Award-Winning Math Tutors for Students in Tempe, AZ

...math for nearly a decade, I completed my graduate work last year in Educational leadership with a follow up credential in administration. In the past, my students in mathematics routinely have returned to visit, sharing their continued successes following what was learned as a member of my classroom. I want to continue to help children "get it" as they are called on to rise to new heights in an increasingly competitive academic and occupational climate....

...back and fun. I also take tutoring very seriously. I keep a balance between the students wanting to work with me and learn new things, with "it's time to work". Most students have a hard time sitting still in a classroom for 6 hours all day, under florescent lighting and taking test after test. I like to make learning fun for them. I believe it's not only possible, but also important to combine fun and...

...by knuckles spaces between the inner side of your fingers!), multiply by counting vertices in the Latin print of numerals involved, or simply those who have never had someone to help foster their growth in their skills in mathematics! After a few sessions, students start to see how fast they are capturing the material and how much of it starts to make sense for them in real-time; this is especially prevalent once we diagnose where...

...past 19 years. I have 9 younger siblings and the youngest one will be starting kindergarten in August (can you believe that?). I am currently going for two Master's degrees from ASU. The most important thing that I remember to do throughout my day is to keep a smile on my face. No matter what I'm going through, I always look at the bright side of things. I am looking forward to interacting with all...

...to graduate students, and with it I help professors teach the undergraduate general chemistry curriculum by facilitating the lab portion of it. An important methodology of my work with students is that I ask a lot of questions of the student I'm working with. I want my clients to grasp the material step by step and I really encourage them to try as hard as they can. I truly feel that anyone can assimilate nearly...

...with the belief that all students are appreciated, shown respect and expected to treat each other with the same dignity. I also believe that effective communication is essential for a productive learning environment. Instructions are to be communicated both written and orally; with routine feedback helping to build and encourage students throughout the learning process.

...is key. Education and learning something new is my goal every single day. I've been in education for a very long time. Starting at 15 years old in a classroom with kids was my calling. I've been going to school since kinder, and I'm still learning. Teachers don't know it all. We are lifelong learners. My 7-year-old daughter and I play mindcraft and roblox. But my most favorite is playing the wii Mario Brothers.

...before shifting into a role where I could support students in a different way, and I've loved every minute of it. Outside of school, my world is all about my family. I'm a proud mom to five amazing kids who keep my life full of joy and laughter. You'll often find me with my nose in a book, dreaming up our next family adventure, or cheering loudly at a baseball game. My life as an...

...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, unless it’s terribly hot. And most of all,...

...through Explorations Summer Academy and taught 6th grade English at a summer school. My tutoring experience includes: tutoring African refugees living in Oregon, tutoring children in Ecuador, teaching preschool as an AmeriCorps member in a low-income community in California, and tutoring children living with their families in Bolivian prisons.

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...

...be taught as well. This helped me become a more effective tutor because it allowed me to expand my teaching experience. I believe you can never fully 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...

...a program for No Child Left Behind and mentored at-risk students in various grades, mostly focused in a high school setting.

I love art, writing and photography, singing and being silly. I love little kids and I believe that adults are just big kids, too. I am looking...

...really keep track of their progress. I view tutoring as more of an exchange than traditional teaching; I believe my students and I can work together to solve any problem. When assisting with a writing assignment, for example, it will only be a temporary solution for me to simply pull out a red pen and begin editing. Instead, I prefer to have a conversation with the student to explain the "why" and "how" behind the...
