Experience
I was a volunteer online computer science tutor for Saddleback College where I helped students with their labs and assignments. I was also an in class Trigonometry tutor at Irvine Valley College (IVC) where I aided students in the class with their worksheets. Currently at IVC, I work in the math center where I help students with varying levels of math prepare for exams and conceptually understand their assignments. Off campus, I privately tutor two siblings in algebra and geometry. They have seen a whole letter grade increase from one semester to the next.
Teaching Methodology
I like to see what level of understanding a student has. If it is at level 0, I start with a concept I know they understand and build on the concept they understand until their confusion slowly disappears. I like to have them complete a problem on their own before I begin helping them. If they get stuck I might give a hint just so they reach the finish line. Once they complete a problem, I have them explain their steps if I notice a mistake. This usually results in them seeing their own mistake before I mention it. If I ask them a conceptual question and they answer it wrong I have them explain their logic and try to correct it. To me, a conceptual misunderstanding is the most serious kind of misunderstanding so I have to reach the core of their misunderstanding.

I highly respect Tasha and definitely ask her for feedback & teaching suggestions often because I fully trust her. Also, she speaks Spanish! She is extremely intelligent and some day she's going to be one of the most successful teachers in her district. Thank you for everything you do for our children. We couldn't be more grateful.

Jad, the tutor I work with that is an associate of this company, is tremendous. Hands down best tutor I have ever had. Very knowledgeable of a multitude of math subjects and is pretty much always available! Has helped me pass all my college math courses! Lifesaver! He's also a really great guy! Highly recommend him and this company! Great all around!

It was a hectic Sunday, and my son was struggling with coding which is a language I am not familiar with. I luckily stumbled on TutorNerds and Adam was able to connect us with a fantastic teacher. I cannot express my gratitude enough for Mark for his exceptional skills and extraordinary care for my son. I have never seen my son so elevated after a tutorial. I am glad I stumbled upon this place and look forward to using them for many more years! Thank you, Adam and Mark, for making a difference! You guys are amazing! If you are looking for a tutor, I HIGHLY recommend trying TutorNerds, from my experience so far this place is a gem!

Getting my child help with her school work was a real struggle for me. Having a tutor that I could rely on was the biggest difference. We are so happy with Janelle from TutorNerds. They are highly recommended for any little ones that need some extra help.

I am very impress so far with TutorNerds. Brandy was very helpful and responsive when I was first asking questions about the services TutorNerds had to offer. She was able to pair my son with Sydney who is incredibly sweet, friendly and patient. She is helping my son who just started the 7th grade with homework help and building his confidence. My family was so happy with their services that my nephew has started tutoring with Sydney as well. I would 100% recommend TutorNerds.

Physics

There are no words to express how thankful I am for TutorNerds! I called them last semester when I was panicking over my "F" in my intro to symbolic logic college course. Thankfully, they were able to send Brandy over as my tutor. We worked diligently for two months, and I mastered a course I never thought I stood a chance in.

I was recommended here by a class mate, and I'm so glad I followed through. I was struggling to keep up with the material in class and I knew I needed some extra one on one time to really understand the material. Ramin has been so helpful with each chapter and going over the practice midterm. I went from getting C's on test to A's. I highly recommend this as an investment into yourself and your education, versus failing classes. He is patient but will also push you to do better every time! Thank you Ramin!

TutorNerds is an amazing tutoring service! I can't speak highly enough about them. Farzan has been an incredible help to my daughter in math and science. He is able to explain things in a way that she understands and is so patient, friendly and kind. It has made such a difference for her and he always makes time when she needs help. We appreciate him so much and highly recommend Tutor Nerds for their exceptional tutoring and customer service.

Tutor Nerds are the BEST!! I was desperate to find someone to help me with my college Statistics class, so at the suggestion of a friend I contacted Adam at Tutor Nerds. The demand is high at this time of year for tutoring assistance since the semester is coming to an end, but Adam was quick to find an appropriate tutor for me. Steven was helpful for one session but was unable to continue due to his own studies. Adam B. was then scheduled to meet with me. He is SO smart, and kind, and patient and was actually able to help me understand this very complex subject. I passed the class! THANKS, Tutor Nerds. I'm getting closer to my goal of obtaining my BS degree in nursing. I HIGHLY recommend Tutor Nerds and will happily give their name as a referral to friends and colleagues who need assistance with their studies--specifically statistics.

If you are doubting about getting a tutor with Tutornerds do not hesitate any longer and go for it! I can honestly say that my experience overall with this amazing company and amazing tutor Andrew has been 10 out of 10. Andrew is a great teacher and he is pretty much a human calculator. I am so happy....I am right on track to receive the grade I really wanted in my College Algebra/Pre Calculus class. Tutornerds has helped me learn the material, finish all of my homework and prepare for the exams. My GPA is going to be where it needs to be and I am so thankful.
