Algebra 1 and Elementary Math tutor

About William

Hello! I am William, and I graduated from UC Berkeley with a Bachelor of Arts in Integrative Biology. I have taken classes in Biology, Human Biology, Chemistry, Math, Physics, Nutrition, Psychology, and Sociology. I have tutored students in elementary school, middle school, and high school. I have taught lab courses in college, and created presentations, taught specific lessons, created workshops and tutorials, and held office hours to answer any student questions. I have also worked with students in after school programs and provided homework assistance, led reading sessions, discussed healthy nutrition habits, and organized sports competitions and physical activity programs. Specific subjects that I teach include elementary school math, Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, Nutrition, and Physiology. To help students understand their class material, I have drawn diagrams, drafted study sheets, created extra practice problems, and taught problem-solving methods with step-by-step explanations. I have taken Math and Nutrition classes in both high school and college, and as a student athlete, I stay updated with scientific studies in nutrition to ensure that the concepts I learn and teach stay relevant and correct. To ensure students understand nutrition concepts, I have helped students make flashcards to memorize key terms, clarified common nutrition myths and misconceptions, and monitored my students’ diet and nutritional intake in order to make suggestions and personalized meal tips.

During my time in school, I realized that great teachers play huge roles in helping students enjoy different subjects and do well inside and outside the classroom. A great teacher is knowledgeable, makes time to help students and answer questions, and can make the hardest subject extremely easy to understand. Therefore, my teaching method focuses on making the content relatable and planning lessons in accordance with specific learning styles. My main goal is to help students learn their class material, get better grades, and apply learning strategies to everything they do in order to be successful not only in classes, but also in life. I am easy to reach and will reply to tutoring inquiries or requests quickly. Your success and performance in school is my main priority. Feel free to contact me with any questions or to schedule a session!
