Award-Winning Geometry Tutors in Tucson, AZ

...strive to hold myself to. I am a math and science man by nature, and those are the subjects I most enjoy tutoring. For Math and Chemistry, I believe in trying as many problems as possible to learn all of the various tricks associated with them, as well as going over the different concepts to make sure that the basics are fully understood. For Biology, I use a similar style, but with more emphasis on...

...Physics and Geometry. My approach to tutoring is to pinpoint why a student is struggling and to work through difficulties with clear and novel explanations as well as targeted practice. I believe that helping a student master the material is key towards gaining the needed confidence. Outside of school and work, I enjoy getting outdoors, whether it is on a bike or hiking. I also like to read and attend art and cultural events.

...Math because there is only one answer (unless you are working with absolute values) and multiple ways to achieve that answer. So, if one method used to achieve the answer doesn't fit with your learning style there are other methods available. Usually when I tutor, I will ask questions in attempt to understand how much the student knows and where the "holes" in their learning are located. It's important to find these gaps because it...

...Chemistry and Organic Chemistry I and II. Since college, I've spent time as a volunteer tutor for high school and middle school students from disadvantaged backgrounds. I love teaching and I think there's nothing quite as exciting as helping someone truly understand a topic they've been struggling with. My favorite subjects to tutor are Chemistry, Biology, Algebra, and Anatomy. I also enjoy helping undergraduate students with the process of applying to medical school and working...

While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Spanish, Language Arts, and Social Studies. I believe in the importance of lifelong learning, and as a tutor, I strive to instill in my students that passion for knowledge. When given the vision and tools to succeed all...

...time as it takes to help where I can. I take pleasure in most school subjects and am what many would describe as an outdoor enthusiast in my free time which includes hiking, camping, rock-climbing, and kayaking. I have tutoring experience both giving and receiving and have accumulated a vast array of teaching techniques over the years so subjects can be approached from many angles until we find some that work best.... My teaching philosophy begins with a strong educational foundation. I have been fortunate enough to receive higher levels of education which I am eternally grateful for. Now, when I have the opportunity to teach others, I believe in laying strong foundations as well. The amount of time material has to be repeated with a client or explained in various ways to grasp comprehension does not matter to me. Once I commit to a task, especially academic, I like to see it all the way through. In general, especially when the subject is historical or social, I like to consider topics from as many worldviews as possible for a better understanding.

...from Algebra to Advanced Algebra. While I have experience tutoring in mathematics, English, and the ACT and SAT test preparation, math is definitely my passion. I believe that a strong basis in math will benefit any and every student and allow them to understand not only math subjects, but will allow the student to understand other subjects better as well. It is my belief that mathematics is not just based on repetition and memorization, but...

I am also currently participating in an internship as a technical writer and educator at CCLAC, Inc.' an NPO involved in formulating curricula for digital literacy components of the pre-existing Common Core in low-income regions of Tucson, Arizona and Sonora, Mexico. All in all, I have several years of tutoring and instructing children from Middle...

...experiential depth and understanding of my subject matter to offer struggling and promising science students alike, and my strong math background makes me well suited to tutor students outside of my normal comfort zone. I have a history teaching students from 6th grade all the way up to underclassmen at the college level, and 7 years of teaching experience with high schoolers. I have a friendly and outgoing personality, and a sense of professionalism well...

...to working with students on a one-on-one basis. Many of the students I have worked with are non-science majors and finding a way to explain difficult scientific concepts to individual students is something I find rewarding. I have helped students who were anxious about scientific concepts and mathematics become comfortable with these concepts, and I have helped outstanding students to achieve their goals in the classroom. When I'm not working on my own studies, I...
