Carefully selected, highly-credentialed Math tutors in Grand Prairie, TX
"I am currently pursuing a degree to be a middle school math teacher at the University of North Texas. I have always wanted to be a teacher because helping others reach their goals is very rewarding. It is so wonderful to see a student’s face light up when he or she understands something I have explained.
I am the oldest of four so I have spent a lot time helping my younger siblings and their friends with their homework. It is also because of them that I realized how much I enjoy working with kids."

"I received my Bachelor’s degree in Biochemistry from Louisiana State University (summa cum laude), and my PhD in Biomedical Sciences from UT Southwestern Medical Center. My desire to tutor is primarily motivated by my parents who are lifelong teachers. Growing up, I was able to observe how noble the teaching profession is as one works with students to make them excel, and achieve further than oneself. Throughout my academic career, I have mentored several students at both the undergraduate and graduate levels, and seeing them succeed has been one of the most fulfilling experiences I have had the privilege to enjoy." ...
