...students. I have always love math and helping students understand the subject better and relieve their stress is a great delight to me. I have patience for every student and I change my tutoring style to fit every student. Based on the student I will design a plan to know what to work on and develop the skills needed to succeed in the subject. My favorite hobby is chess and I try to attend tournaments...

...those up before getting back to the main problem. At the end of the day, I want the student to to feel confident they're getting better. I can handle things as simple as algebra or as complicated as calculus. I'm also an excellent test taker, ready to assist with the SAT or ACT exams. I'm confident I can help you or your child get better at math, and hopefully make it a little fun along...

...math and came to appreciate it as a language all of its own. Awareness of math as an invaluable tool came to me later, after I’d developed a strong interest in physics and astronomy, fields that rely on math heavily. I’ve also taken the time to nurture my passion for the Japanese language and culture. During college, I spent two semesters in Kyoto, Japan, where I participated in an intensive language and emersion program. During...

...manager, solar panel installer, sous chef at a renowned restaurant, founder of a music cooperative in downtown Phoenix and, most recently, multi-instrumentalist in a band that tours all over the world. Obviously, my interests are broad. I view every personal endeavor as a fundamentally educational experience. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about English, literature, history, philosophy, and Spanish (which I learned to speak while studying philosophy in Argentina)....

...expectations, as they are more likely to achieve success when goals are set and students are encouraged. I have been teaching for 7 years now. I taught 2 years in Indiana, teaching high school special education. I taught resource Biology, resource classes for study skills and homework help, and I co-taught for language arts. After being laid off in Indiana, I moved to Arizona, where I began teaching in Phoenix. I taught 7/8 grade for...

...teacher at a private high school for kids with emotional and behavioral disorders. One of the things I loved was that I was able to teach a wide variety of subjects from Math to Psychology to History. My favorite subjects are Math, History, and Social Sciences. I grew up in Chicago and recently moved to Phoenix in order to escape the winters and enjoy the sunshine. So far I have not been disappointed. In my...

...Master's of Education at graduate school so that I can become officially certified as a teacher in Arizona. In the summer of 2014, I tutored a 2nd grade girl and a 3rd grade girl in topics ranging from negative numbers, multiplication, and division to synonyms, antonyms, and early essay-writing. I tutor elementary math, a variety of English subjects such as essay editing, grammar, literature, reading, and writing, as well as test prep for lower-level ISEE,...

...Honors. I have lived in the Phoenix area for over 15 years and enjoy the sunny skies, golf courses, cultural attractions and hiking trails that Arizona has to offer! My hobbies and interests include playing the guitar, ice skating, golfing and watching football.

These fields require ambition, persistence, knowledge and initiative to achieve success. Solving problems in the...

I have been a teacher of Science and Mathematics, in junior (middle) and high school, and have specialized in classroom tutoring of Mathematics (HQ-highly qualified) and Reading since 1997. I love to understand something I have struggled to comprehend, and so...

...to become a tutor. At Colorado College we took courses on the "Block Plan," during which students took one course at a time, for one month only. This meant that the same group of about 15 students went to the same class everyday, making it very easy to form small study groups after class. Essentially, I spent four years tutoring (and receiving tutoring!) from my fellow classmates as we worked through class notes and problem...

...and education in English. I have strong writing skills and enjoy the art of literature. I also taught at a local reading center for two years during my high school career; teaching children from ages 3 to high school level. I studied abroad in Barcelona, Spain, where I attainted a certificate in international business. I like to immerse myself into creativity, as well as logic. My hobbies include art and music, which I strongly believe...

...Phoenix 9 years ago. I really love helping people, which is what led me to pursue social work. I enjoy tutoring because it gives me the chance to spend quality time with a person, learning his or her learning style, so that I can adapt my teaching style to best help the individual. I have always really enjoyed and excelled at math, but find that I can tutor a broad range of subjects, from English...

Since graduation I have completed a Masters in Public Health with a focus on epidemiology and infectious diseases.

...as part of my membership in the Institute of Industrial Engineers during my years in college, and have worked in an elementary school environment where my duties as a technology coordinator occasionally required me to instruct students. For me, the biggest thrill in any job is visibly seeing that "light bulb moment" as someone crosses the boundary between confusion and understanding. Thank you for taking the time to consider me for your tutor, and I'm...

...in philosophy and completed all my course requirements for a PhD in philosophy. After several adventurous decades including travel in Africa and Asia, building a house in the Gulf Islands of British Columbia, running a business designing and selling jewelry, and building alternative straw bale buildings on my property in the White Mountains of Arizona, I started tutoring math at Northland Pioneer College in Snowflake and Show Low, AZ. The past two years I have...

...using the same methods, in reality that doesn't always work. I have witnessed first hand how frustration can stop a student in his or her tracks. Many times I have seen students put themselves down and give up on learning. Sometimes they believe that when they didn't understand something fast enough, that maybe they just can't do it. This is never the case. There are many ways of approaching new knowledge and new skills, and...

I provide tutoring to all types of students in the areas of reading, writing, math, social sciences, psychology, and study skills/organization.
