Caitlin

Effective English, History, Study Skills, and Art tutor

I am currently attending college as a History major. I will likely become a teacher after college, and I love to tutor students in the subjects I possess the most passion for. I have the most knowledge in English, Art, study skills, and History. I love helping people learn, and each individual is unique. There is no right or wrong way to learn; sometimes, it just takes time to discover the appropriate method for each individual. I was tutored as a teenager before taking the SAT. It was ...

Melissa

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...

Special Needs and Visually Impaired students of all ages

I have been helping students with special needs for over 10 years. I specialize in students with visual impairments, but have worked with students of all abilities. I enjoy helping students achieve their greatest potential. The past few years I have helped many students prepare for SAT and ACT tests, which includes asking for accommodations as necessary for those with IEPs. Standardized tests have become the norm but not all students are test-takers by nature. I love to help students gain... Read more

Michael

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. ...

Jeffrey

Helping students make connections

I am a graduate of San Francisco State University with a degree in Cellular and Molecular Biology and a minor in Chemistry. I have been tutoring and teaching math and the sciences now for several years. I am passionate about science, and communicating that passion to others. My teaching strategy is a combination of various elements. I am a big believer in the idea that the best way to learn is to teach. To that end, I ask many questions to encourage the student to teach me what they know a... Read more
