Read more

Rock Your College Apps with a Personal Statement to Remember
My strong academic background and broad life experience have allowed me to guide students through anything today's school system can throw at them. I have extensive experience tutoring students from elementary to adult ages, but my favorite work is in college admissions guidance.

Having Fun With Mathematical Relationships
As a professor in the field of Developmental Psychology, I spent 30+ years studying how children, adolescents, and adults think about and learn about mathematical ideas. I have written two books on the topic. Since retiring from my university position, I have begun working with individual students who need help with their math studies. As a tutor, my emphasis is on helping students to make sense of mathematics in an engaging way. I use visual materials, manipulatives, and games to make the ... Read more

To teach is to learn twice (Joseph Joubert)
I have always loved learning and that love doubled when I started teaching. I realize that in the process of teaching, you also learn. There is an exchange between teacher and student which is invaluable to both. In life, I've always thought the most effective way to teach was by example. The words you say don't matter unless your actions reinforce them. I also feel you can only be an effective teacher if you are willing to listen and learn from your students. Everyone's thought proces... Read more
