Award-Winning Test Prep Tutors serving Mesa, AZ

...teaching philosophy is pretty simple: communicate your passion for the subject and make it relatable to the student's own interests and passions. I've found these approaches to be really effective in my years as a teaching assistant, student success coach, and educator. By working one-on-one with students and identifying their strengths and passions, my mission as a Varsity Tutor is to make sure that learning a new subject (or going over an old one) can...

...both in person then online extensively (as most of found ourselves in early 2020 and then too long after that). Being a curious bird by nature, I found the cultures and languages of Southeast Asia to be captivating. I asked as many questions of my students as they did of me and that helped us relate and work together. Some of my proudest times there (and when I returned home teaching online and in class)...

...mostly on junior high math and algebra. I was also the math club sponsor at the campus where I spent the most time. More recently, I became certified to tutor students preparing to take the ACT exam. In addition to junior high math and ACT prep, I also have a passion for U.S. History. One of my favorite professors at the Naval Academy is a subject matter expert on the Civil War and WWII. I have...

...school students in subjects ranging from 5th grade reading to geometry to the SAT. While I am happy and able to tutor a number of subjects, I am most passionate about Test Prep because these scores are very important to students, and I enjoy helping them to conquer the test and succeed. My teaching philosophy can be described as a coaching style in which, like athletics, I believe learning the subject matter, good techniques, and...

...professor for a local community college, and as a Freshman Volleyball coach. My absolute FAVORITE subject to teach and tutor is literature. I love to read (any genre), and one of my favorite things to encourage in students is a love of reading and literature. While my love is literature, I truly enjoy teaching and tutoring any area of English (writing, conventions, etc.). Outside of school, I spend as much time as I can reading...

I am a second year student at Emory University working towards a B.S. in Physics and Mathematics. I tutor in all levels of physics and math, and specialize at the high school AP and SAT level. I have hundreds of hours of experience tutoring in these subjects, and I love to help my students see the beauty in physics and mathematics.

...teach. I am a chronic adventure-seeker and a lifelong learner. My favorite aspect of the current landscape of education is the use and implementation of technology. It allows us to explore, connect and be free. With my current dissertation, I am hoping to prove that the modern student may actually learn more efficiently in an online environment. When I’m not teaching, my passion is spending time with my wife and my family traveling, fishing, surfing...

...I have always loved math and did much better in it than any other class subject. I would feel stupid in class when they were teaching other class and super smart when it came to math. I was considered smart by people who are way smarter than me. But because I excelled in one thing that they did not they thought I was doing great in everything else which I did not. I now have...

...then on I was always willing to work hard to learn. Learning can unlock the world around you and open up exciting opportunities in life. Working with computers was always easy since I worked hard in math. Math is one of my favorite subjects to tutor. I also like to teach debate (public speaking) and basic reading and writing skills. Last but not least, I also love teaching computer technology! I am also a certified...

...I strongly support the importance of education because of its ability to empower and improve people's lives. I have made it a priority of mine to tutor in my community as it allows me the opportunity to give back to the students of Phoenix.

I am friendly and warm and my style is sincere and easy going. The students I undertake make major gains in their school assessments as I use different techniques in teaching so the child or adult understand the subject in an easy...

I'm astrobiologist and PhD student, with a deep love of teaching science. I have 4+ years of teaching environmental science and geology at the college level, and 2+ years of tutoring experience in astronomy. I also have considerable experience with Python, especially in terms of scientific applications and programming. (Ask me about network theory-based potential biosignatures for exoplanets!)

...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 about what is truly spicy or not with my wife. I also love to play tennis (I used to give lessons), volleyball, basketball, soccer, trumpet, other video games, hike, read textbooks, especially history (yes really), read sci-fi and watch it as well. I have a passion for movies, which...

...of Science in Anthropology at Arizona State University in 2024. I have worked with many students, while in college, I worked as a Teaching Assistant, Student Grader, and even volunteered as a peer mentor. I would like to be a support for students who may be struggling and want someone who will be patient and understanding with them, and someone they can feel comfortable around. I have experience working with students in English and Anthropology/Archaeology...

...and discovering several approaches to solving it. Students that work through a problem until they "get stuck" are already learning a lot more than if they had never attempted it. I believe that tutors are the most helpful when the student has already struggled with a concept, because the tutor can hone in on the specifics. Math is a skill that gets better with practice, like sports or music. I keep my arithmetic skills sharp...

...though schools try their best they can't account for every learning style. My goal is to adapt my instruction to each student's preferences in order to help them as much as I can. In my free time, I like to play ice hockey (or just skate), knit, do yoga, and read, especially epic fantasy (I may or may not have all the Lord of the Rings books memorized). I also enjoy experimenting and developing gluten...
