Award-Winning Geometry Tutors serving Gilbert, AZ

...for teaching and mentoring, regardless of the subject. I grew up in poverty, but through hard work and the motivation of mentors and teachers, I overcame my circumstances. Because I myself know the cost of improving oneself and of overcoming one's circumstances, I expect nothing but hard work, determination, persistence, and a positive attitude. I'm not an unfair person. I don't expect for you to do all the work alone. I will learn whatever material...

...struggling with a subject merely because it isn’t being taught to him/her in a way that is conducive with his/her learning style. This is where a tutor, particularly one capable of recognizing this need, comes in. In my free time I like to watch movies and read. I also enjoy drawing and painting. When I’m feeling particularly adventurous, I like to go rockclimbing and skydiving (anything to get my adrenaline going!). I enjoy being outside,...

...understand a subject until you can teach it so through tutoring, I am able to assist 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...

...would take joy in understanding while growing up. That love has not gone away and I love sharing my excitement for math with my students. I also love tutoring in reading and writing because although these subjects never came easy to me as a child they are things that I loved doing and worked hard to excel in. My tutoring style is characterized as laid-back. I want to understand my students strengths and weaknesses in...

...minor in Chemistry. During my time earning my 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...

...and sharing my love of learning with other people. I've tutored middle school students for a year and I love it. My students and I usually meet 1-3 times a week and they have all made significant positive changes in test scores and overall understanding of a variety of subjects. I am patient, encouraging, and friendly. I understand that each individual learns differently and I tailor my lessons to each student.My hobbies are exploring downtown...

...from K-8. I also have some experience with college age students. I am a visual learner and use drawing and manipulatives to help students learn. I have taken students in my class up at least one grade level. Often my students rise more than one grade level with my help. I have used music and games to help students understand a concept. I have many different ways of helping students grasp the information.

...of solving the problems. Students must be able to relate one kind of problem to the next. What are the similarities and what are the differences? What strategies can be used? There are often multiple strategies, what is the best one for the student? I truly feel that all students can grasp the concepts of mathematics to a given degree. As far as hobbies I enjoy boating, swimming, books, movies, and riding a motorcycle.... Simply put,...

...gain entry into prestigious private high schools. My students achieved top scores, despite the fact that each encountered different obstacles during their preparation. I have learned that tutoring is incredibly dynamic: every student is different in their capabilities and learning style. As a tutor, I strive to develop a strong rapport with each group and their families in order to tailor my teaching approach to the group's energy. In my spare time, I love being...

...students with learning and emotional disabilities. I have also run after school enrichment programs for gifted students that have received commendations from state officials. I specialize in tailoring instruction to the learner's strengths, particularly for more visual learners. My instruction on fractions has been called the clearest the interviewer had seen. I am a generalist up through the high school level in content. In math I can teach up through Geometry effectively, and I have...

...easier to remember. I believe that math and science are key in getting further in education, which in itself is invaluable. Due to my background in math, I am very comfortable tutoring pre-algebra, algebra I, algebra II, geometry, and industrial engineering as needed. In addition, I am strongly suited to tutor in anatomy & physiology and I really enjoy this subject. On a personal level, I like to hike, cook, play rec kickball, and spend...

I am currently an mechanical engineering major at Arizona State University. I work with a student organization on campus that designs, tests, and works on satellites and satellite systems. I enjoy hiking, running, and going to a movie or bowling with friends.

...towards getting my degree in Secondary Math Education. I have tutored a varity of ages from 2nd grade up to Freshman in college. When it comes to the subjects themselves I love teaching math, specifically Algebra 1. I like helping people with Algebra 1 because it is one of the biggest foundation stones in math and a solid understanding of it will help when trying to conquer subjects like trigonometry and calculus. I prefer to...

...school, and over the years I've worked with students of varied backgrounds -- from those re-taking failed classes to those applying to (and being accepted at) the best universities. I'm proud to say that I've helped all my students reach their goals, frequently pushing them to exceed their expectations. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time outdoors and exploring all that Arizona has to offer -- it's so different from the east coast that...

..."aha" moments in my students! I love the feeling of helping a young learner gain confidence and independence in their learning skills and subject matter. My personal philosophy is that any subject can be fun, we just have to figure out how to make it so! My personal style is to use what the learner is interested in to make the subject more fun! Who says you can't use Pokemon to teach math, Minecraft to...

...the way up to Calculus 2, Statistics and Physics. I am very experienced at learning the best way each student learns and to switch up styles to meet their needs in the best way possible. My other passions are sports, particularly baseball and hockey, I love hiking and other outdoor activities, working out, music and photography! If you want a tutor that is passionate about helping others to learn and to enjoy math, then I...

...study skills, tools and confidence to get to their desired level of competence on their own. I don't give answers; we find them together. I try to add realism and practicality to the sometimes dry, theoretical learning experience. There is nothing more satisfying than to see a student's success and progress. I love music and sing in three groups that entertain at hospitals and nursing homes. I enjoy tennis and golf in sunny Arizona, and...

...my power to bring out the potential in every student. My career goal is to be a pilot in the US Air Force when I graduate. I enjoy flying and am currently working on my PPL (Private Pilot's License) whenever I have the time. In my spare time, I also enjoy staying active with playing sports (I love ultimate frisbee and racquetball) and hiking the beautiful trails that Tucson has to offer.... My approach varies with...

...While at 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...

I helped people in chemistry labs and biology labs, edited essays, and worked through math problem sets with other students. When I tutored students, regardless of subject, I would bring patience and understanding with me to the session. If they were not grasping a concept, then I...
