I am originally from the San Francisco Bay Area and love to travel to see other parts of the US and the world!I believe that I would be a great tutor due to my drive to succeed, my desire to see others succeed, and my ability to work well with a diverse group of people. I have had experience tutoring elementary school students in simple mathematics and want to expand upon this experience. I take pride in my academics and hope to see others succeed and enjoy learning as I have.
Maria
Medical Terminology Tutor • +8 Subjects
I graduated from an accelerated BSN program at Texas Tech University. I also have a BS in Zoology from The Ohio State University where I also completed Air Force ROTC. I served 7 years as a commissioned officer in the United States Air Force in charge of air traffic controllers and airfield management personnel. I met my husband while on active duty and after we got engaged, I separated from the Air Force and pursued my passion for nursing. I am excited to share my experience with taking the NCLEX, various study strategies that I learned while in a demanding 12-month accelerated nursing program, and my experience as a graduate nurse in a Level II trauma center. I am a big proponent of understanding the 'why' behind pathophysiology, signs, and symptoms, and nursing interventions. Trying to memorize everything is impossible and will not help you pass the NCLEX, however, if you understand the concept and pathophysiology, you can usually get the right answers and be way more successful.

I love spending time with my family, running, reading, learning my second language (Spanish), and volunteering as a coach and in my church.
Manuel
Algebra Tutor • +15 Subjects
A little bit about myself:I'm from San Juan, Puerto Rico. Currently working to earn an Industrial Engineering Degree at the University of Central Florida, Go Knights!I'm easygoing, flexible, understanding and hard working. I enjoy being challenged in my academics and expanding my knowledge on a variety of topics.High school History/Passion for teaching:Graduated from Olympia High School in 2017. My passion for teaching and tutoring started back when I was in middle school. I'm really good at Math so most days when school got out, I would reunite with my Algebra 1 teacher to help students with difficulties in the class. This is when I realized I had a passion for teaching and tutoring. My passion continued when I went on to high school as I started taking more advanced courses. Taking higher level courses allowed me to assist my peers in more complex subject areas.Subjects that I tutor:SpanishPre-AlgebraAlgebra 1I don't have any preferences when it comes to tutoring. I love to tutor any subject that I'm an expert at and give students the knowledge they deserve to have.My goal with each tutoring session is to engage the student on the material that's supposed to be learned. I expect student's to ask questions about the subject to better understand their level of knowledge in the course. I always like to start with some icebreakers to get to know my students better before jumping right into the material. I aim to create a positive and challenging learning environment for my student's. I also encourage my student's to adopt new studying habits that will allow them to succeed in more advanced courses.
Amanda
Adult Literacy Tutor • +16 Subjects
I am a graduate of the University of North Texas. I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education and have approximately 30 hours of graduate level hours in reading instruction. I have experience working as a substitute teacher, tutor, and teaching assistant in grades K-6 as well as adult learners in a large lecture class. As a tutor I have experience preparing students for the Texas state required STARR test in reading, writing, and math as well as getting them motivated and excited to learn skills that they will use to enrich rest of their life. I believe that tutoring should be fun and engaging, related to the student's interests as well as emotional and educational needs. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, creative writing, shopping, and spending time with family, friends, and my dog.
Francis
ACT Math Tutor • +14 Subjects
I graduated from The University of Michigan with a Bachelor of Science in Biology and finished a Masters in Biology at Eastern Michigan University. I enjoy helping others, which included teaching kids at my church, tutoring middle and high school students during study hall, working with youth in after school programs, helping adults who wish to improve their English, and helping friends who home school their kids. My most preferred subjects are Biology and Economics because I like knowing how things work and how people think on a larger scale. While it is important to know facts or the application of facts, I feel that learning how to learn and critical thinking are important and are built on the foundation of a trusting relationship existing between the tutor and the student. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, following professional sports, boardgames, cooking and eating.

Frequently Asked Questions
First grade science introduces students to foundational concepts across life, earth, and physical science. Common topics include living things and their habitats, seasons and weather patterns, basic properties of materials, simple machines, the five senses, and how plants and animals grow and change. The curriculum emphasizes hands-on exploration and observation skills rather than memorization, helping students develop curiosity about the natural world.
Science tutors break down abstract concepts into concrete, observable experiences. For example, instead of just reading about how plants grow, a tutor might help your child plant seeds and observe changes over time, connecting theory to real-world outcomes. Tutors also teach the scientific method—asking questions, making predictions, and testing ideas—which builds both understanding and critical thinking skills. This approach helps students move beyond memorization to truly grasp why things happen in nature.
Great first grade science tutors are patient, curious, and skilled at making learning interactive and fun. They should understand how young learners think, use age-appropriate experiments and activities, and ask open-ended questions that encourage exploration. Look for tutors who can explain concepts simply, connect lessons to things your child sees every day, and adapt their teaching style based on your child's interests—whether that's animals, weather, plants, or how things work.
Personalized science instruction means your child learns at their own pace with a tutor who can pause on confusing ideas, repeat explanations in different ways, and choose examples that match their interests. Unlike classroom settings where teachers manage many students, one-on-one tutoring allows for immediate feedback and hands-on experiments tailored to your child's learning style. This focused attention helps build confidence and a genuine curiosity about science rather than anxiety about getting the right answer.
First graders often struggle with understanding cause and effect (why does this happen?), observing carefully, and using scientific vocabulary to describe what they see. Some students also find it hard to sit still during experiments or to predict outcomes before trying something. A tutor can help by breaking these skills into smaller steps, providing plenty of opportunities to practice observing and predicting, and making experiments engaging so your child stays focused and excited about learning.
Tutors choose simple, safe experiments that produce clear, immediate results—like observing how water changes states, watching seeds sprout, or testing which materials sink or float. They guide students through each step slowly, ask questions to help them notice patterns, and encourage predictions before revealing outcomes. This hands-on approach makes abstract concepts concrete and memorable, and helps students feel like real scientists rather than passive observers.
Simple activities make great science learning: observe bugs in the garden, watch clouds change shape, plant seeds indoors, compare how different objects float or sink, or notice how shadows change throughout the day. Ask your child "why" and "what if" questions to encourage curiosity, and let them lead exploration. A tutor can suggest specific experiments and activities tailored to your child's interests and help them develop the observation and questioning skills that make home learning more meaningful.
