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

...system we've got. Yet even still, it isn't perfect. People learn in different ways, and sitting in a classroom isn't always going to allow for optimal learning conditions. That's where I come in. By tutoring, myself and others are able to directly work with individuals until comprehension, understanding, and eureka moments abound. I am personally most interested in languages, math, history, literature, music, all forms of art, scientific investigation of the universe, and games which...

...subjects, with physics being one of my most favorite. When I'm coaching a student, I believe in a very tailored approach which encourages and strengthens the knowledge and skills that a student has and then adds the information that is needed to succeed. Rote memorization is not my strong suit, I believe in really understanding the underlying organizing principles. In my other job I design houses, and when I'm not doing that I love to...

...Ontario, Canada and attended numerous scientific conferences. During my graduate studies I taught three different lab courses: Mechanics, Electricity and Magnetism, and Life in the Universe. These were intended for non-physics-major students, so I have had extensive practice in bringing even the most advanced concepts down to a level that any student can understand. The lab courses were also relatively small (between 10 and 20 students). The small class sizes allowed me to learn to...

...curiosity and exploration to understand the world through engagement. I attended the University of Arizona where I obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree in Women Studies. I acquired my graduate degree in Education with emphasis in Organizational Management from Grand Canyon University. My favorite subjects to tutor are Reading and Math. I love that "got it" moment a student's face when they have reached a milestone. I love to travel during the summer. My travel...

...the student in learning the material while solidifying my own knowledge. The most important part of my lesson plan is to make learning enjoyable. A tutor must be able to quickly identify the learning style of the student so the lesson can be modified to their style. Apart from tutoring, my hobbies and interests include observing planets and galaxies with my 10" Meade telescope, playing soccer locally with family and friends, and going to the...

Also, I have a strong skill level in Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, and Excel. I enjoy teaching elementary school students in reading comprehension, writing,...

...and enjoy helping those around me. Anatomy and science courses are my favorite to tutor, as I use them every day and find them very interesting. I tutor various levels of math, English, writing, and science, and like to let students contribute insight on the areas they need help with, and I provide feedback and knowledge from there. I believe that this increases student confidence and ability be self-sufficient and successful with the student's education....

...very patient and understanding person. I speak clearly and always make sure I can help the student find a way to understand the material, even if it means deviating form normal techniques. I have tutored both kids and peers in the past. I have found that for kids, especially in mathematics, relating to something they enjoy makes the experience more enjoyable. Regarding peers/college level students, I can relate to them very well, because I have...

...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! I have been studying Spanish language and linguistics for the past ten years, and combined with my Hispanic background I have been able to successfully complete a competitive interpreter training course at the University of Hawaii at Manoa. I love teaching...

...have also assisted many students in going on to higher education, so I have become very accomplished at editing university papers as well. Although I was born in California, I am almost an Arizona native. I enjoy the diversity of this state and I enjoy outdoor activities like hiking, biking and skiing. Traveling is also something I enjoy and I have been to many countries throughout the world. I also enjoy reading and crafts, but...

...needs to be solved. When working with young learners, I see myself as tutoring not just the child, but the parents as well. I want to equip learners with the tools they need to be successful outside of our sessions. I have experience working with students with a variety of special needs, including ADHD, autism, behavioral issues, and lack of motivation. My approach to test prep sessions is to equip students with the best strategies...

...delivery within the body as well as developing code for counting cells. I am an avid learner and love to share my knowledge with those around me. My favorite courses to tutor are predominantly quantitative. I like to treat these courses like an intricate puzzle that I have to solve using the skills in my "skill tool belt". I would love to share my enthusiasm for these courses with the students I tutor, helping them...

...ASU I had the opportunity to work at the Downtown Student Success Center for two years as a supplemental instructor. Most of my students were pre-med or studying to become nurses. My favorite subject to teach was Anatomy/Physiology, but I also enjoyed most math and sciences courses especially General and Organic Chemistry. In my spare time, I enjoy competing in all types of sports, reading a good book and taking a ride on my motorcycle.

...it, but there were positive results for him as well. I have a well-rounded background including everything most math-related fields (as my major requires me to have an extensive mathematical background), computing, and acting. Although most technical students don't have the time, or perhaps the desire, to engage in an art, I actively pursue my artistic interest acting in movies and taking classes. I also grew up playing sports, specifically football, and take interest in...

It is my belief that everyone is capable of higher level learning. Although I am young, I have seen a variety of learners from different parts of the country. I have learned that teaching and learning is not a one size fits all. I will my instruction to meet you needs, and help you reach your learning goals!

...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 own abilities inside and outside of the classroom. Also, other than teaching world history and yearbook currently, I am an avid musician spending much of my time writing and performing my own songs. I am absolutely addicted to record collecting and accumulating what my girlfriend deems to...

...three years in college I tutored hundreds of students in any subject that had anything to do with Mechanical Engineering. I have experience tutoring students with extremely different learning styles and I've learned to adapt to each in turn. I graduated in 2012 with a 4.0 in Mechanical Engineering from ASU and currently work full time, but I miss tutoring. So I'm back at it. My favorite subjects to tutor are Physics 1 & 2,...

...their strengths. In my spare time I take my dog to nursing homes and critical care hospitals to visit the patients. She is a "love therapy" dog and greatly in demand. I love to fish, both deep sea and freshwater and any time spent on or near the water is perfection. I have painted children's furniture for years and all my nieces and nephews and children of friends can count on having one of my...
