Award-Winning Pre-Calculus Tutors in Catalina Foothills, AZ

...are distinctively analytical, like the LSAT, philosophy, and logic. I think these subjects are a unique challenge to teach because students only develop the necessary skill if they are able critically think through the problems at hand. I thus do my best to guide my students thinking processes, rather than tell them the answers. I spend most of my free time playing and listening to music. I love most genres, but am particularly keen on...

...from Swarthmore College with a major in Computer Science and a minor in Mathematics, and have been traveling around the country, mostly on bicycle, for the year since then. I'm interested in sharing introductory coding and math skills with people in communities that wouldn't necessarily get them in the education system, especially as tools to further activist work. To this end I want to get some practice one-on-one teaching these subjects! I'm also interested in...

...have found students have an underlying fear that "math skills" are an inherited ability. My personal goal is to show every student that anyone can become skillful in mathematics if they put in the practice and gain the confidence in the subject. I am most passionate about mathematics because it explains so many of the intricate beauties we encounter on a daily basis and I try every day to get my students to recognize those...

...the University of Maryland College Park where I studied Linguistics and Creative Writing. So, I know the English language inside and out! I have been working as a private tutor for two years now.

...graduated with a bachelor's and master's of biomedical engineering from Arizona State University. I recently completed three years of my MD curriculum and am now returning to tutoring during my MBA studies. I struggled throughout high school until finally preparing for the SAT and ACT, so I'm adept with picking up just what you're struggling with - I was there once, too. Now having performed in the upper 10% of all standardized exams I have...

...multiple applications. It is most always misunderstood because of its complexities of application. My favorite sporting events encompasses team sports. I feel that a team is far more capable than an individual. Any team that is coached to behave as a team will out perform a team that is not even if the skill level is significantly out of proportion. Here is where I excel in that I know how to bring a technology team...

...was a student tutor for General 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...

...it a homework set or an exam, is not the real trouble, but some other difficulty from before, maybe even from a course long ago, is dragging a student down, blocking him or her from learning a new subject. I try to delve down with the student and try to work out what this is, so that the student develops a better foundation and becomes more independent. My second secret is to have fun, make...

I believe that the best strategy to teaching is to identify misconceptions and carefully build up understanding from the basics.

...a junior at the University of Arizona studying Chemical Engineering. I began tutoring underclassmen students in many mathematics and science based courses for the Chemical Engineering Honor Society. From that experience I learned that having a solid understanding of the basics is the best way to learn new concepts. As a current student I understand the struggles that many of you are dealing with. I can bring a fresh perspective to these topics, and share...
