Award-Winning Trigonometry Tutors serving Blaine, MN

...year old who has some learning disabilities. I also spent a year as a TA for an algebra 1 class working with students with similar challenges, ADHD, Dyslexia, and Processing Gaps. I've also done volunteer tutoring in Chemistry and Essay writing. I am flamboyantly nerdy: especially about Math, Medicine, Chemistry, and Politics. I currently am a Wilderness Emergency Medical Technician. I love the theater, being outdoors - backpacking, kayaking, and nordic skiing, reading, swing dancing,...

...love and respect for themselves, others, and their environment occurs through an open sharing of ideas; when the voice of each student is heard, and environment evolves where students feel free to express themselves. I believe children have greater respect for their tutors, their peers, and the lessons presented when they feel safe and sure of what is expected of them. In setting fair and consistent rules initially and stating the importance of every activity,...

...main motivation for tutoring is simply that I love physics and math, and find them immensely beautiful. I want to share that love and illustrate concepts visually and intuitively rather than through mechanical computation. There's a quote I can't track down along the lines of "Do not attempt a proof until it is almost obvious" which guides my teaching philosophy. Outside of tutoring, I play classical piano, have worked in book conservation, and enjoy reading...

I enjoy teaching math because to the student who doesn't understand, it is a riddle with no answer. By teaching them how to recognize the type of problem and how to decode the clues, the student gets to be on the other side of the riddle, the side on which they solve it and feel good about it.

A former math teacher in Minnesota, I moved to North Carolina to do more dancing and see a different part of the world. I've worked as both a math teacher and in banking, so I know what you need to know for 'real life.' Most recent subjects taught: Algebra 1 and 2, Pre-Calculus.

...khanacademy, letting me learn more about math, physics, and other subjects than I could through school. However, sometimes it was difficult to find the resources I needed to learn as much as I was capable of learning. I chose to tutor on this website so that I could help other motivated students in that situation, and so that I could share my passion for math and physics with students who might be having more trouble...

...a passionate mathematics educator with teaching experience at both university and secondary levels. I have a natural talent for seeing subjects from the point of view of the student; I am not stuck in my own expertise. I am committed to finding effective strategies for facilitating understanding for each student, rather than just process. Special notes for Competition Math: I placed first in the Twin Cities (St. Paul / Minneapolis, MN) HS league twice, with...

...to work with students and to facilitate their learning and school engagement. I have graduated recently enough to remember what school and class are like. It's an exciting time in life, but it can bring challenges too, at any level of education. That's why I'm here to collaborate with any students who can benefit from my tutoring. I hope to show clarity, professionalism, and respect in helping students master their work and continue to feel...

...I find little more rewarding than seeing something a student has been struggling with finally "click." It is immensely validating for me as a tutor, as well as a triumph for the student. Those moments are the most important of any tutoring session. They help motivate students and give them confidence to tackle the next subject, and promote a deeper understanding of the subject matter that often doesn't occur in class. In a lot of...

I am a current Ph.D. student at the University of Minnesota studying social psychology. I received a B.A. in Psychology and Mathematics/Statistics from Luther College in 2016, as well as completing a minor in environmental studies. I was a math tutor for three years as an undergraduate and worked primarily with first and second-year undergraduates in Pre-calculus and Calculus I.

I believe a fundamental understanding of math and science allows students to properly analyze any situation and learn how to obtain solutions. I will work with all my passion and energy to impart fundamental understanding in order to enable students to think critically and solve problems in unique ways.

I graduated from Lawrence University with a B.A. in both math and physics and a minor in computer science. I have experience tutoring high school students in calculus and helping college students with their homework for intro physics and math courses. I love math and enjoy helping others understand and master concepts that they are struggling with.

...belief that Math is the music of the universe, and would be excited to help with your everyday homework or help you prep for the SAT exam. Math can be just as beautiful as a Mozart Sonata, or a Puccini Aria, and I try to convey not only the knowledge but the excitement that mathematical success can bring. In my spare time, I play Kerbal Space Program, Dungeons and Dragons, and prepare for my next...

...teach and learn. Since graduating from Concordia, I have worked as a high school Math Teacher (teaching Geometry, Algebra 2, Pre-Calculus and AP Calculus), a PowerSchool Administrator and Technology Integration Specialist, and an Instructional Designer. As a teacher, I taught students in grades 9-12 and was an advisor to students in grades 7-12. I currently hold a teaching license in the state of Minnesota for Math (5-12) and Spanish (K-12). While I can tutor in...

...specialty when it comes to teaching or tutoring, but I have also been trained in techniques for tutoring all subjects included in standardized tests, especially the SAT. My tutoring style comes from my firm belief that a student will grow when they genuinely have their interest piqued, and the best way to do that is for their instructor to genuinely show passion and interest in the subject in order to pass that excitement on to...

...high school students in test prep since 2017. I love working with students, and I've found that the best way to teach them is by learning along with them. I have learned (or relearned) a lot of subject matter while working as a teacher, and this has helped me relate to students the best by understanding the learning process they are going through. My goal for students is for them to be confident with everything...

...assistant of Math 155r (Combinatorics) at Harvard University, where I got my B.A. in Applied Mathematics in 2017, and will be teaching (most likely) Calculus starting in the fall of 2017, while I begin my Ph.D. in Mathematics at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities. I have worked as a tutor (ranging from middle school to high school/SAT math) since 2010, and have also enjoyed tutoring other subjects, such as SAT English, physics, and chemistry....

...reading and English portions of the ACT. I was also ranked in the top 5% of students who took the PSAT. Essay writing is another specialty of mine. I have qualified for the National Speech and Debate Association tournament and have helped students write speeches and essays, as well as helping them improve their public speaking skills. I believe in the importance of education. I want to prepare others to reach success in their lives...

...for more than five years and have found a great fit with Connections Academy. I continue to focus on one important attribute to high teacher efficacy, which is the notion that even under the most extreme circumstances, I believe that students can learn math no matter what. In those regards, I realize that students all learn differently and it's my goal to find out who you are and how you do math. I will use...

...my Bachelor's degree in Biochemistry from the UW-Madison, before moving to Minnesota to go to graduate school and study molecular evolution. For the last 12 years however I have been a middle and high school teacher. I have taught a large variety of subjects in that time though chemistry (all levels) and genetics are my favorite. I prefer to begin tutoring with a new student by asking a lot of questions to help me identify...
