Peter

Semi-Retired Teacher

I taught multiple-subject high school level Independent Studies for years. I am also a former educational consultant. I use a question-centered approach, with the student asking most of the questions. I am a deep listener. I usually zero in pretty quickly on any blockages to student mastery of concepts, then prescribe approaches that 'feel right' to the student to learn the material. ... Read more


Jimmy

Take a Journey with an Experienced ShiFu!

I always think of tutoring as a journey of not only learning from each other, but also re-exploring the skills that you think you know so much about. Sometimes what I find out on this journey shocks me, which makes me love even more about it. Let's find out what's next together! I'm from a military family which moves a lot, and I got to meet all kinds of people from all over the country. That's why I'm familiar with different cultures, dialects and expressions in China. I had been living,... Read more

Roger

I love geology and want to help others love it too!

My name is Roger and I am very passionate about geology and I love being able to ignite the same passion in anyone who is interested. My overarching philosophy towards teaching is to help students learn their subject material in such a way as to ignite a sense of wonder and curiosity in the physical world so that the student's natural curiosity begins to take over and learning rapidly increases. I hold a B.S. in Geology from the University of the Pacific and an M.S. in Geology from Califo... Read more

Chris

Undergraduate Physics Major offering tutoring in math and physics

Hi, my name is Chris and I am entering my Junior year as a Physics Major at California State University East Bay. One of the reasons I enjoy Physics is because it is a very math oriented subject. I have enjoyed helping other students who struggle with math and have helped friends and classmates throughout high school, both in-person and over the phone. I recently tutored a classmate in College Algebra. I am comfortable with tutoring middle school, high school, and college students through Cal... Read more

Linda

Math tutor with education coursework and tutoring experience

I graduated from UC Berkeley in 2016 with a B.A. in Applied Mathematics and Computer Science. I've always been interested in teaching, but decided to focus more on getting technical degrees while in college. In my experience, math can be a lot more fun when you work through problems together with other people. It becomes more problem solving rather than just plain old math. During my undergrad, I took an education course where we focused on developing lesson plans for teaching a middle sch... Read more

I grew up in Los Angeles and lived in Japan, going back and forth. After graduating UC Irvine, I've taught high schoolers SAT2 exams for their Japanese proficiency while teaching working professionals to improve their business level speaking. It brings me great joy to see my students improve their grades and to get ahead, as well as gain confidence through their studies. Being able to empathize with the student, teaching accurate information and being able to provide useful tools for bri... Read more
