Award-Winning ACT Math Tutors for Students in Glendale, AZ

...nine years of tutoring experience, tutoring students from elementary age to graduate level, as well as working with students with special needs. I particularly enjoy tutoring mathematics, biology, and helping students prepare for standardized tests. I can also tutor in writing and reading, since I have experience 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....

I've been an entrepreneur, business consultant, and faculty member for over 16 years. My credentials include being a CPA with a Juris Doctor, Master of Accountancy, and Bachelor of Science in Business. My greatest strengths are being a good listener, creating strategy, and following through. I'm empathetic, but I don't back down from excuses because I know that within every "can't" is a "can". I admire truth and transparency.

Hi Guys, I love to share my knowledge of how things work. I am an extrovert. Believe learning should be fun. I picked up a couple of degrees in engineering, business and law along the way in my career. Have some free time and want to spend it with you. Let's have fun learning!

...healthy, eclectic interest in a wide range of subject areas including Multivariable Calculus, Physics, and Film. It is also worth noting that I was able to accomplish all of this in three years, rather than four, due to my focus and success on AP tests. As for my 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...

...lab, where I had to collaborate with my colleagues to address research problems and clearly present my specific field of work to others who were less well versed in the topic. My tutoring style is based on my own educational experience. I draw on tips and tricks that teachers and professors of mine have used which really helped difficult concepts to "click" for me. Most of these techniques associate silly stories or acronyms with concepts,...

...parents' fears became a reality. As Dad had suspected, Lizzie was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. This day marked the beginning of a life-long trial for my sister, and is a day I will always remember. Seeing the training my father received in medical school come to life in our own family in the care of my sister was a pivotal experience for me. I saw a purpose to life that I hadn't seen before...

...my goal is to instill confidence in students, develop a curiosity for the world, create a fascination for the fundamentals, and imbue motivation for learning from within the learner. I believe that every person has the capacity for any subject, and that in order to unlock the key to success, each student has to look inside themselves, with possibly help from an external source (in this example, me as a tutor!). I'm very passionate, lighthearted,...

...in subjects I had taken previously. These topics have ranged from algebra, to English literature, to cell biology. However, I have decided to focus my tutoring attention solely towards PSAT/SAT/ACT prep. Getting into your dream school is a tough task. Helping students achieve their goals is the reason I have gotten into tutoring and I firmly believe I have the ability to make a difference. I have always been a laid back, patient person and...

Hello, My name is Jake. I am currently getting my Masters in Secondary Education from Grand Canyon University. I am currently pursuing a career in teaching middle and early high school math. I believe that math is not just numbers, but a way to see and interpret the living world. I have experience teaching and tutoring in China, Thailand, Vietnam, and the US. I am also qualified to teach English as a Second Language. ... Students...

...has also imbued me with a knack for creativity in coming up with individual lesson plans tailored to fit each unique student. Depending on their particular needs, background, and learning style, I come up with creative solutions to make the material relevant and engaging. Whether through analogies, drawn explanations, or useful anecdotes, I strive to create material that inspires a passion for the subject matter in each student. If you're looking for an experienced tutor...

...my goal to make all the material relevant and interesting. I want my students to be as excited as me to learn each and every class. While I currently teach college students professionally, I still really enjoy tutoring younger students. I have worked with students from kindergarten all the way to 12th grade, teaching math, computers, English, and Spanish. I look forward to my time working with students and will do everything I can to...

...tutoring and have become intensely passionate about helping students love school as much as I do. Outside of academia, I am passionate about soccer. I played soccer at Mesa Community College and club soccer at Arizona State University. Now I play in an adult co-ed league and coach middle school soccer, high school soccer, and club soccer. Ultimately, I would like to become a soccer coach for either a college or a professional team.

...to me for a single session or we meet every week for a semester, I believe the first step to success with tutoring is to work together to set clear expectations. This lets us work toward the same goal, and makes it simple to set milestones to get there. Any problem area in any subject can be broken into smaller and smaller pieces, until suddenly you realize there was never a problem to begin with.

...tutoring again. I believe that all students learn a little differently, and though schools try their best they can't account for every learning style. My goal is to adapt my instruction to each student's preferences in order to help them as much as I can. In my free time, I like to play ice hockey (or just skate), knit, do yoga, and read, especially epic fantasy (I may or may not have all the Lord...

...from the University of Wisconsin - Madison and 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. This experience coupled with my passion for Math and Science sparked my interest in becoming a tutor. In my free time, I enjoy playing and watching sports, reading books, and watching movies. I look...

...about problem solving. I think it's amazing what you can discover with calculus, so I love helping students be a part of that discovery. I like to guide my students to the correct answer following their line of thinking. There are different ways to get to the same answer so I like to help them find the way that makes sense to them so they will understand and remember the principle. Aside from math, I...

...educated world is a better world. If I can help with that mission in any way, I'm excited and motivated to do so. Since I was in elementary school, I was always the "go-to" girl to help others in my class. I have found that I have a natural gift for helping people feel good about themselves (kids and adults alike) and have translated that gift in my work as a tutor as well as...

...Birmingham, Alabama. I have tutored students on many occasions in a variety of subjects. My strengths, however, lie in math and science. I have worked with students of varying ages, from grade school through high school level. My greatest satisfaction is working with a student when they 'get it', understanding a concept that had been confusing or uncertain. While this can be gradual or sudden, you can really see it when it makes sense. I...

...Bachelor of Science degree from Arizona State University as a Health Sciences major. While at ASU I had the opportunity to work at the Downtown Student Success Center for two years as a supplemental instructor. Most of my students were pre-med or studying to become nurses. My favorite subject to teach was Anatomy/Physiology, but I also enjoyed most math and sciences courses especially General and Organic Chemistry. In my spare time, I enjoy competing in...
