Carefully selected, highly-credentialed ACT Science tutors in Grand Prairie, TX
"As a certified teacher, I have had the opportunity to take part in a wide variety of enlightening professional development seminars, such as Garland Writes!, which focused on best practices in teaching writing, the UTD AP English Institute, and the St. Mark’s Institute.
However, the years of experience and certificates do not truly define my tutoring experience. The most important aspect of tutoring is the relationship between student and teacher, which I believe should be built on sincerity and respect."

" AmeriCorps is a lot like the Peace Corps, only volunteers stay in the US and work for a variety of independent charities and organizations. I worked for The University of Chicago Center for Urban School Improvement – an initiative of the university to bolster education in some of the city’s lowest achieving schools. During the school day I served as a Literacy Tutor for students in Kindergarten through 3rd grade. I also provided homework help and math and literacy tutoring for K-8 students in an after-school program."

"Rather than just learning the theory behind courses like calculus, differential equations, and mechanics, I've had to actually apply these concepts to real world problems. Because of this, I have developed a better understanding of how to approach difficult math problems and how to make them easier using tips and tricks. In addition to working with college engineering students, I also taught high school mathematics, physics, and chemistry to 8th and 9th graders for two summers with the Duke University Talent Identification Program. This experience was great for me because it taught me to be creative with lesson planning: I now know ...

" We play and learn. We in the western world tend to focus on the science and discipline without incorporating the language and art. As an active musician and artist, I communicate the value in fine arts relationships to mathematics. That part doesn't make the money, but it does make math a more pleasant environment for the folks who think they aren't math people."

"It was at that point that I knew I had not only the ability to help students understand, but also an obligation to share the wonderful experiences and knowledge that my journeys around the world have imparted on me. As a recent graduate of Southwestern University, where I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Spanish and Communication Studies, I feel as if I'm seeing the world with new eyes; eyes unfazed by the haze of too many sleepless nights spent studying. I find learning opportunities everywhere I go and relish the chance to have an intelligent conversation with whomever crosses my path. My teaching style is undoubtedly influenced by my ...

" While I do not have plans to return to school as a student immediately, I began to look into other venues where I could be involved in academics and help others succeed. The solution I found was to look into tutoring other students and that is how I found Varsity Tutors. My love of learning and education was instilled at a young age because both of my parents are teachers, my dad teaches Geology and my mom teaches 3rd grade. Education has always been a priority for me, and I love making ordinary, everyday events into creative learning opportunities." ...

"That is why, as a tutor, I believe that it is crucial to understand instead of memorize. Although I am well-versed in many subjects, my favorite to teach are math and Mandarin. As a native Chinese speaker, I really enjoy sharing my talent with others. In addition, I am also experienced in SAT/ACT/STAAR/ISEE test prep as well as principal economics."

"
I pride myself on a personal approach to tutoring. The best teachers I have had have been those who get to know me as a person, so I make it my personal goal to develop a long-lasting relationship with my students. I tailor my tutoring sessions to fit their needs so they get the most out of their time with me. When I come to tutor, you can be sure that you are getting personalized attention with a tutor whose sole goal is your success.
I enjoy working with students of all ages."

" Soon after, in the fall of 2009, I began working with Varsity Tutors in St. Louis. Through both these tutoring roles, I had the opportunity to help students ranging from middle school aged kids to graduate students in a wide array of subjects. Though the types of students I have tutored are varied, the common theme in my tutoring experience has been empowering the student to truly learn concepts through problem solving. Based on my personal experience as both a tutor and a student, I have seen that thinking, working, and solving problems helps solidify a concept much more than simply hearing someone lecture about it." ...
