Hi there! My name is Xin :) As a tutor of 2+ years, I excel at offering tailored and compassionate service focused on developing student confidence and a strong foundation in a series of subjects. With me, a student can feel free to ask questions repeatedly until they've developed a solid understanding as demonstrated by being able to explain concepts in their own words and applying them to different examples. I have experience guiding Lowell High School students in Algebra 1 and 2, Geometry, AP Statistics, writing, and all levels of Chinese. I've also passed 13 AP exams and am confident to tutor a breadth of college-level courses. At UC

Hi all! My name is Edwyn I have been tutoring high school and college-level students in writing composition and essay writing for 5 years now. I worked at De Anza and UC Berkeley helping students in the English and philosophy department. I help students tease out poor writing habits, develop efficient essay strategies, and help to refine their writing voice for clearer and more successful writing. It's a joy to work with students through their writing journey and help them become more independent writers.

Hi prospective students, my name is Ricky, and I have over 12 years of experience as a professional tutor. I am passionate about tutoring because it helped me achieve academic success in my own life.

I pride myself on my easygoing and effective tutoring style: being patient, encouraging, and empowering. I work with students to internalize concepts, not just memorize them. When a student begins to ...
