Tutoring is an act of observation. It succeeds where normal instruction fails because it is geared toward a student's particular strengths. My best experiences as a tutor have been with the students who needed me most, learning how they needed to learn. I have been a tutor in one setting or another since childhood. As an undergraduate I was a teacher's assistant in English, German and Astronomy, a grader in Calculus and a tutor in Physics for scientists and engineers. I have continued to... Read more

Alli
UC Berkeley Grad for English/Test Prep Tutoring
- $60 / h

- 10 miles
Hi, I'm Alli! I graduated from UC Berkeley in May 2023 with a Bachelor's degree in Molecular and Cell Biology, with a concentration in Genetics, Genomics, Evolution, and Development. As a first-generation college student, I know how intimidating it can be to ask for help in school. There's a drive to be self-sufficient and avoid asking questions that seem "dumb" that's hard to ignore. I wish I learned sooner that this kind of thinking will only hold you back—realizing you can improve and seek... Read more

I've been teaching or tutoring for over twenty years in some form or another. For me the reward from tutoring is when I see that a student has caught onto an idea, when the light bulb goes on. In my career I've not only studied physics, mathematics and statistics, but applied them as well as time management and study skills. I can help a student succeed in all these areas. My career has included a PhD in Nuclear Physics, postdoctoral work in nuclear astrophysics and over twenty years of e... Read more

I can teach many subjects, from linear algebra to vocal choir work to water polo, and everything in between. I’m available fairly often, and can work around the students schedule as desired. My leadership style is much more of Servant Leadership, where the tutor and the student are equals and can work together, not just a one sided talk and listen approach. I graduated from high school with a 4.6 GPA and 10 passed APs, and I’m continuing my education at UC Berkeley to study Civil Engineeri... Read more
