About Jessica

I am a college student studying economics and political science. I was top in my class in high school, and I was also homeschooled for a few years. I have top scores on the SAT.
My previous tutoring experience is mostly in math: elementary addition through high school Algebra 2. I have also helped unofficially in science, especially biology and anatomy.
As a tutor, I like to tailor my style to the student's needs. I prefer to work with existing homework if the student is in school because I see extra busy work as undesirable unless the student needs it. When explaining concepts, especially in math, I try to teach the student why things work the way they do instead of giving formulas because it helps to build a critical thinking ability that is necessary for almost all classes.

More On Jessica's Subjects

elementary (k-6th)

I have taught elementary age math, history, and english. My experience also includes teaching children with learning disabilities and gifted students who perform beyond their age level. My math subjects include addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, long division, fractions, and decimals. My history subjects include American history, California history and missions, local Saratoga/Los Gatos area history, world history, and ancient history. My English subjects include basic reading, sentence formation, phonics, writing sentences, writing basic essays, grammar, vocabulary, and spelling. I have experience working with children from 2 years old to sixth grade. I was a teacher's assistant at a local elementary school in junior high and high school. I am able to teach students in a way that they understand, adapting my teaching methods to the child's personal needs.
