Award-Winning Science Tutors serving Catalina Foothills, AZ

...back to college with a memory of hating math. I made sure to take extra time and care with these students and while doing so, I got to watch as the light bulbs would go off and their dislike of math began to change. I understand that math and physics can feel like learning a new language. The concepts aren't always intuitive at first. I like to approach tutoring with patience and the ability to...

I look forward to tutoring kids because I hope that my students will understand the multiple paths that history can show them. I hope to ascertain the best method for each student to learn.

My main goal in teaching and tutoring is to simplify concepts that initially seem difficult and to reduce frustration in math and science by building students' confidence in their problem-solving abilities. Math and science become much easier with individualized attention and instruction! Aside...

We all learn differently, but in the end we all still learn the same things.

...with a wide age range and with a variety of learning styles helped me appreciate the different methodologies of learning and teaching the materials. Teaching styles vary when going over algebra and basic calculus to organic chemistry to human anatomy, but my tutoring style begins by talking to the student to understand the personality of the student. By talking, this helps both myself and the student see how they will learn the material. In my...

...for comprehension, write using evidence, problem solve using diagrams, and finally, study using a strategy. When any deficiencies have been addressed within the subject area, then the student becomes capable of understanding new concepts and then continuing successful progress on their own.

I graduated with a B.S. in Physics and currently work as an electrical engineer as I pursue my M.S. in Electrical Engineering. I am a scientist at heart and enjoy helping people find their spark in learning. My approach to learning which has helped many students is to teach proficiency in the skill, followed by, or in parallel with, explaining the concept from as basic a principle as the student would like.

...Similar to a hard science and a lab report, humanities is a soft science, in which I always incorporate the scientific method to have students prove their point and disprove the opposing view.

I believe I am best suited for the role because I always put the student first in everything....
