Award-Winning ACT Tutors in Gilbert, AZ

...as a professional copy editor. My focus when tutoring is student understanding. I believe academic goals are more readily achievable when concepts are understood, rather than formulas memorized. When helping students prepare for standardized tests I focus on taking practice exams and working with students on the areas they need the most help. Outside of school I enjoy hiking, gardening, reading, and cooking. I like to explore new ways of doing things and being outside....

...specific tutoring experience, I have been teaching students since high school, and volunteering with local children of lower socioeconomic status for the past three years. These lessons have been for students of all ages ranging from elementary school to college.

I have always been a laid back, patient person and my time working at a medical clinic has helped me develop the capacity to effectively communicate complex information to others.

They just are all different in how they learn, as well as the speed at which...

...my favorite subjects to tutor would have to be MCAT Biological sciences and Life Sciences. These subjects are near and dear to me as I recently (2011) took the MCAT exam for entrance into medical school and my undergraduate major was in Life Sciences.

...that my lifelong dream of being an astronaut was not really what I wanted to do. I had always had a passion for music, and was a good trumpet player, and with a little nudging from my College Band Director, well, the road definitely took a right turn. In 2002 I moved to Phoenix where I took my second teaching job in the Glendale Union High School District at Washington High School. While at WHS...

...making sure they are in a comfortable and safe learning environment. I love to think outside the box when it comes to planning lessons, applying student interests and hobbies when possible. This act gives each lesson my personal touch. I believe communication is key when building that student-teacher bond. The more communication there is, the more trust is earned. If the student is able to feel safe, share ideas and trust in their abilities the...

Tutoring is such a rewarding experience for me because I...
