Award-Winning Physical Chemistry Tutors in Scottsdale, AZ

...biology, chemistry, physics, organic chemistry, physiology, or microbiology, I can be especially helpful. What about standardized tests? Taking the ACT, SAT, or AP tests soon? Yep, I can help with those as well. I recently prepared for and received a great score on the medical admissions test, so standardized testing strategies are very fresh on my mind. Finally, I'm excited to help you succeed in your courses and meet your goals. As your potential tutor,...

...people who did not know me personally. My style is energetic and engaging. As a trial attorney, I routinely have to communicate complex matters to a jury that has no experience in the fields of chemistry, biology and physics. This forces me to adopt an engaging style to ensure they do not tune me out. I have three very bright children of my own that keep me on my toes helping them with high school...

...a ray diagram depicting a convex lens forming an image. I did not just tell him Heres what it looks like. No. I asked him questions and led him through the problem to the solution, at which he arrived on his own. He then said: You know, Mr. A., I learned more in the past five minutes about optics than my entire last semester. I thought he was exaggerating, but then I realized that his...

...aren't getting the help they need in the classroom. I have experience tutoring students from 13 to college age in math and science, and I'm looking forward to expanding my subject with new students in social studies, reading, and test prep. I am particularly interested in helping high school students prepare for AP tests, many of which I have personal experience with. When I'm not working, I try to get outside! I love camping, hiking,...

...my own techniques and tools to help obtain a different level of understanding. Critical and logical thinking is my main way of thinking. I enjoy the moment when something "clicks" to the person I am tutoring/teaching, it is a great feeling to know that methods and ways work and that the students enjoy learning, I love when they get excited that they finally achieved a level of understanding. I am currently on track to become...

...groups 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.

...for me to receive. I have held two very different chemistry based jobs (one that I am currently in now) since graduation in which I test drinking water and foods for a vast array of microbial agents and chemical compounds that are dangerous to the public. Using my experience in both academics, research and in my career, I have been able to tie in real world problems and solutions to students I have taught and...

...out what works for you. Learning is not just observation, it is also participation. By engaging students in interactive discussions, I encourage curiosity and intellectual exploration. I help students learn how to think not what to think. By learning to think critically, students are able to maximize their potential to excel in math and science and do well on exams. I am willing to work hard to be the best teacher I can to guide...

...mechanics of the human body. Over a year ago I was presented with the opportunity to work as a chemistry tutor at Glendale Community College's main campus. I didn't hesitate to take the offer because I loved chemistry and I was excited to help other students with the topic. Working as a tutor has been life-changing. Not only do I develop a better understanding of the material myself, but it didn't take me long to...

...allow better integration of abstract concepts into reality, concreting what you know and leaving you with a desire to find out more. I attended college at Northwest Missouri State University and received a B.S. in ACS-accredited Chemistry in 2008. I have therefore had a lot of chemistry, including organic and p-chem as well as algebra, trig, geometry and multi-variate calculus. While I was a tutor for the Chemistry/Physics department (and asked to tutor College Lit...
