I'm not going to find the answers for you, but I will show you the path to finding the answers yourself.

As you can see from my profile pic, I have done some long bicycle touring. The farthest I've gone... Read more

Drawing on my diverse background, I tutor students in Music and Chess (beginning-intermediate), Math (K-8), and English (reading and writing: K-12).

Hello, I am a 3rd year Civil Engineering Major and a Korean minor attending UC Berkeley.

Arvind
UC Davis Grad for Social Sciences & English Tutoring
- $40 / h
- Berkeley , California ( 94704 )
- 7 miles
I love to tutor students to help them not only do well in their classes, but to hopefully enjoy their subjects as well. I have been a Big Brother before, where I helped to tutor a middle schooler. The best part of tutoring is seeing someone who did not like the subject they were learning to develop both a love of the subject and a passion for it. I work with students by determining what their objectives are and try to set a week-by-week schedule where progress can be measured and the goal of ... Read more

I have been tutoring for ten years, both private and through a non-profit company, Aspire Education Project. In addition to the primary subject, I strive to teach the correct studying habits and become as involved as possible with my students to facilitate better learning. My method of teaching varies and depends mainly on the student, and being able to adapt to the student's learning method is a key in any tutoring session. Through my position as a lead instructor at a summertime STEM-inspi... Read more

- 20 miles
My relationship with tutoring started when I was a computer science freshman. I realized I would understand the class material when I started to explain it to some of my peers. This motivated me to organize and direct tutoring sessions after hours. At the same time I became a music teacher during the weekends. Teaching multiple topics, ranging from computer programming, math and music to young kids and adults helped me understand that for a student to learn, it has to do less with the complex... Read more
