Fun Facts

I am a very talkative person. When gathering with friends, I am always the one that is nonstop talking. My reputation as a big talker was cemented in elementary school. In the classroom, I always take the initiative to answer questions; whenever I know the answers to a problem, I always raise my hands high up in the air, never giving up until the teacher called my name. This trait has been my typical 'label' for years, and I hope I can find a job relate to talking.

About Me

I am master of engineering candidate in chemical engineering at Cornell University. My current cumulative GPA at graduate school is 3.80 and I am on the Dean's Honor List. I will graduate in May 2015. I had my college at UCLA, also in chemical engineering major. My undergraduate GPA was 3.60. I enjoy the sunshine at LA very much, so I hope I can find a full-time tutor position at LA.

Experience

My first tutor job was a one-on-one online TOEFL tutor in 2009, during which I had opportunity to introduce my personal experience and test tactics to my students. I designed study plan for each student according to their starting level. After entering college, I found a part-time SATII-Chemistry tutor position, which allows me to help more students. Working for Frog Tutoring will give me the opportunity to assist more and more student to achieve their success.

Approach

As a student grown up in China, I am a test-pro who have extensive test experience, useful tactics, and efficient test prepare approach. I would like to introduce all these experience to my students. Certainly, as a tutor with solid professional knowledge, I will teach students knowledge correctly with passion and patience. Maybe teaching the solution to problem is easy, but interpreting the thoughts and study skill behind it to students is my most important responsibility.
