- San Mateo , California ( 94402 )

I am a former K-8 teacher who is highly skilled in the teaching of all elementary-school subject matter. My tutoring is oriented around first discovering the place where the student's understanding is temporarily blocked, and then finding creative ways to break through that blockage so that the student truly understands the subject and his/her natural abilities are revealed and promoted. I have accomplished my objective as a tutor only when the student no longer needs me to succeed in the are... Read more

- 20 miles
I am a retired physical chemist, interested in working with chemistry or physics students. I have taught college freshman chemistry. I especially enjoy working with high school students who intend to major in the physical sciences. Mathematical background improvement is a familiar area of my attention. Thinking through problems physically before detailed mathematical solutions is the preferred methodology. Reasoning and analytical processes are more important than the numerical results....
