Multiple Sciences

Jun 14 2008

Hello! 
I am available to tutor asap in a variety of subjects. 
I am a certified UC Berkeley tutor and have 3 years of 
tutoring experience from UC Berkeley. I can provide a good 
reference from the head of tutoring services at University 
of California, Berkeley. 
I graduated from UB Berkeley May 2008 with bachelors in: 
Molecular & Cell Biology 
Peace & Conflict Studies 
Integrative Biology 
South & Southeast Asian Studies. 

I can tutor all subjects up through K-12. 
More specifically, I can tutor any level of general 
chemistry, organic chemistry, biology, physics, writing, 
social sciences, history and other humanities. I am very 
friendly to work with and have years of tutoring 
experience! I prefer to tutor in the Berkeley area. Thank 
you.

Greetings wonderful parents!
I have a keen interest in helping struggling students 
succeed, as I was one of them when attending school! :)
I have a Bachelor of Science in Horticulture from UC Davis, 
a Biological Science Teaching Credential from Mills 
College, valid until 2013, and five years of teaching 
experience. Two of those five years were spent teaching 
High School Biology to freshmen and sophmores. I have also 
taught at the college level in Horticulture, and did 
extensive standardized (such as SAT, GRE) grading for The 
Princeton Review in 2006. I'm told I'm very good at helping 
students get organized, and learn more about their own 
individual learning styles and challenges. My rates are 
generally 50.00 per hour, and I try to keep my visit to a 
1.5 hour minimum to cover my travel expenses, but I am 
somewhat flexible.

Hello,

I'm a recent graduate from UC Berkeley. My undergraduate
major was Molecular and Cell Biology and my minor was in
Nutritional Sciences. I have had a variety of teaching
experiences, mostly with elementary school children, but I
have also tutored a high school student in chemistry. My
schedule is pretty flexible. Also, I grew up in Latin
America and Taiwan, so I'm fluent in Mandarin and
conversational in Spanish. Please contact me for my resume.
Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks!

I have a PhD in Biochemistry, and I am currently working 
for the USDA in Albany. I have over 3 years experience in 
tutoring science, mathematics and english at the high 
school level. I have also taught several college courses 
in biological sciences, and can therefore tutor these 
subjects also. I am a flexible and friendly person.

Hello wonderful parents!
I am a credentialed science teacher, and have worked with
students of all grade levels up to the college level. My
high school Biology students told me I was great at teaching
them how to ''break down'' difficult concepts, take text book
notes, create acronyms for hard to learn terminology, and
how to ace an exam, but most of all, how to learn and
believe in themselves. I can provide content knowledge as
well as coaching and am very attentive to email
correspondence with both parents and students. Contact me if
your young person is struggling and is not getting the
personal assistance they need to be successful. I have
worked for Chabot Las Positas Colleges, Merritt College,
Oakland Unified, and am now doing substitute work in between
full time jobs for Alameda Unified School district, so rest
assured I have been certified and my references are
excellent. In other words, you are safe with me! :)
Generally my tutoring rates are 50.00 per hour.

I am a graduate of Wellesley College (2005) with a major 
in biological sciences. I am passionate about science and 
love tutoring students in Biology and Chemistry.  
After college I worked for Upward Bound-Boston as a 
science tutor in their summer college-prep program. 

I have a year of experience as a private tutor teaching 
elementary, middle, and high-school students in 
Albuquerque, New Mexico while attending graduate school. I 
also have experience working with ADD and ADHD students. I 
currently teach at an after school program in Oakland. 
References include supervisors from tutoring agencies and 
the Upward Bound program. $50/hr for a weekly session 
taught at home. Please e-mail me with questions and for 
more information.

I am currently a Ph.D. Graduate Student at UC Berkeley in
Electrical Engineering. I have 3 years of experience
tutoring/teaching courses in a private setting and small groups.

The subjects I tutor are High School Chemistry and Physics,
as well as College Level Physics. I can provide preparation
for standardized exams in the aforementioned subjects
(AP/SAT II) and I myself have scored well on them (SAT II
Physics 800, AP Chem 5). 

I can tutor at your home or in a public place within 20
miles from Berkeley. My rates are only $20-$30 hour. 

I emphasize intuition and practice. I teach students how to
visualize a never-before-seen-problem, form an analogy to
something simpler, break it down to several steps, and apply
the proper concepts to solve it successfully. I also show
students how to approach exams effectively and assign
problems that target their weak points.

Do you long to be the master of your studies, yet you're
mystified at your reading list, alienated by overpopulated
classes, and feeling lost? I can help you.

I'm a Princeton PhD student in Plasma Physics. I'm on leave
because I'm founding a company, and I'm tutoring on the side
to pay the rent.

If you give me enough time to work with you, I can turn your
confusion around. I'll make it my personal mission to equip
you with the skills to not only ace the coming exam, but to
go out and conquer any new academic challenge on your own.
I'll teach you how to teach yourself (and I'm an expert, I
skipped seven grades and entered college at 12). I'll be the
last tutor you'll ever need.

Don't wait until finals. Get started now. You really can be
a top student. I can help get you on that path.

I tutor in Math, Physics, and Computer Science. I have no
vehicle, I live in the Berkeley area. It is best to meet in
a public or university library.
Private or group $25/hr.

I am a Stanford graduate (BS Physics with Honors in
Astrophysics, English minor) with experience tutoring high
school and college students.  I am qualified to tutor math
and physics to students of all levels of ability.

I offer tutoring in all levels of physics through freshman
level college classes, including high school physics, Honors
physics, AP physics B+C, modern physics, mechanics, light
and heat, and radiation and electromagnetic waves. 

My tutoring sessions typically meet near Berkeley campus.  I
can make home visits throughout the east bay and San
Francisco, for a small convenience fee.  My individual rate
is $40 /hour, with a group rate of $30 /hour. 

Contact me for further information, a copy of my resume and
references, or if you are interested in setting up a session. 

Thank you!
