Hello, my name is Michelle. I am originally from Vermont, but recently moved to the desert. In my spare time I do cooking experiments, go for bike rides, write short stories, and watch stand up comedy. I have a lot of patience when it comes to learning new things and I look forward to teaching!... My teaching philosophy revolves around the idea that we learn better when we are comfortable making mistakes. They are, after all, how we learn. The learning process requires patience on behalf of the student and the teacher, so that each can determine the learning style most comfortable for success.

...years of tutoring at the University of Arizona, the University of Texas. My first secret for tutoring is that usually, especially with math, the thing a student is facing at the moment, be it a homework set or an exam, is not the real trouble, but some other difficulty from before, maybe even from a course long ago, is dragging a student down, blocking him or her from learning a new subject. I try to...

...world! I practice patience when teaching to make sure that you learn at your own pace. I also acknowledge that everyone learns differently so I try to implement different strategies, such as analogies and visual media, to make the material more accessible to the individual. My style of teaching involves a very step-by-step nature to make sure that students are actually learning the material as opposed to memorizing endless facts, not to mention trying to...

Hello! I am Dawn. I love tutoring, especially in one on one situations, because I love to watch the light in someone's eyes when they "get it." I can and will use various methods from visual to lecture to help you or your child learn the subject. I have worked with students who just needed help studying and ones who had extreme test anxiety. I am willing to help you with what YOU need.... When teaching one on one you are able to make the method fit the student. Learning is individual, and I enjoy being able to make the experience worthwhile for the student.
