Award-Winning PSAT Tutors in Bernalillo County, NM

I believe people have a natural curiosity for knowledge and a thirst to make informed, independent personal life choices. For myself, I have an unyielding drive to help others learn in order to become their better selves, to understand bigger concepts, and to engage in critical, creative thinking.

...double majoring in Computer Science and Sociology at the University of New Mexico. I'll be honest, I'm not as professional of a tutor as I wish I was. I'm used to tutoring Freshmen in college for their finals so I'm more comfortable with a "friendship" vibe with students. I like when people see me as more of a friend that's helping them on their homework or an older brother teaching them about something new. I...

As a tutor, I believe that it is my job to help get students to the next step, whatever that may be! Working on an undergraduate in biology, I specialize in mathematics and sciences, and am confident I can help students to learn and excel in these subjects. I am eager for us to begin our lessons!

...key to success. I also believe that everyone is capable of learning, but the largest factor is the teacher's ability to use visual, verbal, and logical learning styles to clear any confusion. I have completed math courses from pre-algebra, algebra 1 & 2, geometry, pre-calculus, trigonometry, and calculus 1 & 2. Additionally, I have completed courses in physics, biology, chemistry and english. I am available for tutoring sessions in the evenings at Zimmerman library, online...

...with students confidently and clearly. Through these same experiences I also learned flexibility in learning and teaching styles. I have a knack for quickly developing rapport with students. I have been a classroom teacher, an instructor, and a tutor for more than 10 years. I have tutored public and private high school students and college athletes at a Division I university. I have taught classes in a variety of subjects from high school to adults....

...working with students from elementary age to college age, in a variety of subjects. I love to write, read, and learn about history and cultures - so if those are areas you struggle with, or want someone to geek over them with you, I'm here to help :) When I'm not tutoring, I enjoy hiking, exploring new places (like New Mexico - where I recently moved!), and watching the new hot thing on Netflix!... I like to engage with students on a personal level. What are you passionate about? What challenges you? How can we bring the two together to map a path toward success?

...am passionate about international issues, immigration and the American political system, and am currently volunteering at a local legal non-profit here in New Mexico. I will attend Stanford Law School in the fall, where I plan to study civil rights and liberties and constitutional law. During my time in school, I found that I learned best by studying with others. My time both assisting and learning from my peers has proven to me the value...

I believe that a proper education is crucial in this day and age for all students. As a tutor, I hope to help my students ensure that they fully understand all of their course material so that they are set up for academic success.... You haven't truly learned a subject until you can explain it to an idiot.... Introduce myself and gauge the student's proficiency in the subject.... I can't. A student must have their own personal motivation to learn and succeed. All I can do is to remind them of that motivation.

...make a positive impact on a young person's life. Generally, I work better when I am tutoring writing, literature, or history; however, I am comfortable working with students in most subjects. In terms of personal interests, I love doing anything outside. Fishing, hiking, running, and camping are some of my favorite activities. There's nothing I love more than being in a beautiful place in nature. I also love all forms of music and am teaching...

...skills that I am more than happy to share with others. With respect to my tutoring philosophy, I firmly believe that the best teachers teach what they are most knowledgeable about. With that said, to be an effective tutor, it is crucial that I not only share my knowledge but continue to be invested in how the field continues to change as well as the demands on students in learning a language in our modern,...
