Hi! My name is Jackson, and I am a passionate and dedicated Chemistry and Mathematics tutor with a degree from the prestigious University of Nairobi. Over the past four years, I have honed my teaching expertise through online tutoring, I have had the privilege of helping numerous students achieve academic excellence in these challenging subjects. Throughout my tutoring career, I have fostered a student-centric approach, tailoring my teaching methods to cater to individual learning styles and preferences. I am patient, empathetic, and adept at identifying areas where students may need extra assistance, providing them with the guidance they need to excel. In the realm of chemistry, I cover a wide range of topics, from the fundamental principles of the subject to advanced concepts in organic, inorganic, and physical chemistry. My students appreciate my ability to break down complex theories and equations into manageable components, demystifying the subject and instilling a deeper understanding. On the other hand, mathematics, often seen as intimidating, is an area where I strive to build students' confidence and problem-solving abilities. By breaking down abstract concepts into simpler components and guiding learners step-by-step, I have witnessed significant improvements in my students' mathematical skills and grades. One of my key strengths as a tutor is my ability to create a supportive and encouraging learning environment. I understand that grasping challenging concepts can be daunting, so I make it a point to be patient, approachable, and understanding. I encourage my students to ask questions, engage in discussions, and develop critical thinking skills. Guided by a genuine passion for teaching and a desire to make a positive impact on the lives of my students, I am committed to empowering learners and fostering a love for these critical subjects in the hearts of those I teach.

I am currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Political Science at UCLA and have a strong background in English, History, and Japanese. I am also proficient in K-8 math and science and have previous tutoring experience in these subjects. My experience includes both one-on-one and classroom settings, as well as volunteer experience. In English, I have a deep passion for language and literature, and I am fully proficient in both written and spoken English. I have completed two semester-long research projects that required me to analyze and synthesize complex texts and communicate my findings effectively in writing and speech. My skills in critical thinking and analysis, combined with my ability to communicate complex ideas clearly, make me an effective tutor for students of all levels. In History, I have been nominated for an award by my high school teacher for my exceptional performance and passion for the subject. I have experience creating engaging presentations on historical topics and enjoy exploring different cultures and time periods through the lens of history. As a tutor, I can help students improve their research skills, develop a deeper understanding of historical events, and prepare for exams with confidence. In Japanese, my experience attending Japanese heritage schools for 10 years, tutoring students in Japanese language during Japanese club, and being fully proficient in hiragana, katakana, and kanji has given me a deep appreciation for the intricacies of Japanese language and culture. As a tutor, I can help students master the basics of Japanese language, develop cultural competency, and gain a greater appreciation for the rich history and traditions of Japan. Overall, my combination of educational background, previous tutoring/teaching experience, and contextual details such as the ages of students and the setting of my teaching experience make me an ideal candidate for tutoring in English, History, and Japanese, as well as K-8 math and science.
