Award-Winning Science Tutors serving Glendale, AZ

...were completely new to science. As part of my degree program, I have taught several different science classes. One of my favorite parts of being a doctoral student has been teaching and working one-on-one with students. To me, there is nothing more rewarding than seeing something 'click' for a student. My interdisciplinary training in biology and materials science has taught me how to communicate complex subjects in a way that anyone can understand. I am...

...faulty. Over time, however, I developed a keener sense for the hurdles that students sometimes face when learning, as well as the most efficient ways to overcome them. I also developed more patience and empathy through tutoring - I often remembered feeling the same confusion about a topic that my students were feeling the first time I had learned the material. The skills and perspective I developed through this tutoring experience have certainly made me...

...people are more likely to remember a concept if it is tied to something unusual and memorable. That being said, I believe that every student has their own unique learning style, and so I am always happy to adjust my tutoring style to the needs of a student. Otherwise, I hold tutoring sessions by reviewing a concept and tying it into helpful learning devices, working through practice problems with a student while answering any questions...

...age to graduate level, as well as working with students with special needs. I particularly enjoy tutoring mathematics, biology, and helping students prepare for standardized tests. I can also tutor in writing and reading, since I have experience as a professional copy editor. My focus when tutoring is student understanding. I believe academic goals are more readily achievable when concepts are understood, rather than formulas memorized. When helping students prepare for standardized tests I focus...

...school to undergraduate. Through these endeavors, I've grown incredibly passionate about mentoring aspiring college/medical students and teaching them the essentials of crafting a competitive application (personal statement/resume/extracurriculars). My favorite aspect of tutoring is fostering a 1-on-1 connection with my students and truly adapting to their specific needs, goals, and personal circumstances. I have earned 99th Percentile scores on the MCAT, SAT, and ACT, and I am excited to apply my expertise to your amazing academic...

...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 level math, reading and physics.

...classmates in courses like anatomy and physiology. I enjoy finding ways to tutor that relate to the student so dry topics like the order of operations can be easier to remember. I believe that math and science are key in getting further in education, which in itself is invaluable. Due to my background in math, I am very comfortable tutoring pre-algebra, algebra I, algebra II, geometry, and industrial engineering as needed. In addition, I am...

I am currently an mechanical engineering major at Arizona State University. I work with a student organization on campus that designs, tests, and works on satellites and satellite systems. I enjoy hiking, running, and going to a movie or bowling with friends.

...able to recap and teach the subject to another individual. Therefore, I provide not only the details in a subject, but also a bigger picture motif that enables the student to make real-life connections with what they are learning and gives them enough understanding to be able to "teach" the topic. As someone who recently graduated Arizona State University with a B.S. in Microbiology, I understand the hardships that many students must face in large...

...in Molecular and Cellular Biology from the University of Arizona. I've been on academic probation and truly understand what it's like to struggle with material. That struggle helps me to be a better teacher. I start medical school this fall, which goes to show that it does not matter if you have a difficult start. What does matter is how you choose to respond to challenges and what you do to overcome them.

...assistant for biology, advanced biology, and chemistry high school students in the Boston area. Since starting school at ASU, I have worked as a teaching assistant for Microbiology labs for over two years now. I absolutely love teaching and tutoring students in biological sciences! Through my experiences and studies I have developed a passion for working with students. I believe I can help students to understand complex ideas, develop critical thinking skills, and build confidence...

...my tutoring: every student is different, and I adapt my teaching methods to those differences. The most important thing I do is make sure each student understands what they're trying to learn, not just tricks to get through their homework. If there's some basic skills missing, I make sure to go back and polish those up before getting back to the main problem. At the end of the day, I want the student to to...

...honors course, the Human Event. Because of this mentorship from the faculty, writing is definitely one of my favorite things to teach. Tutoring is all about having a balance- I want my students to feel relaxed and at-ease with the direction of study but also to be productive and engaged in the material. Tutoring is about working together so that he/she can solve it, not me giving the student the answers. Many times students know...

I tutor a wide range of subjects but the sciences are my personal specialty. I am fascinated with the building blocks of matter and love learning and teaching about them. If you need help with biology, chemistry, physics, organic chemistry, physiology, or microbiology, I can be especially helpful. What about standardized...

...my students, free thinking, and analytical skills. These goals are primarily achieved through a Socratic method of instruction and questioning technique. In addition to the aforementioned technique I also take creative and differentiated approaches to the material so that my students can relate to it from their own experiences, and have a broad understanding. In my spare time I love to hike, play Lego-Batman, play board and card games, and argue philosophical subjects or just...

...to do Crossfit which I am enjoying a lot. This past summer I worked with the Tucson Big Brothers Big Sisters picking up donations from all over the area. My teaching style is one that I like to think is extremely adaptable. Every student is different and so are their learning styles and preferences. My goal is to make the subject I am tutoring not only easier but fun. Math is my favorite subject in...
