Algebra 1
I have mentored Students in College Algebra at USC, LMU, Lafayette University, SMC, WLAC (and others) and High school Algebra 1, Algebra 2 and CAHSEE, including Brentwood School,Beverly Hills High School, MaryMount High school,Santa Monica High School, Milken Community High school, Pacific Palisades High School,South Pasadena High,Culver City High school and seen their grades jump from "D"s to "A"s. Some have gone on to receive awards and recognition in Math graduating with honors and moving on to colleges. We have covered variables,equations,functions,solving systems of linear equations using matrices and determinants;graphing of polynomial functions, logarithmic functions, binomial probability and counting.

In addition to handdrafting and model building for restaurant projects in palm springs.I recently assisted a UCLA Architecture student through WyzAnt with her studio work that involved case studies for a Japanese garden inspired library in Huntington Park.
Biostatistics
I have in the past assisted a Naval Officer complete her Biostatistics Courses for her MPH (Walden University) that involved hypothesis testing and descriptive statistics for the impacts of various diseases such as bacterial tuberculosis. Also this Fall (2011) I assisted through WyzAnt a PhD Nursing Student(College Instructor) complete portions of her dissertations for Biostatistics Data analysis that involved setting up variables for SPSS and responding to needs assessment questions with qualitative variables for her dissertations on elder care.
Calculus
We have worked with USC students helping them excel in their Calculus courses including Math 118 Calculus for business Majors.In addition I have assisted some Pacific Palisades High students and Beverly Hills high students succeed in AP Calculus and some Engineering students(LMU,Cal State) on their differential and Integral Calculus courses including homeworks,test prep,quizzes,study skills,anxiety reduction and Finals prep.
Physics
I have assisted graduate students in physics mechanics, electromagnetics and optics for GRE and consistently worked with UCLA students in physics 6A,6B,6C applying elements of calculus to solve equations of motion,energy,electricity and waves.In addition I have worked with Dental School bound Biology and Chemistry majors complete Calculus based physics 37,38 and 39.
SPSS
This past year I assisted a UCLA Phd student in Neurology with her Statistics courses focusing on data interpretation under multivariate ANOVA for her dissertations study involving Incontinence in seniors. This covered data input and processing through SPSS;and have assisted Graduate students including MBA(USC),MPH(Walden University),MPA,Phd in Nursing,Phd in Industrial Organization,Phd in Education(Pepperdine University) and Phd in Psychology(Santa Barbara Graduate Institute) with their SPSS for data analysis and dissertation writing through WYZANT.
Statistics
This past year I assisted a Pepperdine University Phd in Education student with his Statistics courses focusing on data interpretation under multivariate ANOVA for his dissertations study involving academic performance for various age groups of students.This was on data input and processing through SPSS.Also every school year I have continuously assisted through WYZANT USC students with Statistics(BUAD 310)applied business statistics;MATH 113 SMC statistics and UCLA stats 10 introduction to statistical reasoning.
