Award-Winning AP Physics 1 Tutors serving Tucson, AZ

...I have tutored my peers and underclassmen in the past, generally in math, and they told me that it greatly helped them. In my free time, I like to read novels, run, play with my dog, go hiking, do art projects, play the trumpet and swim. In high school I was in band, film club, and track and field. I am a quiet person, but I am a good listener and can explain concepts in...

...many National Science Foundation opportunities in Math and Computer Science. I have taught AP Statistics, AP Calculus AB and BC, and Computer Science A and AB (when it was offered). My rate of passing for all AP courses is over 90% ( and over 50% scoring a 5). I am currently retired from the classroom, but I am eager to share what I have to assist in the success of my students.

...of the human experience. I view myself as a very analytical and tactful person but also personable and accommodating. I seek to use the four plus years I have of working as a tutor to help you further your goals. My hobbies outside of class and tutoring mostly consists of gaming, cooking, and travelling, and I'm currently involved in two clubs on campus as I finish out my senior year's work at the University of...

...offer materials and guidance that are relevant, innovative, and impactful. I take pride in my ability to connect with students, build trust, and foster an environment where learning is not only about grades but about growing as a thinker and a problem solver. My goal is to help students achieve their academic objectives while laying the groundwork for a fulfilling and successful future. If you are looking for a tutor who is committed to delivering...

...was one of the many students who are heard to say, "I'm just not good at math." Through practice, however, I was able to vastly improve my problem-solving abilities. As a tutor, I want to share this experience with others, and show them that instead of thinking "I'm not good at math," they should think, "I will be good at math." Besides physics and mathematics, my interests include writing, music, and gaming. If you're looking...

...the subject. Once an interest is formed, appreciation and understanding easily develop. My approach to tutoring subjects that center around problem solving, such as Chemistry and Physics, is to go over a variety of example problems and learn all the different methods to solving such problems. For subjects with more abstract concepts, such as Biology, Biochemistry, and other Life Science topics, my emphasis shifts towards understanding the broader picture. Outside of academia I spend a...

...and have specifically explored my interests in biology, chemistry, physics, and CS through microbiology, cancer research, AI imaging, and now BME device design. I have about 3 years of experience tutoring both privately and for Kumon. Through preparation for numerous standardized tests including AP exams, SAT, and ACT, I've learned proper test taking strategies that I hope to share with my students. Beyond this, I emphasize consistent practice problems that tackle not just memorization a...

...tutoring after completing a class covering various tutoring strategies and methodologies my sophomore year through the UofA's Center for Recruitment and Retention of Mathematics Teachers. During this course I was mentored by two high school teachers who had me help during their classes. This experience gave me a good base for designing lessons and introduced me to common problems students have and how to work past them. After completing this course and earning a listing...

...confidence and discover their ability to master difficult material. I am currently pursuing a degree in Systems Engineering at the University of Arizona, with minors in Mathematics and Aerospace Engineering, and I tutor students in Calculus IIII, as well as Differential Equations. Each level of calculus brings its own unique challenges and opportunities for growth. In Calculus I, I enjoy helping students overcome their initial fears and build a solid foundation. In Calculus II, I...

...a degree in Senegal where I finally won my immigration to the USA. While I thought I was done dealing with people around me, I didn't know it was just the beginning of a fight against language barrier and racism. I wish there was at least one black, even if it was a black American in my program at the U of A. This alienation with only whites, rather than weakening me, confirmed how smart...

...a group of adolescents. In addition I have been a math tutor for adults working to obtain the equivalent of a high school diploma. I can tutor all levels of high school Math, (AP) Chemistry, (AP) Biology, Spanish, (AP) Language, (AP) Literature, and general reading and writing. I love teaching because I can share my love of learning, and for the sense of purpose that mentorship brings. I can help your child understand whatever they...

I'm an ASU engineering student and I love teaching physics. I've worked as a Teaching Assistant in the Engineering department teaching Statics and I want to make Physics more approachable for other students. I can explain a Physics concept or problem in a dozen ways until it makes sense to you.

I believe that the best strategy to teaching is to identify misconceptions and carefully build up understanding from the basics.

Hi. I was a data analyst for 20 years in the corporate world, and now I am transitioning to being a secondary math/physics teacher. I am passionate about learning, and hope to bring a fresh perspective to these subjects.

I am currently a third year physics student at the University of Arizona. I have prior tutoring experience, and can cover many topics in math and physics. Outside of school I like rock climbing, hiking, camping, and snowboarding.

I recently completed grad school with a degree in geology. I have a broad background in the physical science and math. I look forward to helping you out with standardized tests, math through calculus, chemistry, and physics.... Anyone can master any subject with enough time and the right teacher.... I ask the student what they think they are having issues with and work through some general practice problems to try and determine exactly what subjects need...

...learning! However, they need to be taught some simple basics on how to read for comprehension, write using evidence, problem solve using diagrams, and finally, study using a strategy. When any deficiencies have been addressed within the subject area, then the student becomes capable of understanding new concepts and then continuing successful progress on their own. As a tutor, I will make every effort to identify the student's deficiencies that need to be strengthened while...

...and therefore each student may learn slightly differently than the one style of teaching that the classroom teacher primarily uses. I also understand that life circumstances play a huge role in a student's ability to learn and focus on content for 8hrs a day. I'm open to using different techniques to allow for the best possible learning experience and understanding of the material for the student and can't wait to get back to doing what...

...middle and high school students hands on, experiential marine science lessons. I went to high school here in Tucson at Catalina Foothills and I studied abroad in Vancouver Island, Canada for two years, completing the I.B. diploma. My philosophy of education is focused on sharing my own passion for a subject and developing a similar appreciation in the students that I work with. I believe that this passion is essential for effective learning to happen,...

...back into tutoring, which was a huge passion of mine while I was in school. As a tutor in a community college environment, I got to work with people from a wide range of backgrounds and age groups. I have experience tutoring arithmetic, algebra, calculus, both calculus and algebra-based physics, statics, dynamics, and mechanics of materials. One of my favorite subjects to tutor was algebra because often I was working with students who were coming...
