Award-Winning Biology Tutors in Tempe, AZ

...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 can also tutor in writing and reading, since I have experience as a professional copy editor. My focus when tutoring is student understanding. I believe academic goals are more readily achievable when concepts are understood, rather than formulas memorized. When helping students prepare for standardized tests I focus on...

...seeing other people succeed. I like helping my students figure out their own learning styles and then helping them maximize on their strengths. I tutor a wide range of subjects but the sciences are my personal specialty. I am fascinated with the building blocks of matter and love learning and teaching about them. If you need help with biology, chemistry, physics, organic chemistry, physiology, or microbiology, I can be especially helpful. What about standardized tests?...

...Exam. Whether in the sciences or humanities, my students benefit from my unique blend of experience. My varied education, with degrees in both Biochemistry and Classical Studies and advanced study in a number of fields in between, gives me the flexibility to adapt to each student and the power to supplement a student's education with perspectives from other fields. My experience in leadership development, as president of my residential college, also allows me to guide...

...had the pleasure of tutoring throughout college beginning in my sophomore year where I was an undergraduate TA for lower level math classes (i.e. up to calculus 1) for 3 years; then I was selected by my introductory biology professor to become her preceptor, in which I held weekly office hours and conducted review sessions for the upcoming tests. I continued to be a preceptor for my biology professor and the department throughout my following...

On the artsy side of things I have been doing chalk pastels, painting, and crafting since I was...

...and Developmental Biology. I have tutored college students extensively throughout the past three years. I enjoy research and have conducted three studies, one of which was focused on the effectiveness of tutoring methods in the sciences. In my experience, learning how to study effectively can result in significant improvements, and I have extensive experience in this area both through working with students and research. As such, my goal is to help my students become more...

...earning my doctorate in Physical Therapy. For three years, I tutored high school and college students in algebra I & II as well as helped classmates in courses 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...

...or emphasized. I also believe that asking questions encourages the student to think, which helps them make connections. The connections they make will help them in future situations because the students created these connections rather than merely being told information. I do not believe in simply giving out answers. I believe that memorizing answers do not help the student learn and that it actually hurts their learning. In math especially, the topics build on each...

...at Dillard University I discovered that I also have a deep love for teaching. I discovered the ultimate way to assess if you really know something is whether or not you can teach it to someone who may not be familiar with the subject matter. This a great challenge, but I enjoy it. I love to see the look on a person's face when they "get it." I have also found that I too learn...

In addition to working as an Arizona State University Writing Center tutor for three years during my undergrad, I have provided private tutoring in a variety of subjects over the...

...degree I was a tutor for a plant and animal genetics course. Since graduating I have worked a few different jobs including teaching high school science and math and working as a microbiologist. When tutoring I do like to work along with the students curriculum to enhance their understanding of the subjects currently being taught. I believe both the student and I can prepare for the study sessions each week to help get through as...

...program in Biology at Arizona State University. When I'm not teaching biology to undergraduate majors at ASU, I research topics in aquatic ecology. Understanding the connectedness and patterns of environmental processes in aquatic ecosystems drives my passion to become an ecologist! My goal is to help students view learning as a positive experience! When students learn with me, they usually find that it is a very relaxed, hands-on, and visual process. I excel at tutoring...

...a certificate in Civic Education. Since graduating, I have started working with the Denver Math Fellows helping close the opportunity gap for high need students by providing small group math instruction. I find the most excitement in tutoring middle school math and science, Algebra I, and General Biology. I find that for most students what makes any subject hard is being unable to use what you already know and not knowing how to tackle the...

...at the college level. I have worked with many students including special needs children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder, Oppositional Defiance Disorder and some emotionally disturbed children. I have experience in the medical microbiology lab at the Hawaii Department of Health and a virology research lab at University of Hawaii at Manoa. I love Microbiology and Spanish!

...Previously, I went to BASIS Chandler, where I tutored students who needed help. I tutored Microeconomics, French, and Math (up to Calculus AB). My favorite subject to tutor is mathematics and Biology. Mathematics has a broad range of problems that are applicable in real life. Biology is a fascinating subject because it is the building blocks for life. Once you understand Biology, you will understand the way everything is connected in the world. My teaching...
