Hi,
I am a recent UC Berkeley graduate in Applied Math, looking
to tutor high school students.
I have developed a thorough knowledge of the subject, and
general strategies for working effectively with abstract
concepts. I have experience applying mathematical concepts
in practical areas, and an ability to lucidly convey them.
I am prepared to help with:
Algebra, Geometry, Precalculus, AP Calculus, AP Statistics,
anything else math-oriented at a high school level.
Three semesters of physics for science students have also
adequately prepared me to tutor physics through the AP level.
I have tutored before in math and programming while still a
high school student, but since I am just starting out after
a long gap, I'll be charging a very competitive rate of $25
an hour.
Please email me if you're interested. My schedule is
currently very flexible.
Thank you,

teaching so that students can understand that math isn't as
hard as it may seem.
EXPERIENCE
I have tutored undergraduate math (pre-calculus, calculus,
multivariable calculus, linear algebra and differential
equations) with the campus' Student Learning Center, along
with tutoring general high school mathematics such as
algebra, geometry and trigonometry with the Bridell Institute.

Hi all,
I have just finished my first year at Columbia University
SEAS and I'm looking for some tutoring gigs this summer. I
will be declaring my applied mathematics major this fall
when I return to NYC. I graduated from Berkeley High School
last year, so I can help in any mathematics subject offered
there (except possibly AP stat since it has been three years
since I've taken that class). I'm also willing to tutor
multivariable calculus, ordinary differential equations, and
perhaps linear algebra. I've been tutoring since 8th grade,
and was an Algebra 2 TA in my sophomore year at Berkeley
High. I'll be around in Berkeley all summer, and will have
my own transportation. My rate in NYC was $30/hr, so I will
charge that here as well. Email me if you're interested.
My university email is gaz2103@columbia.edu if you want to
verify that I am a student there. Hope to hear from you soon!

Effective individual learning support in elementary and
middle school math preferably utilizing the Making Math Real
strategies I have found to be most enjoyable and efficient
in laying the conceptual foundations and reinforcing
required skills. As a certificated educational therapist I
can draw on rich experience with a range of learning
differences that can affect math performance, such as
dyslexia, visual, memory or attentional problems, ADHD,
NLD,or Autistic Spectrum Disorders such as Asperger's,
High-Functioning Autism or PDD-NOS. Students truly enjoy my
sessions and perform demonstrably better.

I am a Masters student at Mills College in Oakland, and have
just completed my BA from Oberlin College in Astrophysics
and Music Composition with a Mathematics minor.
Since high school, I have been involved in mathematics
tutoring, from Algebra I, to Calculus II and SAT prep. I
can tutor all ages from youngsters just beginning to learn
math to older students embarking on multivariable calculus
and beyond.
I am very patient and reliable. My greatest strength is
that I am good as seeing math problems from different angles
and thus can help a student understand the problem in the
way that makes the most sense to them. I believe that to
truly learn mathematics it is far more important to focus on
concepts than memorization, and knowing the ''why'' of
concepts is essential for building a strong mathematical
foundation.

Hi Parents!
I'm currently a UCLA student majoring in math and minoring
in Social Thought. I graduated Berkeley High in 2007, so I'm
very familiar with the curriculum there. But I'm comfortable
with all high school math including Calculus and college
tests including SAT I, SAT II, ACT, and AP test material. I
have a flexible schedule and a car so I accommodate your
child's busy schedule. (It can get crazy, I know.) I have
tutored math for the past two summers, so I'm an experienced
tutor and I know what works. Email is preferable, but feel
free to call me.

I am a recent UCLA graduate in International studies on track to start law
school in the Bay Area this fall. I have a tremendous enthusiasm for
education and children and have spent many years tutoring kids K-12 in all
subject areas, but usually with an emphasis in math. During all four years of
my undergraduate study at UCLA I volunteered with two tutoring programs:
Watts Tutorial and Amigos de UCLA. Both programs are dedicated to
providing free tutoring and mentoring for at-risk and disadvantaged youth.
While I was not a math major in college, I received a perfect score on my
Advanced Placement Calculus test and feel comfortable tutoring basic math
skills through AP Calculus. Additionally, I have taken two years of college
level Spanish and could offer some Spanish grammar tutoring as well as
tutoring in chemistry, physics, history, english and some SAT prep. I have my
own car and a very flexible schedule. Please contact me via email if you're
interested.

There is still 8 weeks left of school, still time to turn
things around if we so wish!
As a high school math teacher, I have an understanding of
the mathematics, the curriculum, what comes before, and what
follows in your student's path through mathematics. This
means that if your child is lost, or needs direction on what
to work on, I will know what how to guide them, and what is
important.
I honestly like students, love my profession, and am really
curious about our mathematical thought processes. This
helps me develop a good rapport with students which is so
very important to their success.
Please email me for information about my rate and
availability (I only take on a few students a year). Thank
you and best of luck!

Hello: I recently retired from a career in scientific
research (geophysics), and am tutoring students in math
and science (grades 6-12).
I have 2 kids in highschool and am aware that students
today are busy with schoolwork, sports and/or other
activities. Because kids today are so busy, they often
find it difficult to identify the most important concepts
taught in their classes.
My approach is to help the student gain confidence and
proficiency over their course material by guiding them
through their homework, and identifying and emphasizing
the fundamental aspects of the material in term they can
relate to.
I tutor at my home on Lakeshore Ave in Oakland or at your
location. Rates and references available upon request. I
am registered with Care.com. My profile is posted at
www.linkedin.com/in/scblair
Thank you for your consideration.

Hi everyone,
I am currently a third year Mechanical Engineering fulltime
student at UC Berkeley, and I would like to use some of my
free time to tutor either math (from pre-algebra to
calculus, statistics) or physics for some extra cash to pay
for food. As you can see Im willing to charge a lot less
than most other private tutors.
Credentials:
-I have just finished tutoring a senior in high school
(also $20/hr) for AP Calculus, so feel free to ask me for
the reference.
-I have a 3.5 GPA in Mechanical Engineering at the end of
my Junior year.
-In high school, I scored a 5 on AP Calculus (BC), AP
Statistics, and AP Physics. Additionally, I scored an 800
on SAT II Math and SAT II Physics.
**** Since you probably want to test me out before you
start paying, the FIRST SESSION IS FREE, so you can see if
your son/daughter and I are a good fit.
Thanks!

I have been a high school math teacher in SF and Hayward for the past 6
years. Having taught everything from pre-algebra to pre-calculus, I am fully
dedicated to maximizing each students potential. Students in my classes not
only learn algorithms, but learn to think critically and to appreciate the beauty
and history of mathematics an important step in becoming a lifetime
learner. This effort has led me to nominations for Teacher of the Year 4
consecutive years.
I am also a big believer in the steep learning curve provided by one-on-one
tutoring. Whether your child would like to review or preview a course, I can
provide an individualized learning plan complete with benchmarks tailored to
meet specific needs. I am more than a tutor; I am a teacher.
Please email me to discuss your childs goals and how I can assist.
(I am based in Oakland/Piedmont, but can tutor in the comfort of your own
home.)
I look forward to working with your family!
