Award-Winning ACT Science Tutors in Tempe, AZ

...developed a keener sense for the hurdles that students sometimes face when learning, as well as the most efficient ways to overcome them. I also developed more patience and empathy through tutoring - I often remembered feeling the same confusion about a topic that my students were feeling the first time I had learned the material. The skills and perspective I developed through this tutoring experience have certainly made me a better educator.

...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. I like to try to strike a good balance between learning, working, and enjoying...

...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. In high school I also excelled on the SAT (2220) and a plethora of AP tests (4s and 5s across the board), and so would be happy to aid with any test prep you may need. I am a very amicable person, and truly think that I could have...

...be gradual or sudden, you can really see it when it makes sense. I also enjoy helping students prepare for Standardized Tests. My goal is to help them advance, while keeping the material interesting. It is also my hope that I can help students reduce the stress they may feel when preparing to take these tests. I believe that if you continue to learn throughout your life, you will always be growing. In my spare...

...still, it isn't perfect. People learn in different ways, and sitting in a classroom isn't always going to allow for optimal learning conditions. That's where I come in. By tutoring, myself and others are able to directly work with individuals until comprehension, understanding, and eureka moments abound. I am personally most interested in languages, math, history, literature, music, all forms of art, scientific investigation of the universe, and games which allow for a creative and...

...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. I enjoy engaging with students and helping to lead them to the correct answer and understanding of concepts through a question and answer process. Outside of school I love to hike, bike, and golf. You can typically find me outdoors on a day off!... I love...

...- 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 forward to meeting and helping...

...the subject material was the best way to encourage and motivate students for long term success. As a tutor, 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...

Whether you come 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...

...community of laser enthusiasts. Together, we construct circuitry, design housings, and align lenses to create not laser pens for pets, but high-powered, scientific lab lasers. While studying at ASU, I regularly worked with fellow students on mathematics and physics problems that they found challenging. In high school, I tutored a middle school student weekly in organizational and homework skills, mathematics, and science. Because of my specialty in math and physics, I am most comfortable tutoring...

...part of tutoring is helping others express themselves, and my methods get results. I have had many students come back to me again and again to help them with assignments due to the positive feedback they have received on assignments I've helped them with. I also have firsthand experience as a test-taker, having taken the ACT, PSAT, SAT, LSAT, and GRE and received above 90th percentile marks on all of them. I'm happy to share...

...classes as part of my membership in the Institute of Industrial Engineers during my years in college, and have worked in an elementary school environment where my duties as a technology coordinator occasionally required me to instruct students. For me, the biggest thrill in any job is visibly seeing that "light bulb moment" as someone crosses the boundary between confusion and understanding. Thank you for taking the time to consider me for your tutor, and...

...my four years in high school that connected high school tutors with peers, middle school students, and potentially students from an underfunded local elementary school in attempts to make academic help more accessible. I tutored in a number of different math classes at the time. In college, I worked with a tutoring agency to teach 6-12 year old student Python, Java, Scratch, and Web Development. My goal is to help you learn concepts and solve...

...how the world around us worksfrom why the sky is blue, to why we resemble our parents. I enjoy working with all types of studentswhether they do not particularly enjoy the subject, or are driven from the get go. My teaching style is creative, engaging, and goal oriented. I like to get to know my students and their ambitions, and work with them where they are at to achieve mastery. Other than science, I am...

...to accounting. Test prep is a strong area for me, as I like to focus on the patterns and trends that come up in standardized tests. If you are looking for a tutor that will go at your desired pace and will work at your level, I am a good fit for you. I have tutored students from the elementary school age up to the graduate school level. In my free time, I love watching...

...on a full ride scholarship. During high school and college, I worked as a tutor and Preceptor for a number of courses including Spanish, Introductory Biology, Anatomy, Physiology, Biostatistics, and Youth Leadership and Development. This Fall I will be attending the University of Arizona's Phoenix campus to pursue my MD/MPH with a concentration in Public Health Practice. My unique background and experiences allowed me to develop a passion for learning and educating and I am...

...others. I don't believe there's such a thing as being unteachable. It just takes the right kind of teacher to reach even the most difficult student and that's what I am. Having lived in three continents, I have gained experience in working with people from diverse cultures which is an asset with regards to communicating and understanding people from different walks of life. I am a biochemist by profession. I obtained my biochemistry degree at...

I believe in teaching so that my student learns the material in a way he/she is comfortable with. Anyone can impart knowledge but a good teacher imparts knowledge in the most compatible way so that the student doesn't just learn, the student will understand.

...like anatomy and physiology. I enjoy finding ways to tutor that relate to the student so dry topics like the order of operations can be easier to remember. I believe that math and science are key in getting further in education, which in itself is invaluable. Due to my background in math, I am very comfortable tutoring pre-algebra, algebra I, algebra II, geometry, and industrial engineering as needed. In addition, I am strongly suited to...

Hey! I'm a rising sophomore at Georgia Institute of Technology. I love teaching and got a lot of practice from tutoring my brother. Physics is probably my favorite subject to teach. In my spare time, I produce music and play/watch a ton of basketball! (Feel free to talk to me about either)
