Award-Winning Elementary Math Tutors for Students in Glendale, AZ

...student at Barrett, the Honors College at Arizona State University. As of right now, I am a freshman working for a Biological Sciences degree. 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...

...the "holes" in their learning are located. It's important to find these gaps because it enables me to understand what topics should be reviewed 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...

...2nd year Doctor of Pharmacy student at Midwestern University. I am originally from California, but live in Arizona because I am attending school. I have accumulated about 5 years worth of tutoring experience from private tutoring, classroom teaching, and after-school programs where I used to work. My favorite subjects are math/science and I have tutored algebra 1, geometry, algebra 2, trigonometry, pre-calculus, calculus, statistics, and SAT math in the past. My goal for my students...

...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 sets. Bringing my experiences as both the...

...education is the key to opening the door to one's future. It creates the potential to reach goals and stir up motivation previously unknown. A good teacher has the power to change a child's life by showing them they are capable of reaching goals they never thought possible. Motivation like this starts with just a spark of knowledge, a guess at the right answer, and a push in the right direction and that starts with...

...have a competitive athletic background playing basketball, softball, and running track. I still play from time to time and thru those experiences, I learned how to remain focused, dedicated and ambitious. It can be difficult balancing your school work and being a tri-sport athlete year round but I have the tools to help you with developing that. I am patient, confident, and enjoy introducing new learning tactics to students. In my opinion, tutoring is not...

Whether you come to me for a single session or we meet every week for a semester, I believe the first step to success with tutoring is to work together to set clear expectations. This lets us work toward the same goal, and makes it simple to set milestones to get there. Any problem area in any subject can be broken into smaller and smaller pieces, until suddenly you realize there was never a problem...

...I believe that tutors are the most helpful when the student has already struggled with a concept, because the tutor can hone in on the specifics. Math is a skill that gets better with practice, like sports or music. I keep my arithmetic skills sharp through tutoring at Kumon, and my higher math skills through self-study with my college textbooks and tutoring higher math students. I plan on getting a Master's in math in the...

...when it comes to changing my approach based on a student’s particular learning needs. Rather than simply showing my method for solutions, I make note of how students tackle problems, and their thinking gives me guidance concerning strategies that will improve on their own methods. I enjoy the challenge of finding novel ways to help students make learning easier. Illustrating how these subjects can be fascinating and relevant out in the real world can help...

...student reach their potential. I offer flexible hours, I am easy to get along with, and I have effective methods. I take pride in helping others learn. I have a BS in mechanical engineering so there isn't a high school or college math class I haven't taken. I'm a Physics dork as well! Outside of tutoring, I love the outdoors, sports (especially the Cardinals and Suns!), and science-fiction. I look forward to working with you!

...the past five years of my life teaching students in Ohio and Arizona to improve in their writing and improve critical thinking processes. I have graduated with a bachelors in history and a masters in secondary social studies education from The Ohio State University. I believe that everyone can learn given the right tools and motivation. I would love to work with your student to unlock their full potential and give them confidence in their...

...tutoring! Whether it's a silly example or an outrageous pneumonic device to remember a concept, I like to have a good time while we learn. It doesn't have to be like pulling teeth. I always look forward to my tutoring sessions! I am an MBA graduate from the Arizona State University W.P. Carey School of Business which is constantly ranked as one of the best MBA programs in the nation. I received my undergraduate B.S....

...high school students must pass to graduate. In this class we use word problems which students focus on breaking down grammatically to then solve them mathematically. The students also have an opportunity to create their own word problems each week and then "teach" the class how to solve the problem they've created. I have been an educator for over 18 years and enjoy helping students reach their academic goals and teaching them character education as...

I teach various ability levels in the subject areas of writing, math, and reading. I have also worked as an art teacher through Explorations Summer Academy and taught 6th grade English...

I currently hold a teaching credential for Special Education K-12 with two authorizations, including, ASD and ELL. I was accredited by the University of San Diego where I received my Master's Degree in Special Education. I have a passion for teaching and my hope is to share a passion for learning with your students!

...PowerPoint, and Excel. I enjoy teaching elementary school students in reading comprehension, writing, math, and the sciences. I believe that this is the time to develop a strong foundation for future learning which will help sustain a high level of confidence, build self-esteem, and autonomy. I work to show this age group that learning can be fun by using a variety of different activities and resources so they leave each tutoring session with a sense...

...tutoring off and on for the last 20 years and love it! Teaching students to see math in everyday life and take away the fear that is associated with the subject is something I am very passionate about! I have obtained a BS degree in Mathematics from Biola University and a BS degree in Civil Engineering from UC Irvine and have tutored elementary math and Algebra, all the way up to Calculus 2, Statistics and...

I am a Junior at Arizona State University studying Math and Economics! Originally from San Diego, I love being outdoors, sports, and being active. I'm the captain of the Ultimate Frisbee team at ASU and have a 3.76 GPA. I am truly enjoying college and all the opportunities it has to offer. Hopefully, I'll have the opportunity to tutor you!
