I graduated from Boston College undergraduates, majoring in Mathematics and minoring in Sociology. I have been tutoring students from grade 6 - 12 for the past four years in various levels of mathematics as well as SAT and ACT test prep. From my past experiences, I've realized that the most integral part of teaching is understanding the position of the student and making an enjoyable learning experience.

Rick
Certificated Math/Science and Computer Educator
- $50 / h
- Sherman Oaks , California ( 91403 )
- 5 miles
Though I currently work as an IT professional, I previously spent over 20 years teaching Math, Science and Computer Programming at High Schools and Colleges in the US, Argentina and Brazil and am fluent in Spanish and Portuguese, I do not use rote learning methods when teaching mathematics. The true joy of math for a student is to discover the patterns that govern it rather than memorize a bunch of rules. Since mathematics is built on abstraction, the idea is for the student to "create" h... Read more

Learn Beginner Piano or Improv from Award Winning Keyboardist
- $60 / h

- 10 miles
I remember the joy I felt when I first started working with a piano teacher at age 6. I couldn't wait to learn everything about the piano and oh, how I wanted to play my very favorite songs. My teacher helped me do just that - learn the ABC's of piano while also learning to play songs the songs that I loved on the radio. I now find the joy in bringing that to a young person. While important to learn how to read music, it is also of utmost importance to love it too, which often requires helpin... Read more
Richard
Expert Writer and Editor with Teaching Credential
- $60 / h

- Sherman Oaks , California ( 91423 )
- 10 miles
As my favorite teacher once said so wisely about writing: "Apply the seat of the pants to the chair." Good writing may not be quite that easy but it is a place to start and a motto to adopt if one is to become a confident and competent writer. I have been a professional writer and editor for many years and have guided other writers through their assigned tasks. I know how difficult it is to write and how hard it is to write what you believe in. My methods are fairly simple. I look to... Read more
