AVAILABLE ONLY ON SATURDAYS
I am a California credentialed teacher with a master's degree in teaching and education from USC. In 2010, I earned my bachelor of science from Cal Polytechnic University San Luis Obispo. I love teaching others about this subject and want to create enthusiasm for the sciences with every student! I have 3 years of tutoring experience. Along with Biology, I am comfortable tutoring students in Chemistry.
Although I obtained my degree in Biology, I am also proficient in tutoring Chemistry, English, History, Spanish I and II, Algebra I/II, and Geometry. I am excellent at proofreading papers and teaching vocabulary in a fun and interesting way!
I also have played piano for more than 15 years, and can teach students basic or intermediate skills. I also have knowledge of musical theory. Please note, however, that I do NOT have a degree in Music or Music Theory, but am a very experienced and accomplished pianist.
My tutoring style: I want students to feel comfortable asking questions about topics they did not understand in class, so I try to make a very relaxed environment. I also want students to enjoy doing their homework, because I feel that this creates a stronger sense of confidence in the classroom. My typical student is in high school or middle school. Unfortunately, at this time I am not taking students in Elementary school.
Tutoring policies:
If we begin lessons, then you agree to the following policies I have, discussed BEFORE lessons have started.
1) Minimum time for a lesson is 1 hour. You will be charged for one hour even if the lesson less than one hour.
2) I reserve the right to change my rates at any time. You will be notified prior to the rate change, and, of course, have the option of not continuing lessons.
3) Please cancel lessons at least 24 hours in advance. If the lesson is not canceled before this period, I will charge for the ENTIRE lesson. (Ex: If lessons usually run and hour you will be charged an hour).
