I am a graduate of the University of South Florida. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Economics and currently completing a premed post-baccalaureate program.

Elizah

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +148 Subjects

Hey there! I'm the nerdy girl who classmates ask for help in any subject! I'm a licensed teacher with a bachelor's degree in Art Education and a minor in Spanish. I enjoyed three years of teaching high school before learning about travel nursing and pursuing that! I just got an associate's degree in nursing and passed the NCLEX to become a registered nurse. Before landing a teaching job, I worked with teenage English Language Learners to succeed in every high school course. Learning and teaching math is a special interest of mine; don't let the art degree fool you! In fact, I've tutored people of all ages in a wide variety of subjects including physics, philosophy, chemistry, writing, portraiture and of course mathematics from basics all the way to Calculus AB. My philosophy: A good teacher never makes a statement when she could ask a question. I'm excited to ask all the right questions to help turn this learning struggle into a pleasure and get you on to the next one!

Frequently Asked Questions

The Mechanical Comprehension and Electronics Information sections trip up many students because they require specialized knowledge that isn't covered in typical high school curricula. Word Knowledge and Paragraph Comprehension also challenge students who haven't built strong vocabulary or reading speed. Math sections—Arithmetic Reasoning and Mathematics Knowledge—are difficult for students who struggle with word problems or haven't reviewed algebra fundamentals in years. A tutor can diagnose which specific sections are holding back your score and focus instruction where it matters most.

Pacing is critical because the ASVAB is timed, and running out of time on easier questions you could answer costs you points. Many students spend too long on difficult items early in a section instead of moving through manageable questions first. A tutor can teach you how to quickly identify question difficulty, skip strategically, and allocate your time across sections based on your strengths. Practice tests under timed conditions are essential—they help you build rhythm and identify where you're losing seconds.

Score improvement depends on your starting point and effort, but students typically see 20-50 point increases (on the 1-99 scale) after focused tutoring and practice. If you're starting below 50, gains often come quickly because foundational gaps in math or reading are easier to close. Students already scoring 70+ may see smaller percentage gains but still meaningful improvements in specific sections. The key is consistent practice between sessions and targeted work on your weakest areas—tutoring provides the strategy and accountability to make study time count.

Yes, absolutely. These sections test specific concepts—circuits, pulleys, gears, pressure—that can be learned and practiced. Many students haven't seen this material since middle school science, so a tutor can break down the core principles in a way that sticks. The trick is understanding the underlying logic rather than memorizing facts; for example, learning how simple machines work helps you solve multiple question types. With targeted instruction and visual practice problems, students typically see solid gains in these sections within 4-6 weeks.

Test anxiety often stems from unfamiliarity with the format or fear of time pressure. Repeated practice tests under realistic conditions—same timing, same question types—desensitize you to the experience and build confidence. A tutor can also teach you specific strategies like deep breathing before difficult sections, how to reset mentally after a tough question, and how to reframe mistakes as learning opportunities during practice. Knowing you've practiced similar problems dozens of times reduces the panic response when test day arrives.

Word Knowledge questions test vocabulary in context, so memorizing a random word list is less effective than learning word roots, prefixes, and suffixes that help you decode unfamiliar words. A tutor can teach you to recognize patterns—for example, words starting with 'un-' or 'mis-' typically have negative meanings. You'll also practice using context clues from the sentence to narrow down answers. Spaced repetition of challenging words over weeks, combined with these decoding strategies, builds both vocabulary and test-taking confidence faster than cramming.

Word problems are tricky because they require you to identify what information matters, set up the equation correctly, and solve it—three separate skills. A tutor breaks this down: first, you learn to underline key numbers and identify what you're solving for; second, you practice translating common phrases ('per' means divide, 'total' means add) into operations; third, you work backwards from answers to check your setup. Many students improve dramatically once they see that word problems follow predictable patterns, and tutoring helps you recognize and solve those patterns quickly.

Most students benefit from 4-8 weeks of consistent prep, spending 5-10 hours per week on practice and instruction. A typical week might include one tutoring session (1-2 hours), two practice test sections (2-3 hours), and targeted review of weak areas (2-3 hours). Front-load diagnostic work to identify your gaps, then spend the bulk of your time on those sections rather than reviewing material you already know. A tutor helps you create a personalized schedule and adjust it based on progress—this focused approach is far more effective than random studying for months.
