Award-Winning STAAR Tutors in Arlington, TX

Nazish ...and elementary math. In my experience, prepping students in reading and phonics is the most enjoyable for me because of the range of techniques that can be used to teach them. As an educator, as much as I stress the importance of fun and playful learning, I am a strong proponent of structured learning as well. Molding young children's minds means providing a strong path but at the same time letting them tread that path...

Michael ...and SAT test strategies. While I have been trained to tutor all core subjects, tutoring Mathematics has always brought me the greatest joy in life. Through my years working as a tutor, I have found that "all work and no play" makes students tired and yields to difficulty with focus. I overcome this by rewarding positive progress with fun sessions, game days, trivia, or a reward to encourage determination and reinforce students' resolve. When I...

Emily ...for a trip to New Zealand and Australia, while earning a certification in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) and Teaching Pronunciation from Oxford Seminars and Eastfield College, respectively. I used these qualifications to journey to the city of Krasnoyarsk, in Siberia, Russia, where for two years I taught English language comprehension classes and exam preparatory classes focused on argumentative style essays and mathematical analysis essays. I taught group classes of children, teenagers,...

Gaylin ...few years and now call Dallas home. I still feel like a tourist here, so finding all the museums and landmarks that I have always heard about is awesome. I am a part of lovely organization that does community service. I am a novice do it yourself person. At this time, I am trying to become a "grill master," let's just say I have some homework in this area. Thank you for taking the time...

Alicia ...with a non-profit algebra prep company for two years while beginning my graduate program at Texas Woman's University. Currently, I am focused on my graduate studies and training as a future School Psychologist, and I am working on several research projects pertaining to children with learning disabilities and deficits in executive functions (particularly working memory). In the spring of 2015, I will teach an undergraduate course in developmental psychology at Texas Woman's University. I have...

Rohini ...peer academic coordinator in several of my science courses, including Biology I, Organic Chemistry, Microbiology, and Ecology. These roles required me to lead weekly on-campus study sessions with other students in the classes and interactively review course material. Prior to each session, I met with the professor to discuss methods I would implement in order to promote the success of fellow peers. Because I grew up with a brother who has a significant learning disability,...

Jonathan ...moral epistles: “[P]art of the joy in learning is that it puts me in a position to teach; nothing, however outstanding and however helpful, will ever give me any pleasure if the knowledge is to be for my benefit alone. If wisdom were offered me on the one condition that I should keep it shut away and not divulge it to anyone, I should reject it. There is no enjoying the possession of anything valuable...

Connor ...excelled in undergraduate coursework pertaining to these subjects and have prior experience in assisting pre-professional (pre-medical and pre-nursing) students looking to succeed in their required general science classes. My tutoring methodology is dependent on the establishment of a strong conceptual framework, and subsequent application of theory through practice problems (the best way to master any pure science). I frequently employ the use of problem sets and practice tests to monitor my students' progress.... Students develop independent learning skills through intuition-driven study habits. I teach all of my students to favor an intuitive understanding of material over rote memorization.
