Carefully selected, highly-credentialed Chemistry tutors in Oro Valley, AZ
"It is one thing to have the right answer but it is altogether something else for them to know why they know the answer. I am aware of the various students learning levels and their learning style which will only improve my ability to tutor.
I have found I truly love to help to succeed in any way that I can. I truly believe that anyone can understand math and science. In fact, math and science are perfectly intuitive and logical, as long as it is explained well!
In my free time I enjoy spending time with my dog and quilting."

"Teaching and education is something that I consider extremely important. It is because of a few good teachers that I am where I am today. As a graduate student at the U of A, I have taught a number of different chemistry labs ranging from general chemistry to senior level physical chemistry. I put a lot of work into my teaching because I believe that a good teacher makes a huge difference in how people learn."

"I currently work for the University of Arizona as an Undergraduate Resident, where I design and teach courses in English and Creative Writing. As a teacher, I try to develop unique approaches for every student and have successfully worked with many student issues including hearing impairment, dyslexia, time management, and test anxiety. In all my time as an instructor, I have never failed to help a student achieve a better understanding of the material and overall course performance. I focus on the fundamentals and am a firm believer in teaching students new ways of thinking and problem solving so that they learn to teach themselves and ...

"My name is Eric and I currently work at the University of Arizona as a law library fellow while I am pursuing a MA in Library Science. As an undergrad, I obtained a BS from Harvey Mudd College in Mathematical Physics and worked as an engineer at a nuclear power plant before going to law school.
I am experienced with math and science and have a knack for explaining complex concepts fairly simply. I enjoy teaching and tutoring and look forward to working with you to achieve academic success.."

" As a graduate student teaching assistant, I have worked extensively in the classroom. My experience ranges from delivering lectures and helping students understand important scientific concepts to working with students on a one-on-one basis. Many of the students I have worked with are non-science majors and finding a way to explain difficult scientific concepts to individual students is something I find rewarding. I have helped students who were anxious about scientific concepts and mathematics become comfortable with these concepts and I have helped outstanding students to achieve their goals in the classroom." ...

"I believe I have a talent for communicating ideas and information in various ways to help others learn. I recognized this skill in my junior year of college, when I took non-traditional organic chemistry. This course differed from standard organic chemistry classes in that it was based on small (4-person) groups of students who taught each other the science that they needed to know, with lectures given only once a week. For both semesters, I led my group, initiating discussions and figuring out answers to others' questions."

"
During my training I taught biology and chemistry in middle schools and high schools, and after earning my Ph.D. degree I gave lectures at undergraduate and graduate level courses.
Having been trained as a teacher I have a passion for sharing my knowledge with students. Some may find the complexity of biology and chemistry intimidating, but I think everyone has an innate curiosity and drive for understanding our natural world."

"I have worked as an ACT preparation instructor for the Tucson GEAR Up Project, which is a college readiness program for high school students in the Tucson community. As an ACT prep instructor, I helped high school students prepare for the ACT college entrance exam by leading workshops in order to provide them with strategies and practice to succeed on the test. In addition, I have been an undergraduate preceptor for General Chemistry at the University of Arizona. As a preceptor, I helped students understand the material presented during lecture, and provided my assistance to them during tutor hours to aid them in the completion of their ...

"Many of my students have given positive feedback in course evaluations and have indicated that they enjoy my teaching style and appreciate my use of real world examples to strengthen their understanding of basic chemical principles. In addition, I feel that I pay great attention to my students so that I can quickly identify when there is a lack of understanding and can adapt my explanation with additional examples until I am confident that the student fully understands the topic. My experience tutoring math and chemistry includes working with students of all ages from elementary to graduate level. In my opinion, confidence is key when ...
