Carefully selected, highly-credentialed Math tutors in McKinney, TX
"I especially love using hands-on materials or physical activity to help the learning sink-in and stick. My priority is to not only teach the student, but to get to know the student so I can be a more effective teacher. I recently graduated with my Elementary Education degree and I am so anxious to put what I learned to work. I also love being outdoors and being active."

"My teaching license focuses in the areas of prekindergarten through fourth grade and working with ESL students, and I can also provide assistance in higher math areas as well as in grammar and mechanics. Since high school I have worked with students of all ages in various subjects, particularly elementary students in reading and math and middle school to high school students in math and grammar and mechanics. While at the University of Arkansas during my graduate degree program, I completed a one-year internship at a local elementary school with three placements: third grade for nine weeks, first grade for 18 weeks, and kindergarten ...

"Tutoring students has become such a rewarding job opportunity that I continue to seek tutoring opportunities wherever I can. I’ve enjoyed tutoring Plano students at Renner Middle School, Schimelpfenig Middle School, Clark High School, and Plano East Senior High School. I teach middle school math (including Algebra) and sciences, as well as physics and a variety of high school and college math material (see my subjects list for more). Every student is different. I can help with your learning process because I've been going through it, too, for the last 10+ years." ...

" Often I have been enlisted to assist others with studying math at all levels and occasionally other subjects. In general I find that the best aspect of tutoring is that the typical one-to-one nature is the ultimate in small class size, allowing for full attention to be given to the individual. In part because of my set of eclectic interests, I find all interests to be equally valuable and play some role in society, small however it may be. (There is some intrigue in just about everything!) For standardized tests like the SAT and ACT, knowing the strategies for the test is often as important as being able to determine the answer. The structure of ...

"Ever since I was a young girl, I have enjoyed learning math and science. I love solving puzzles and various math and science problems were just like puzzles for me. I began watching shows like CSI and Law and Order and found myself intrigued by forensic science. Since then, I have been working towards a job in that field."

"I owe so much of my motivation and passion to pursue a career in medicine to my teachers and mentors, who taught me to value and appreciate education, which I do very highly. I have had the opportunity over the last ten years to give back by serving as a tutor and mentor to others. I've worked with children and adolescents of all ages, from kindergarten to high school and everything in between. My aim thus far has been to inspire these students not only to take on the challenge of learning, but to also enjoy the process however difficult it may be." ...

"At Austin College I developed such a thirst for knowledge and experimentation that I could not constrict my major coursework to one discipline. A fusion of my love for neuroscience, biology, psychology, mathematics, and physics blended me into a student who is driven to work in interdisciplinary studies. During my senior year I worked as a Calculus tutor and felt fulfilled while helping others master complicated concepts. I love teaching others and I practice inspiring enthusiasm in students every day at the science museum where I work." ...

"Seeing my students reach their full academic potential has been the most rewarding experience in my life and is what motivated me to join the Varsity Tutors team and to utilize my knowledge and experience outside of my classroom. While I enjoy working with younger students, I also feel confident teaching college level courses, as well as, helping students with their GMAT and SAT tests prep. In 2009, I graduated from Northwestern University with a double major in Economics and International Relations and a minor in Political Science, and next year I will be attending Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies. I’m very ...

"After graduating from high school in Dallas, I went pretty much everywhere. I went to undergrad at the University of Michigan and graduate school at George Washington in Washington, D.C.; and, along the way I also visited close to 50 different countries across 5 continents. Despite my addiction to travel, the women in my family convinced me to move back home, and I'm happy to be back in Dallas and ready to be at your service! At times I wonder if I'm also addicted to standardized tests because I feel like I'm always taking a test for something and have just given up on the idea that one day I won't have to take more tests. In addition to this ...

"In addition, I worked as a teaching assistant for one of the engineering analysis courses here at UT- Arlington for three semesters. As an engineering student, I have had to work with math and physical sciences on a practical level. 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 ...
