Private Tutoring By Kristi
About
I have been working as a teacher/tutor for the last 10 years. I have a BS degree in Chemical Engineering from San Jose State University. I am comfortable in tutoring math courses of all levels up through Calculus I, as well as Physics, and Chemistry as well as most pre-Engineering courses (ex: Statics, Circuit Analysis, Stength of Materials, Thermodynamics, and Material Science).
I enjoy the interaction I have with my students.
