Award-Winning Microeconomics Tutors serving Berkeley, CA

...philosophy to my mom - a college psychology professor prior to immigrating to the U.S. The methods she used to help me learn and to drive my curiosity still influence how I think and learn concepts today. From her, I learned that a meaningful education requires more than just knowing facts and how to find the right answers. A good teacher must help students recognize their individual learning styles, discover any flaws in their foundation...

...and with both private and non-profit academic support and enrichment programs. Over the years I've taught just about every subject. I love helping students develop a positive, can-do attitude in relation to subjects that used to make them feel anxious and confused. (In my experience this is often math or standardized tests, but I also love to tutor writing and general study skills.) In my spare time I enjoy playing soccer, video games, and always...

...own abilities is the best thing a tutor can ask for. For mathematics, I've taken up to Calculus BC in high school, and Multivariable Calculus at UCR. I understand the concepts, but I can also explain them using applicable examples. Really, math is like a language; you need to know the basics before you get speaking fluently. Math can be difficult, but it can be even more fun once you get it. To me, chemistry...

...as an engineering tutor for over 50% of my high level mechanical engineering courses. I have been a teaching assistant for Circuits, Mechanics 3, and Heat Transfer courses. I am confident in classes such as Calc 3, Physics I, CAD hand drafting or PTC Creo CAD, Differential Equations, Introduction to Electronics Circuits, Engineering Math A & B, Mechanics 1, 2, & 3, Materials Science, Thermodynamics, Design of Thermal Systems, Heat Transfer, Vibrations, Dynamics and Vibrations....

...exposure has even allowed me to create my own step-by-step generalized frameworks for solving certain problems. I love tutoring: I love that aha-moment when a student finally grasps a tough or abstract concept, and I love being part of that process. I try to explain concepts in unorthodox ways: a student loves business? We can apply math to profit-maximization problems. Physics? Applying math to moving particles is incredibly intuitive. Math is beautiful in that it...

...jazz bass, piano, and music theory to younger students. Experience in these different teaching environments has helped me cultivate a teaching style that identifies how to teach each individual student based on their learning style and personality. While working with students on topics from math to music theory to test prep, I hope to draw on my multidisciplinary background to effectively give each student a solid understanding of the subject matter at hand. Overall I...

...chapter, and many more. Recently I have used my involvement in my new startup promotion company, Bass Brian Events, to explore my top interest of being involved on the business side of the music industry. I have always been one to follow my interests and take advantage of even the smallest opportunities, a combination of attributes that continues to put me in optimum positioning for being involved in the things I am passionate about.... I believe...

...what kind of assistance is helpful (and what kind of assistance/teaching is not). I think this--empathizing with a student and knowing the difference between good and bad help--is the most important quality of a good tutor. And just as importantly, I will work hard to tailor each tutoring session to the student's needs. I know that everyone's learning style is different, and I view it as my responsibility to cater to the student's strengths while...

...students develop the study skills and habits that are imperative to success later in their academic careers. Through my four years of tutoring, I have developed the ability to mold my tutoring style around however the student learns best whether that be visually, through examples, etc. This allows me to provide an individualized tutoring session to each person I tutor. I believe no two students should be tutored the same was; every student has different...

...them improve and succeed. I like to make learning fun and strive to make the information relatable to my students. This way we can become excited about the subjects which makes learning that much easier. Mostly I am interested in tutoring math and math-related subjects including economics. Throughout sessions I will always try to convey exactly how important it is to learn the information, because like it or not, even if the student is not...

Hey guys, I'm a current student in college right now. I love finance and business and am always willing to talk about anything related.

...had extensive experience tutoring. I tutored writing/essay editing and SAT prep for a year, as well as high school math for a semester. Furthermore, I participated in a week-long Spring Break tutoring program in New Orleans, where I tutored 3rd and 4th grade students in math. Lastly, I spent a month teaching computer literacy to health workers in rural Togo in the summer of 2013. I find tutoring to be an extremely rewarding experience. I...

...Boston, MA. I am passionate about teaching and enjoy helping students prepare and succeed in academics. I especially enjoy helping students study for standardized tests. A lot of high school is spent prepping for college and with proper instruction anyone can get into the college of their dreams. I believe that I can help students achieve their goals. In addition to standardized test preparation my passions lie in public speaking and management. Beyond academics I...

I am a student at Cornell University proficient in both humanities and STEM subjects.

...tell great stories and (hopefully) increase the level of knowledge among the public. As a recent student myself, I understand how the pressures of school can sometimes work against your innate curiosity. As a tutor, my goal is of course to help you maximize your success in school and standardized tests. But it's also (again, hopefully) to make room for curiosity, and to remind students, at least a little bit, about what can be fun...

...subject to tutor is algebra. Algebra features so many of the basic mathematical tools which become instinct in higher level math like calculus, my favorite subject to study. I have a varied repertoire of subjects which I tutor as I do consider myself a renaissance man. I bring my bold and fresh teaching approach to all subjects and students. I have experience tutoring and/or taking coursework in all subjects listed. I have worked with students...

...I held preparatory courses for the SAT and ACT standardized tests for students from various schools. I took private tutoring lessons as well as a preparatory course myself for the SAT and ACT, and I tutor students for these standardized tests by teaching them the aspects of this tutoring that I found the most helpful. This past summer, I taught a preparatory chemistry course for my high school's sophomore class and am currently tutoring high...

...write poetry, debate politics and economics, and participate in practically every nerdy endeavor possible (huge Star Wars fan!!). I love to talk and will talk your ear off if you let me! I love trying new things, exploring the city, and traveling. My teaching philosophy is that teaching is a responsibility and a privilege; I'll put 110% into teaching if you put the same effort into learning. With hard work and patience, anything is possible!

I am a focused individual who takes work seriously. I take pride in my work, so I attempt to complete any task to the best of my ability. I work well with others and follow directions easily. I am able to articulate and convey my thoughts clearly and quickly.

...a full-tuition National Merit scholarship for college. I currently have an open major but am leaning toward a degree in finance or information systems. I am fluent in Spanish thanks to a two-year mission for my church. Because of this I am now part of a Hispanic volunteer group helping children learn to read more fluently. I played rugby and football, and I love doing things outdoors, whether it be hiking, going to the lake,...
