I am a compassionate tutor with the intention of making the learning experience positive, informative, and fun! I focus on building confidence and skill level so the student is empowered to eventually tackle the subject matter on his or her own. My primary approach is to create lesson plans tailored to each student's abilities and ways of learning. In this way I can tap into the student's strengths to help overcome the weaknesses.

I have tutored for many years for the simple reason that I enjoy it and somehow have the knack for making the difficult seem easy. I am a very positive person and feel people learn best with encouragement. Attitude and self confidence are often as important in the learning process as the skill set. I tutor all levels of math, high school physics and Latin. For the past twelve years I have tutored all aspects and sections of the SAT extensively. I tutor the SAT one on one or in small groups....

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. ...

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...
