...have had a love for teaching. In elementary school I would come home in the afternoon and 'play school' with my stuffed animals, creating and grading worksheets for them. Throughout school, I continued to take every opportunity to assist friends and classmates. Now, in graduate school, I have had the opportunity for training in teaching strategies and philosophy, as well as hands-on work assistant teaching undergraduate psychology courses. I find that I am best at...

...love experimenting, building projects like soda bottle water rockets, and working for and with wildlife by cleaning up their habitats and raising trout from eggs for release as fry (juvenile fish).

...statements in preparation for college. Upon graduation in 2008, I became a Teach for America corps member. Through the organization, I taught English for two years in the Isaac School District while earning my M.A. in Elementary Education at Arizona State University.

...to learn and there's nothing I enjoy more than working on writing with someone else. I went to a competitive, Advanced Placement high school and took nine AP classes over the course of my four years. I most enjoyed my English classes, but I also loved taking AP Psychology.

...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 believe academic goals are more readily achievable when concepts are understood, rather than formulas memorized. When helping students...

...Rio Salado Colleges for 17 years. I also worked for elementary schools as a teacher's aide. I generate enthusiasm in my methods of teaching.

...a helping profession because I truly enjoy helping people, which is ultimately why I enjoy tutoring. I find a reassuring satisfaction in helping someone that either does not know they need help, or cannot receive adequate help due to environmental limitations. Tutoring falls into this category because often times, the student needs help outside of their school environment. While I tutor many different subjects, my favorite subject to tutor is Mathematics, particularly Statistics and Basic...

...confident with the assignments they are given, and are able to retain and utilize the concepts that I have taught them. I know that they usually understand or master the topics I teach them, because I informally assess them at the end of the session and their results are at or above the level they are expected to be at. In addition, I use approaches where I relate the subject matter to their personal interests...

In May 2013, I graduated from the Mary Lou Fulton College at...

...Women's Studies Gender Studies, and Social Work. I believe in the potential for any student to achieve an A in every course and in every assignment. More so than a grade, my goal is to help students fall in love with the process of learning. Feedback from successful students has allowed me to recognize how effective the approaches toward tutoring mine have been for all learning types in various academic subjects. While my tutoring students...

Moreover, it's by listening to your points of view that I gain an understanding of the best way to frame my lesson plans to give you the best chance for success. Like you, I'm a student. For the last two years, I've been earning my M.A. in Government from Johns Hopkins online. My undergraduate...

I also tutor a "5th Hour" class each day that focuses on English and...

...wide range of different subjects. As a 23 year old and a recent college grad, I can relate to my students on a personal basis.

My future wife and I moved to Tucson and I taught for TUSD as an 8th grade math/art teacher, as a 3rd, then 4th, then 5th grade classroom teacher. Later I...

...SAT prep, and GRE prep. I've also had the opportunity to tutor students with special needs, which was, while challenging, a wonderfully rewarding time in my life. I believe that tutoring involves not only learning particular facts or principles, but it also involves imparting a learning method to the tutee, enabling the student to make the most progress possible. Effective studying involves efficiency, effort, focus, and most of all, having a passion for the material....
