Award-Winning Science Tutors serving Mesa, AZ

...tutoring these subjects since my junior year in high school (over 5 years!). In my last two semesters at ASU I taught astronomy labs to undergraduate students from all sorts of majors. The astronomy courses contained a significant amount of math which had to be taught as well. This helped me become a more effective tutor because it allowed me to expand my teaching experience. I believe you can never fully understand a subject until...

I am currently a master's student in Engineering with over 4 years of tutoring experience. I am competent in a range of subjects including calculus, chemistry, SAT and ACT prep, and biology. Student achievement is my number one priority!

I am a graduate from Northern Arizona University. I got my degree in Special and Elementary Education. This is my 4th year of teaching. I am a first grade teacher. I tutored students prior to teaching in grades kindergarten-8th in math and reading. I love to travel in my free time.

...and after-school programs where I used to work. My favorite subjects are math/science and I have tutored algebra 1, geometry, algebra 2, trigonometry, pre-calculus, calculus, statistics, and SAT math in the past. My goal for my students is for them to understand and appreciate the material so that they will be interested and want to learn on their own. I teach my students what it takes to succeed and give them confidence in their own...

...was in biological chemistry with a math minor from the University of Utah. When I was in High School, I was teaching Algebra 3 & 4 to my colleagues at the same time as I was taking the class. This incident has elevated my methods of teaching. I will go above and beyond to tutor my students according to their understanding abilities and learning tactics. In college, I continued the path of teaching Chemistry and...

...school I leaned into corporate law and finance. Between law school and college I've pretty much covered every topic under the sun! In my spare time, I enjoy reading (especially mystery novels), pretending I'm a chef, and meditating. I have extensive experience tutoring family and friends at the middle school, high school, and college level in just about every topic, especially math and science courses. As I progressed through law school, my reading and writing skills...

...levels in elementary schools in special education classrooms and general education inclusion settings. I enjoy tutoring students in all subjects and find that I am most passionate about Reading and Math. I advocate for students and believe that all children can learn but differ in the ways they learn and the timeframe in which they learn. Each student brings unique qualities, talents and interests to learning and it is my job to use those to...

...spend a great deal of time helping my students with history, government, and English as well. As a teacher I strive to develop in 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...

...visualize what they are learning and apply it to familiar circumstances. This allows material to sink in and be retained long term. When material is described in a manner a student can relate to, it's more understood and that familiar example is better remembered in a testing situation. I have experience teaching a Biology Lab for non-science major college students from freshman to seniors. It was the experience that ultimately showed me what I was...

...also completed several AP and collegiate level English courses and enjoy helping those around me. Anatomy and science courses are my favorite to tutor, as I use them every day and find them very interesting. I tutor various levels of math, English, writing, and science, and like to let students contribute insight on the areas they need help with, and I provide feedback and knowledge from there. I believe that this increases student confidence and...

I believe that every student can build confidence in learning. We will do so together! I have been working with Middle and Elementary School students for over 15 years, with successful outcomes. I look forward to working with you or your student!

...have taught a wide variety of students. I have experience with adult returning students, those with learning disabilities, and pre-health students of all kinds. Personally, I don't lecture students. When students are seeking tutoring it is usually because the professors lecture failed to teach the student in a way that is best for them. I believe in engaging the student by having a conversation using visual examples and real life scenarios to ensure that the...

Hey! I'm a rising sophomore at Georgia Institute of Technology. I love teaching and got a lot of practice from tutoring my brother. Physics is probably my favorite subject to teach. In my spare time, I produce music and play/watch a ton of basketball! (Feel free to talk to me about either)

Being creative is one of the most important parts of our lives. I believe that everyone should have a creative outlet, whether that be music, art or anything that can let your mind run free.

My name is John, and I am an elementary special education teacher from Arizona. I've also taught middle school special education as well as high school Geography. I have over 20 years experience working with children as a teacher, an aide, and as a coach.

...factors that lead to long term retention and overall success. I currently captain an underdog roller derby team, and play for one of the highest ranked leagues in the nation. Mentoring is a large part of my role as an all star player and I spend Saturdays with our junior league helping them learn skills and develop a high level of sportsmanship in the process. Whether it is coaching youth in education, banked track roller...

...helped difficult concepts to "click" for me. Most of these techniques associate silly stories or acronyms with concepts, as psychological studies have shown that 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...

I am a Microbiologist, working in industry jobs for the past 2 years. I majored in Molecular Biology at Brigham Young University, and took 4 years of Chemical Engineering classes. I love helping students learn and really understand concepts and subjects.

...a passion for the sciences, because they include a broad range of branches that give opportunities to ask questions and explore a vast array of content. In college I have tutored algebra, geometry, as well as trigonometry. I enjoy teaching mathematics since they tend to be logical and very straight forward. Something that one of my mentor teachers said sticks with me to this day: "They don't care how much you know, unless they know...

...to forget and need to review previous knowledge. Each time we relearn material it is easier and is more likely to be permanent. Vygotsy's theory of the "zone of proximal development" or ZPD states that a person will learn best within the range of their current development. If it's boring, it is to low. If it is confusing, it is to high. Adjusting materials (scaffolding) or providing support are two ways to provide optimal learning....
