...levels. I am particularly passionate about tutoring English, Mandarin, and standardized test prep. In my experience working with students struggling to pass a class or to prepare for college entrance exams, we always have fun determining the study method that works best for them.

...Science in Entry to Nursing Practice and begin work as a pediatric nurse. I decided to change my path from mathematics and physics to nursing because I perform best and feel happiest when I am working with others, which is why I am so excited to have the opportunity to be a tutor.

...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 been through exactly what they're going through and I believe the number one trait...

...founded and led a tutoring program though my four years in high school that connected high school tutors with peers, middle school students, and potentially students from an underfunded local elementary school in attempts to make academic help more accessible.

I also plan to attend graduate school, and eventually I would like to teach in a...

...I received my B.S. in Cognitive Science with a specialization in Neuroscience from the University of California San Diego. Between my undergraduate education and medical school education, I tutored high school students in a variety of subjects, including Algebra, Chemistry, Biology, and Spanish.

...focus on English and Spanish. Recently I moved back to Phoenix from Thailand, where I spent a year teaching English to adolescents and adults who inadvertently taught me Thai in return. I love languages because I appreciate the importance of communication in regard to the quality of our human experience. I am a friendly and conscientious individual who enjoys new undertakings and the perspective they offer. As an enthusiast for information, art, and living things,...

...learn a little differently, and though schools try their best they can't account for every learning style. My goal is to adapt my instruction to each student's preferences in order to help them as much as I can. In my free time, I like to play ice hockey (or just skate), knit, do yoga, and read, especially epic fantasy (I may or may not have all the Lord of the Rings books memorized). I also enjoy...

...adequate help due to environmental limitations. Tutoring falls into this category because often times, the student needs help outside of their school environment. While I tutor many different subjects, my favorite subject to tutor is Mathematics, particularly Statistics and Basic Algebra. I enjoy those specific mathematical subjects because I believe they are the most black and white subjects and therefore, the easiest to break down for a student. Nothing is more rewarding than seeing a...

While I currently teach college students professionally, I still really enjoy tutoring younger students. I have worked with students from kindergarten all the way to 12th grade, teaching math, computers, English, and Spanish. I look forward to my time working with students and will do everything I can to help you succeed in your class!

I also grew up playing sports, specifically football, and take interest in most others as well. My goal is to challenge myself to help a student find what it is that they are missing in the material, and of course, produce better scores...

...speaking and comprehending Spanish in several locations. I tutor for Spanish, ESL, and English. I always hope to be a bridge for people, helping them cross personal barriers of fear or the lack of knowledge and experience, so they can reach their goals and passions. I am a passionate learner, and bring that spark with me when I help others learn. What I like best in a one-on-one learning environment is getting to really know...

...concept, since this is conducive to the student's learning. I am currently in the process of obtaining a Bachelor of Science degree in pure mathematics at Rice University in Houston, Texas. I tutor a wide range of subjects including U.S. History, algebra, calculus, chemistry, comparative politics, economics, and test preparation. Although I enjoy tutoring in all of these subjects, I especially like tutoring math-related subjects such as high school algebra, calculus, and linear algebra. Outside...

...I found this difficult; it was a challenge determining exactly where a student's understanding of a topic was faulty. Over time, however, I developed a keener sense for the hurdles that students sometimes face when learning, as well as the most efficient ways to overcome them. I also developed more patience and empathy through tutoring - I often remembered feeling the same confusion about a topic that my students were feeling the first time I...

Although I enjoy helping students improve in all subjects, I find that tutoring for standardized tests offers particularly rewarding experiences given the potential impact on students' future academic endeavors. My teaching style involves helping students find their ideal learning style based on their individual strengths and unique way of perceiving information. I try to focus on teaching "how" to think constructively rather than "what" to think. In my free time,...

...State University with a focus on Latin American Studies. The value I place on having studied Spanish and associated studies is endless: travel becomes much more meaningful; appreciation of arts, music and culture is much more fulfilling; and everyday conversational interaction, whether it be in work relations or attending cultural events, is more satisfying. Other subjects that I have had the opportunity to study at both ASU and Phoenix Community College include Italian, Portuguese, and...
