Margaret

Patient and Knowledgeable Math Tutor

Hello I am Margaret! I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Materials Science engineering from UCLA. I was fortunate to have several teachers who imbued the idea that learning was not just rote memorization of facts and formulas but actually an investigation into the ideas and principles that organize our lives and our universe. This is the approach I bring to tutoring. I find it allows students to feel less pressure and stress about the subject and replaces it with a genuine... Read more

Wesley

Experienced College Tutor with Strong Calculus Experience

I am currently a student at University of California Berkeley studying mathematics. I transferred here from Saddleback Community College in southern California. When I first started at Saddleback in the Fall of 2013, I felt as though I had a slew of insurmountable challenges ahead of me. I hadn't taken a math course in nine years, I hadn't been in school for four years, and I was starting from the bottom of the academic ladder, with a seeming mountain of work ahead of me. However, through... Read more

Johanna

Native American English-speaker US Business English Private Tutor

Born in Grosse Pointe, Michigan, I started tutoring "English as a second language" when I was earning an MFA at the University of the Americas in Mexico City and during the time when I was granted the opportunity as the first and only US Citizen to study under Siqueiros, one of Mexico's most famed muralist. Helping others to become more fluent in English is emotionally rewarding so I never stopped. Later in life when I lived throughout Asia with my investment banker husband, I was allow... Read more
