...your passion for the subject and make it relatable to the student's own interests and passions. I've found these approaches to be really effective in my years as a teaching assistant, student success coach, and educator.

I...

...it was the only subject that made sense to me at the time since I did not speak English. Over the years, I have found passion for science as well.

...have several years of tutoring experience, ranging from adult literacy courses for elderly refugees, to standard academic tutoring for middle school, high school, and undergraduate students.

Someday, I want to work in academia, both out of my love for learning new...

...all of these subjects, but I understand they can be hard to a lot of student without one on one help. That's where I come in. I tutor math, science, social studies, reading comprehension, and test prep so that I can bring my passion for learning to students who aren't getting the help they need in the classroom. I have experience tutoring students from 13 to college age in math and science, and I'm looking...

...moved to Arizona in August, 2014. From my experience teaching swimming and skiing lessons in High School, I not only found that I enjoyed teaching, but I was also very good at it.

I have experience tutoring a freshman in high school in Pre-Algebra and Biology and have experience teaching students of all grade levels Nutrition.

...about helping students to find success in their classes and in their lives. We all learn differently, and having the ability to explore our learning styles through additional help has always been a passion of mine. I am one both ends of the teaching world, where I teach students read and write who are not up to grade-level standards, and I teach AP classes and prepare students for college. My favorite thing is to see...

...to see so many wonderful "aha" moments in my students! I love the feeling of helping a young learner gain confidence and independence in their learning skills and subject matter. My personal philosophy is that any subject can be fun, we just have to figure out how to make it so! My personal style is to use what the learner is interested in to make the subject more fun!

Understanding how logistics works and how interconnected everything is fascinates me. But as I got my start in mathematics, I try to relate everything to teachable theories that breakdown into simple facts. My tutoring style is often based on this approach. Everything is related as long as you are able...

I'm here to help you get through those tough stretching or even frustrating moments, so that you can come to find for yourself how enjoyable and valuable learning really is. Thank you for your desire to learn and improve, and I hope I'll...

...out in all math or science areas. When working with students, I think it's very important to understand that everyone has strengths and weaknesses. I want each session to be a positive and enjoyable experience and have the student leave thinking, "I really understand this much better, and maybe it wasn't so hard after all." If I can do that and instill confidence in my student, I consider it to be a job well done.
