...because many students find these subjects to be difficult. The feeling when a student finally understands a concept that they were previously having difficulty with is amazing, and I love seeing a student's face brighten up when they achieve this new understanding. As many students have different learning styles, I believe that it is important to create an individualized study plan for each student that best fits their method of learning and allows us to...

...enable students to understand and learn the subjects of chemistry, mathematics, biology, and physics. I achieve this by using an interactive step by step approach to learning, working with the student, answering questions as we go along, rather than just lecturing.

My qualifications include two Bachelor of Science Degrees from Arizona State University and I have over 2000...

As a tutor I believe it is my job to not only help you with your homework, but to also help you learn the core material.

I like to go back to underlying concepts that they already understand...

...range of branches that give opportunities to ask questions and explore a vast array of content. In college I have tutored algebra, geometry, as well as trigonometry. I enjoy teaching mathematics since they tend to be logical and very straight forward. Something that one of my mentor teachers said sticks with me to this day: "They don't care how much you know, unless they know how much you care." Since, I have made it my...
